    The 18th is a sale on their fallout remover aka IronX + a couple free towels
    They say it doesnt smell bad and $15 for 500ml it's a good price. I may try that out since I need some iron remover for next spring

    Interesting. Might have to try a few out.

    The bottle and sprayer looks identical to Adam's.

    They had to search around to find bottles and sprayers to fit the US market. they had that junk that waxaddict uses and TRC said change it. It's possible they use the same supplier. I hope their products are nothing like Adam's

    Same here. I'm over the hype of Adam's.

    My last shipment from waxaddict had different sprayers. Haven't tried them yet. Same small sprayer just different looking.

    I’ve tried most of the WoWos products I got for Christmas, and they’re pretty underwhelming for the most part.

    The waterless wash, interior cleaner, and interior finish work pretty well. The interior finish left a nice look, and smells great.

    Showstopper was what I was most interested in. It doesn’t claim to do a whole lot. It only says
    • GLOSS AND LOTS OF IT: Wowo’s SHOW STOPPER Is a Pure Gloss Enhancer For Your Vehicle’s Paint

    It even says it doesn’t last long. It just says it will make it really shine, and just for a day or so. It’s supposed to be a “finishing touch” for a car show or just to make it pop for a little while. Since gloss is its only claim, I hoped it would do that better than other products, but it doesn’t. Pretty much any wax, spray wax, or sealant will do as well or better. Nowhere near the effect Beadmaker or any spray wax I have on hand. Since it’s no easier to use than those, adds no protection, and they all last a few weeks at least, there’s literally no reason to buy this in my opinion.

    I only tried the Crystal Sealant on one panel. Can’t speak for hydrophobicity or longevity, but it doesn’t look great, and is streaky as hell.

    The Tyre Restorer is straight garbage. Just a runny, watery mess. I even tried spraying on an applicator instead of directly on the tire, and it still just ran everywhere and didn’t stick or shine at all.

    I’ve never felt let down by a Rag Company product before, but I’m very disappointed in this line overall. I won’t be ordering any of this again.

    Well that's shitty. I was going to purchase a few products in the spring.

    As usual, it’s just my opinion. Others may really like it. I’m pretty surprised The Rag Company spoke so highly of it. Those guys are usually pretty spot on. They went to great lengths to hype it up, so I’m not sure what they see in it. Hopefully they aren’t headed toward pushing junk to increase profits like some others have done.
    I’d like to see another opinion from someone here, but I can’t recommend spending the money.

    @War Machine were you able to test out their Clean Wheel Concentrate? Wonder if it’s any good.

    @War Machine never mind it’s not even out yet, I like the fact that’s it’s concentrated. I tend to find myself going for concentrates more. More bang for buck, if it works good.
