VERY NICE VETT!!!
I Like the ICE Clay bar kit. I met the VP of marketing from Turtle Wax at the dog park last year. He is a Car Guy they brought over from the UK to make all the major changes at Turtle Wax to go after all the collectors. Hence the ICE product line.

No offense, THIS product may work well but I wouldn't use any turtle wax product not even to polish my toilet with. So many other more reputable products that are proven available.

P.S.
Your car does look good

Looks good from here, I tried it a few years ago and wasn't happy with it at all, It left my car with a greasy film on it, I had to wash the car again after using ICE.
Just my 2 cents.

I have heard good things about Turtle wax ice. Especially their detailer. A guy I know, who has many years of show experience, absolutely loves the stuff.

I saw a C5 Z06 this summer on the HRPT who uses Liquid Glass and I will say, that was the best looking paint job I have ever seen, ever!! Not one mark, blemish, or swirl anywhere. Too bad the guy was an idiot.

Good looking car, great color. Did you paint Corvette on the back or is that vinyl?

That is what I use and have for years, It isn't cheap but worth it.

Great product, can't say how it works on a toilet (never waxed any of mine) but it works great on cars and boats. I've been using it for years with great success. Nice thing is you can put it all over everything and in direct sun light. For me the real test is on my boat, after day use and sun baking in hard water on the finish I found the ICE and ReJex provided best protection. The hard water deposits would wash off with just soap and water. Anyone boating knows how hard it is to get them off so to me the proof was easy.

I recall me asking you what wax you used. The guy I spoke to said it was a little tricky to work with but the results was unquestionable.

Looks good!

I tried it when it first came out and it attracted tons of dust.

I find Liquid Glass very easy to use and works great.

I use Turtle Wax Ice on mine and have been very pleased with it.
