    Wax in a sprayer? That’s not wax at all I don’t care what the company claims that’s detail spray but I am glad it worked out for you

    Yeah....solid cap. Never heard of it . I googled it and got this....
    La Cera Amarilla is a dust free Carnauba Based Wax that goes on and buffs off quick to clean, brighten, polish, and protect all clear coat finishes leaving an outstanding high gloss coating that lasts. La Cera Amarilla is a free flowing liquid-like paste that spreads and wipes off easily with no hard rubbing or powder or dust residue. It can be applied by hand or machine but we feel that La Cera Amarilla performs best when applied by hand!

    No it not a spray. It is a hard cap with a nozzle. It cleans and waxes got turned in to from a body shop that fixed my wife's car. It sets with a little haze and you just buff off.
    Thing I couldn't believe is all the black streaks and road tar it removed from the paint. You have to keep shaking the bottle while you apply it cause it will separate.
    It might be my favorite. Always used hard shell turtle wax before this beats that.

    This did that as well. Took me for ever to fund something that removes black streaks in white paint.

    Best I have found is a spray-on do-it-yourself product called hydro silics, (I think thats how it is spelled), one coat lasts for 6-8months, easy prep

    Aquawax works really good. Just spray it on the wet truck as you start to dry (after washing) and it leaves a great shine + protection. Really helps with water spots too. Also works good on the black trim.

    I tried aquawax for the first time last week. Washed a friends car and sprayed it on the wet car and dried it. I was pleasantly surprised by the gloss level and ease of use. Not sure how long it'll last or protect but you're right it does leave a nice deep shine. I like beadmaker better, even slicker and more glossy. And for longevity I prefer reload and/or hydro2.

    Hydrosilex is similar to reload from carpro. I haven't tried it but read about it and seems like a similar product.

    Looks like Collinite 845, which is also a great wax. And yes, it can be warmed up in hot water so you can put a spray nozzle on it to apply the product
