Sorry the pics suck, it was dark when I finished so I had to take shots with a make shift duck tape tripod in a cramped garage.
.... truly amazing
yooooooooo looks awesome,
couple questions, i know you did it by hand.
1. was it hard to get all the wax off once dry? or easy as hell?
2. i noticed the wax can is small, how many jobs do you think you can get out of one can?
3. have you used it on the lips of your wheels? if so, any damage to the clear coat?
sorry for the tech questions, i'm just guessing everyone has these questions too, just no one has asked them.
thanks bro.
looks awesome.

The removal was pretty easy. I just did one section at a time like it says to do and didn't have any problems. I believe I read that the can is good for at least 12 applications and no I haven't tried it on the wheels.

s100 is very good product...know as a beauty wax...looks stinking hot when applied...but will generally not last as long as say a Megs#16 or blitz wax...but those products have a tuf time matching the look of the s100...
side note - should still last longer than NXT...

100% not computer generated. The flourescent lighting in my garage made it look like that. But I'm glad it looks so good that you would think its fake!

EnthuZiast, the wheels are gunmetal 19x8.5/9.5 Volk GT7's.
I'll try and get more pics today since it was dark last night when I took those.

a majority of waxes are great after you put them on. but drive around for a week or so and all that shine goes away quick.

It is a paste wax so a little goes a long way.....especially if you apply it with a PC. This wax is made for all paints including clear coated finishes so there should be no harm done to it.

If you want your car to look awesome like that, you gotta put in the time and effort. He can go pimp that around until it starts to fade. What are you doing with yours?
