Same user here!

Oo nga, di masyadong tumatagal yung kintab pero VERY worth it naman, re-application is needed in a short period of time. Wala me budget sa mga bote boteng wax eh, oks na 'tong sachet!

Manipis at konti lang din me maglagay, kalahati nga lang nagagamit ko per sachet, pati sa van ko nagamit ko pa, ikanga, mega tipid!

Yeah ,the 3M Ultra Gloss will last me 2days..3days max. I also tried the other one..i think it's got purple colors on the 3M Sachet. I think it's a glaze. It didn't shine as much, but, it gave me more of a flat clean look. I didn't like it as much. It made my car's color look darker.

How long should a good wax last? For those who are using or have tried using Mothers or Meguiars or Soft99 or Turtlewax...how long does your wax last?

All these waxes are hyped out, there isn't a wax I could recommend not just because I am in the other side of the globe, but also because I haven't had an as good experience with any of them as Sealants, and no wax makes your car shiine as long as 8 months unlike Sealants...

I detail for profit and never use wax. When customers ask me what wax do I use, they would all be surprised when I say, "I didn't apply wax on your car, sir". And when they ask me how I achieved that shine and deep wet look, I tell them, "it's just the right preparation and some Klasse Sealants, that's it..."

But seriously, it's not the wax, it's how you prep your car. 99% of all the waxes out there are almost identical, they provide deep wet looks for the first three days after application, after that, they're gone, and your car is all dusty due to the oil you covered your car with...

But, if you really want a great wax, try a S100 for $8. It's been tested and compared with that $1000 wax and showed no big difference at all.

However, I figured this will be helpful to most of you guys;

as far as traditional wax goes i've tried a lot and i think i like the shine of P21S the best. most reputable companies will make a wax that gives you a nice shine, so as long as you know what you're doing you should get respectable results.

i like to use the sealants too (imo Klasse is the easiest to use and has the best results), mainly because they are more durable and i don't have time to wax every month. but i do find that the 'luster' is not as good as the carnauba wax. of course, that is easily fixed by laying a coat of P21S carnauba on top of the Klasse sealant glaze

also, fyi, with the kind of climate you have in the Phils you shouldn't expect any wax to last for too long....

M54, P21S is proven identical
to the S100 I recommend... they are exactly the same. They just renamed the S100 that you would only find in Motorcycle dealers/parts store and bump the price from $8-$17...

Not entirely accurate, based on my experience, P21S has a tad bit more yellowish composition and a bit hazier during application than S100... Not to say one is better than another, but I don't think they're totally identical.

Guys, any specialty store that I can go to get Klasse All-in-one and P21S or S100? Any idea on prices here? Have been trying to look for these but no success yet. TIA

I am using Kitten w/carnauba and teflon (Aussie brand) at the moment, ok naman at mura pa. I have tried Meguires, Armour All and Turtle Wax, and I think pare-pareho lang sila.
I got my Outlander treated w/ Guardex w/ 6 years guarranty so papunas-punas lang ako ng basang basahan
