    Just got a bottle from Amazon. I'm already a fan. Wipe on wipe off and leaves the plastic super slick and shinier than new. My lights are in pretty good shape to begin with but they're definitely smoother after application. It's a little thicker/slimy-er than ULW. I wonder if a polymer paint sealant would do the exact same thing, but for six bucks thought I'd give it a try. It's supposed to protect the lenses from clouding (UV blocker).

    It's odd stuff. Consistency is more like honey when you spread it on, as opposed to creamy like a liquid wax. It's got a little drag to it. It's by no means difficult to remove, but you'll be tempted to put a little muscle into it. No need, don't scratch the lens with the towel. Just take your time. Wipe, turn the wrag, wipe a little more. Before ya know it, super slick and shiny. I've read reports of people having difficulty with removal, but I wonder if they had somewhat cloudy plastic to begin with. I had no problem at all. Really easy. Oh, and you don't want to let it dry like wax. Just wipe on wipe off. About a dime size for one light. Bottle will last forever. Recommended application every couple months.
