From their website: For a waxed look without the work! • Adds a Carnauba Wax shine and protects paint between waxings. • Deep cleans dirt and grime. • Rinses spot-free. _____________________________ 2000 Blazer gettin' pimped http://s168.photobucket.com/albums/u167/speeddemon560 My dash with Nu Image Platinum stuff.

I kind of like the Mr. Clean system as a complete system though not including wax. Just as a specific car wash though I prefer Kit Carnuba as speed and the brettster stated. What do you guys think? Have you used the poll leader? What did you like/dislike about it? Which do you think is the best and why? If you haven't voted, then get your vote in!!!! < Message edited by rabbit0102030 -- 6/4/2007 11:54:01 AM > _____________________________ June 2007 Ride Of The Month (in reply to speeddemon560) Post #: 9

It dries nice and shines afterwords. I am still using this cause i got it dirt cheap from advance auto parts about a year ago. most of the time that i wash the blazer i have to go to the power wash to remove the mud and what not. -Lenny _____________________________ -Lenny 4.3L Auto. 3.73Gears http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2358267 (in reply to swartlkk) Post #: 11
