i personally would never use turtle wax products. from my experience they are no where near as good as other comporably priced products. meguirs, and mothers are hands down better. some people like the turtle wax, but that's just because they haven't tried any other products.

turtle wax liquid claybar is a waste of money, and i just don't feel like their products are good enough.

Turtle wax is fine. It isn't supposed to be the best product for detailing, it is supposed to be better than just washing, and fast. If you don't have a lot of time, and want a decent shine, that is what you use. Unfortunately, not all of us have enough time to detail our cars thoroughly. If you have time though, you want might want to go another route.

In any case, try it out, what is the worst that can happen? You won't like it? If that is the case, use something else next time.

my point was that if you're going to use a spray detailer, you're better off with a mequirs or mothers product. it will be better than the turtle wax, and takes the same amount of time

also you definitely want more protection that that.

claybar takes the wax off your car along with all other contaminates

now wax protects your paint from uv and **** so you want that there....so even if you dont do it that night....the next night you will want to....that meguiars tech-wax doesnt take anytime at all...
