What are we looking at? I see a nice box, some items "Hand Made in Germany" and a plastic sack with micro fiber towels. Is this a new secret high-line polish and wax line? Clue us in!

I used it as a drying aid. On black at about 1130-1200 in hot FL sun.

With Overcoat, I spray a dry towel and it glides across, with PA I tried the same and it dragged. Wet the towel, and it did really nice.

It doesn't remove water spots like the newer overcoat.

It does have in my opinion more of a "nuba" look, so that floats my boat.


I've been using PA spritz's normally on a clean dry car, spray wipe on, wipe off. THink this is best suited for that type of use.

I'll have a better idea when I see both cars cured.
