    Re: Ultimate Quik Wax: Added video to the first post!

    Great Video Mark, i could tell you applied it to the glass, car looks great too by the way

    Now that i have had UQW for about a month and a half i have almolst used my whole bottle, i already bought a second bottle at Auto Zone so no worries there

    But i was also not a big fan of spray waxes before UQW. I used the Tech Wax Spray once on my truck and after i was all finished i realized i could have laid down a regular application of Tech Wax 2.0 Paste or Liquid. But after using UQW i loved the way it awent on and how it came off with ease. IMO UQW is Meguiars's best spray wax. This is a fast and easy maintence tool and what makes it even more special is it has Hydrophobic Polymer Technology. Truly is a great product.

    Haven't tried Aquawax.

    I have tried other spray waxes, and this is my favorite. It is the easiest, least temper mental, definitely leaves the slickest finish (a week later you can still absolutely feel that the surface of the paint is extremely slick), and sheets water off like no spray wax I have ever seen.

    I use it once a week. you can use it more, or less- whatever works for you.

    Much better. I still had some very light streaking is some areas, but another pass with a clean microfiber took care of it. I tend to use VERY light pressure when wiping off products which is probably why this happens. When you have a black DD, you want to take every precaution to prevent inducing defects. This is just one of many habits that I have developed to help.

    I will say that UQW does seem to leave a very slick finish. Call me crazy, but I also noticed some light filling abilities. Anyone else see this?

    I have, and used OCW fairly regularly...until I got my hands on UQW. Now it sits in the cupboard...

    Re: Ultimate Quik Wax: MUST READ - WARNING

    Anytime I've tried a product that was a "wax as you dry" type, it ALWAYS streaked.

    Now it's different with Last Touch. I use it full strength on wet vehicles since it is dilutable.

    I *think* his streaking issues stemmed from Applying the UQX to the entire car while it was still partially wet. The water could have made it hard for the wax to fully dry, and thus it streaked when he attempted to remove it.

    I too had no streaking issues. I wash, then dried my vehicle, and followed it with the UQX application.

    I loaded my towel with two sprays. I then misted each panel once.......the hood twice. Wiped in and flipped the towel and buffed dry.

    You know, per the instructions. Guess what? They were right.

    I had no streaking problems at all. None. Not even on the glass and it was used in full sun.
