Default For those using Turtle Wax Ice
Are you using the Turtle Wax Ice polish or the Turtle Wax spray wax went to get some and didnt know what if any difference there was between the two. Thanks

I have a bottle of the Ice polish. I bought it because of the hype a year or so ago. It works fine, but it isn't better than several others I have used.

I use the polish and after a couple of washes will use the spray to get some shine back. Like the other poster, it is not much different thatn some of the other name brand waxes

NOW you tell me. LOL

I just bought some to try out (because of what I read about it), but haven't used any yet. I might just take it back before trying it.

Ice is great on a black bike because it doesn't turn white in the toothpick areas you can't reach when you are in a hurry. It works like most of the others I use as far as shine or quality of waxing. I do notice a bead when finishing off with Lemon Pledge though.

I think the polish works better and seams to last longer. The spray is good for the quick polishes. Been using Ice on my cars for a few years and it has held up well. Easy to apply too.

Haven't used the Turtle wax stuff, but have used and continue to, Meguiar's "Ultimate Quik Wax" spray polish. Fantastic instant shine on Gelcoat (boat), car and sikle paint! Highly recommend.
I have no conection with Meguiar's (kinda wish I did tho!)

I prefer Mother's products and use the "Showroom Detailer" spray for quick detailing/touch-ups. But I still prefer Mother's carnuba wax to really polish it when detailing it for real.
