Turbo Wax 03-27-2006, 02:11 PM let me see if this works
kissmySS 03-27-2006, 06:56 PM Living in Canada SUCKS!!............lol
Question for you....?How much silicone content is in your product? hear lots about silicone in waxes and it leaving the white film on the car? do your products have silicone in them? if so how much more/little than the "other guys"
Thanks in advance.......
Turbo Wax 04-03-2006, 10:16 AM Sorry for the long delay but I want to give you a little more that just an answer, so here goes, I put a few other questions down the same path and I hope they answer your question/s.
1. Which Turbo Wax Products have silicone?
The paint protection, small amount, Tire gel, and 3 amigos, small amount.
2. In a 16 oz. bottle, what % is in it?
This is company proprietary formulary information and is not given out.
3. Does everyone else use silicone in their products?
In a word, No. Now, there are many reasons, one is the cost, silicone adds a significant cost to the product. Another is that not everyone knows how to formulate or blend silicone into their products to achieve the desired results.
4. Why the use of silicone?
Silicone does many things, one it adds lubricity to the product, another is, is a surface protectant within itself, another, it adhers to whatever surface it is attached to. Also it resists being washed off by regular PH balanced products.
5. Do carnauba products use silicone?
Some do, others use straight carnauba. Carnauba by itself is okay, and does many things, however, when it is subjected to elevated temperatures (125 degrees F), it burns of.
6. Is silicone harmful to the paint finish?
No. It does not possess a PH factor to be detrimental to the finish. Think about this, there are products in the silicone family in many of the hand lotions we use.
7. Why do we use silicone in our products?
To promote longevity of the waxed surface, provide protection to the surface it is put on, protection mainly from the elements, rain, sun, etc.
8. How do we know what silicone base product to use?
Most of this would be proprietary, but we arrived at this knowledge through constant research in our lab and testing many formulas.
9. Compared to other wax products, do we use more or less silicone in our products that other products?
This would vary depending on whose product(s) you were doing the comparison with, but to give this information out would be a lot like writing out the formula!!!!!!!!!!!!
10. What is the #1 mistake customers make when applying wax?
Actually there are two and one feeds off the other. Most customers do not read and follow the directions, they figure "all waxes are the same" and I know how to use them. And by virtue of this, 99% of them use too much product.
Thanks:)
kissmySS 04-03-2006, 11:04 AM WOW thanks for such a detailed explanation, im no wax expert and that helped alot...thanks again!! :cssNET:

I can tell you endless stories regarding our operation, but at the end of the day we have to educate and earn the trust of our customers a difficult task but we are trying our best. :twothumbs :twothumbs

Turbo Wax 04-08-2006, 11:14 PM Possibly to Canada.. but without raping us.. LoL
No way, we could ever do that, we have work so hard to have a great reputation only to damage it over pocket change.
Short Story;
We never review our shipping rates last time we made some changes to the site so we sold a 4oz kit to Hawaii, it cost us $33 USA, to ship the kit alone, the kit was $24.00 a total loss for us, but for me, I am sure I gain a new customer because of our awesome product.
So yes I could ship to you guys in CANADA, we ONLY charge what it cost us, if is $10 or if is $2 we dont make a penny on shipping, heck we make very little money on all of these deals, but for me what is important is that the new customers try our products and realize that yes indeed you have a choice.;)
Same goes to Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico:)

CobaltDude81 04-09-2006, 11:23 PM after trying collinite last spring i wont use anything else. sorry!
Turbo Wax 04-10-2006, 04:05 PM Do u guys have a Sealer and Glaze?
Again I took the liberty to "Add" a few more questions down that subject
1. Do we have a sealer or glaze?
Our paint protection could also be termed a sealer somewhat, although the proper terminology for any product for an application like this would probably not be a sealer.
The term itself says that you are sealing something up, painted surfaces need "to breathe" so to total seal one off is not the best.
A glaze on the other hand is for all practical speaking "lipstick on a pig" meaning, you are probably hiding something. Think of it this way, most women wear makeup, with it on, they are hiding blemishes, etc, but just as soon as they wash their face, the defects are still there. We prefer to fix the problem rather that cover it up.
If the customer is looking for a product that does what those other products profess to do, then I suggest they use our SRP, Spot Repair Polish, which is in the bodyshop line, performs the function of a glaze but is not a coverup, it actually takes the imperfections from the surface rather than covering them.
Will we ever make a glaze, just to have one in name, probably not, I prefer function over form. Identifying right at the start what we are going to accomplish, then doing just that is most important to us, no matter what name you might have on the product.
We do not want to have a product that washes off the car and reveals something that we should have done with a product earlier in the process.
2. Difference between a sealer and a glaze?
The general thinking is this, a sealer is to lock in a particular condition of the paint and keep it looking that way. You can think of it as putting of a coat of clear.
As I mentioned earlier, a glaze tells me right off that there is something that is being hidden.
When you ask most people why they use a glaze, first of all, most don't know why they are using it and the others will tell you that is to cover minor surface imperfections. Why not fix the problem rather than covering it up?
Going through the steps we suggest with the products we suggest will produce the results we advertise and will not wash off. some glazes are even color keyed for the paints, i.e., light for light colors, dark for dark. Now think about that.
3. Products that will last a year?
First, that is a pretty open-ended statement. Our product will last one or two years, providing that the car is kept in storage, no dust around, not driven, etc. Now, things being under "normal" conditions, drinving, etc., there is not a wax out there that will last a year.
Some of those that put that claim, have a little statement on their ad that says " with proper maintenance and a new coat every three months" it will last for the time prescribed. Most of the off the shelf waxes out there are so solvent laden that after a few days or weeks, there is nothing left. On those that there is a question, look at their MSDS sheets and look for the solvent content and it will answer some questions.
4. Products that claim to seal your paint?
A true sealer would probably not allow the paint to "breathe". What you mainly want to do is to protect the surface from the elements, somewhat of a barrier, yet still allowing the paint to breathe. You want something that will not penetrate the paint, so it must not be high in penetrating solvents, it needs to just attach to the surface, in this case, the paint.(Now this why is am so adamant about the surface being free of contaminants, i.e. overspray, because if you don't, you are just putting wax on contaminants, and it will wash off right away)
Hope that helps :)

I have never use that product before.
