Default Has anyone tried AutoGlym high definition wax????

I just picked up the autoglym high definition wax kit . I actually picked it up at walmart for about 35 dollars. I bought it because I have read some decent reviews and have seen people use it multimillion dollar Ferraris. Anyone have any direct experience with this stuff ??? I am going to try this out when I have time and will do a review and post some photos. Any feed back would be great.

Yeah, I'll probably hit the one up by school as well. So far some stores in CA have it so far. The Palm apps are also great as well. Pretty much, the entire Autoglym line is always worth a purchase

I've tried it before and it works great. Didn't know Wally world had them, this is great news if it's same quality.

I would be really interested in seeing it and trying it out. I know that we both seriously love their interior cleaner, so much so that we don't even carry anything else other than the Auto Glym.

The P21s 100% Carnauba is a great wax, it has a great lifespan, even under difficult conditions, and looks great.

Moe and I both use our work trucks as "test beds" for the different types of paint protection, if I can find this stuff at Wal-Mart I will pick up a jar and throw some on to see how it looks and lasts in comparison to some other sealants.

walmart has it for 34 dollars and it was for the 2 applicators, microfiber , and a jar of paste wax. I tried it out today and I am sold. Its amazing how it makes the car shine but its also protecting the paint. This stuff really makes the car shine and the smooth to the touch feeling is amazing. I am going to stick with Auto Glym for the wax and Zaino for my polish. Seems like an award winning combination

^^Nice. I'm still waiting for my WalMart to stock it. How is the swirl filling capabilities? Are there any at all?

I stopped by the Walmart today but they don't have it either but I did see that they have that new Ultimate Wash & Wax by Meguiar's.

I picked some up at my walmart in seffner, fl it was on clearance for $20. I will be putting it on my new 350z and on my sc400 to get it all nice and shiny before I sell it.
