SilvrLT 06-22-2008, 09:37 PM Ok let me start off by saying WOW I have never used a product that as delivered as well as turbowax!!!
First I used the shampoo to was the car, I worked great lots of suds and removed bugs and dirt pritty much effortlessly
Second I used the swirl Mark remover, Great product removed all of the swirls and even remived all of the light scratches
Next I used the pre wax cleaner, This product worked well went onn easy and removed all surface contamenits, the cars finish was noticibly smoother.
Then on to the car wax, Turbo wax car wax Is the easiest wax I have ever used in my life!! went on easy and wiped off with no effort at all I am throughly impressed!!!!!!
I also like the tire gel It leaves a nice dark wet look, not glossy and shiny and it dosent sling!! Great product!!
The las minuite detailer works well it left the paint smooth and "wet" looking removed bugs pritty well too.
I havent used the spray wax yet or the LVR cleaner but I will post my result as soon as I do, Ok enough rambling on tho the before and after pics.

Was this all done by hand? O_O
Tr1p1ng 07-09-2008, 12:53 PM looks good, did you use an orbital buffer or did you just use a microfiber cloth?
LamboW9 07-09-2008, 01:04 PM i'll view when i get home...i'm doing clay bar and full cleaner wax and paste waxing when the rain gets outta here....an i'm going to take b4 and after pictures to compare to some of turbowax's rides so i can see if its a big difference or not, with all the testimonials i'm getting curious
powerz 07-09-2008, 01:28 PM looks great must have been a pain on a brand new car
jk looks good
occsdude 07-09-2008, 01:33 PM why did you put an ss badge on it?
Tazmanian_Dvl 07-09-2008, 01:42 PM UMMMM maybe because he has an SS/NA. Yea I think that could definately be the reason...
powerz 07-09-2008, 01:42 PM why did you put an ss badge on it?
shhhhh
08 Cobalt Sport
G85 SS 07-09-2008, 01:47 PM Does look very very clean. Good job, esp. with a black car. just make sure you keep on top of it. Little tip for you, use quick detailer once a day and you won't need to wax but every couple of months if not longer than that. It will keep that look on the car for a very long time if kept up with.
EDIT - I see you have the TC grill...lol :cssNET:

did you have any spider scratches in yours? And if so, did the swirl remover help to make them disappear? I have their entire kit but only had enough time to wash before it started to rain.

How did the car shampoo did ? :twothumbs or :thumbsdow:red:

dubbleduecer 07-09-2008, 10:39 PM you should have take all the money you spent on those wheels, grill, badges, to make it look like at SS, and actually bought an SS.....???? your car LOOKS fast..... you should get a high rise spoiler and roll down your window and yell WEEEEEEENNNN as loud as you can when you WOT... that should fool everyone.

How did the car shampoo did ? :twothumbs or :thumbsdow:red:
the car shampoo was really impressive. Suds well and I only have to wash the car once. With most products, I usually wash it twice just to make sure I get all of the dirt off. I helped my friend with a scion tc wax and polish his car with an orbital buffer. Just from the shampoo, our cars didn't look any different. Plus the water beads up like it would with a coat of wax applied to the body.
You definitely have my approval. Hopefully I'll get the time to use the rest of the products I bought.
Turbo Wax 07-09-2008, 11:58 PM ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^"I usually wash it twice just to make sure I get all of the dirt off"
Thats a report we get from many customers :twothumbs thank you for your feed back we appreciate it :cssNET:
Dont forget that ALL you need is 1 oz of shampoo vs 5 gallons of water, if you do it like that you can wash your car 16 times out of a 16 oz bottle, good for you bad for us :lol::lol:

Please post some pictures when you get a chance to detail the ride :cssNET:
Deathscythe 07-10-2008, 12:00 AM anytime. I have no problem praising a good product. I just hope the swirl remover can get rid of the spider swirls in my paint job.
Turbo Wax 07-10-2008, 12:11 AM did you get our oxidation block ? do you have a buffer ? if so, with an orange pad you should see excellent results, our Swirl remover is a Professional body shop grade but we sell it to the general public, I usually put 2-4 small dots of product on the pad about the size of a dime ,I do a lot of the work on 4 for the speed on the porter cable
and...........................
Use with an air or electric Random Orbital Buffer, preferably with a 3/8 stroke. With electric use a medium to high setting. With air, make sure 90 psi is maintained at the tool when in use.
Shake well before using product.
Apply product either to surface to be buffed or directly to pad.
Buff using a light to medium pressure.
Work a 2' x 2' area.
Buff until most of product has disappeared, decreasing to light pressure as buffing is finished.
Wipe off any excess left with a dry microfiber towel.
If excess product slings onto adjacent panels or moldings, wipe off with a damp microfiber cloth before going to next panel to be buffed.
Deathscythe 07-10-2008, 12:14 AM sounds easy enough. not too sure about the oxidation block. If it didn't come with the bulk package deal you have on your website then I don't have it and will get it real soon.
Turbo Wax 07-10-2008, 09:05 AM If you purchase our entire kit, it should be there, if not send me a PM and I will send it FREE of charge !
G85 SS 07-10-2008, 02:35 PM did you have any spider scratches in yours? And if so, did the swirl remover help to make them disappear? I have their entire kit but only had enough time to wash before it started to rain.
From the looks of the car it did get rid of those spider scratches. The swirl remover from Turbo wax does work on that as well as Meguiars Scratch X. Then you need to follow up with the actual waxxing. Also, don't wash the car with dish soap, that will break down the wax in a shorter period of time. So spend the extra few bucks for some good car wash soap.
Deathscythe 07-10-2008, 10:46 PM I got the whole kit from turbowax, just haven't had the time to actually use all of it.

scratch x is a terrible product. the SR by turbowax is a GREAT remover of light stuff
LamboW9 07-11-2008, 07:38 AM scratch x works good for me as well <black car> altho G85 SS what are you talking about?...you wash with dish soap initially to get the majority of wax OFF the car so you can claybar and give it a proper waxing...i hope noone uses dawn dish soap for a routine washings
TheDaves413 07-11-2008, 12:56 PM you should have take all the money you spent on those wheels, grill, badges, to make it look like at SS, and actually bought an SS.....???? your car LOOKS fast..... you should get a high rise spoiler and roll down your window and yell WEEEEEEENNNN as loud as you can when you WOT... that should fool everyone.
:lol: You miserable little shit, whats a matter his slow car looks better than your fast car? :lol:

if your talking about my caar the wheels came stock and all I added was the grill ans SS badge just b/c I like the ss badge better than the sport one I could give a crap about going fast I just like to have a good looking car besides I dont think it matters if it is a 2.4l ss or a 2.4l sport it is still the same car so why not put the better of the 2 badges on?
Bronzee 07-12-2008, 01:58 AM The thing I found with the Turbo Wax products when I started using them, a year & a half ago, is their products don't have the same nasty residue that most other brands seem to. For instance after the wax has cured, the removal is easy, and there's hardly any residue at all, and certainly no powdery mess.
