    To me the best think about Turtles Ice line is it can be applied in direct sunlight and to all surfaces. You can't beat that with a stick

    Used this stuff on my wife's SUV last weekend. Looks awesome! Going to do the truck this weekend.

    How long has the wax held up for you all in the past?

    Have been using Ice for several years now and won't go to anything else. Tried Meguires NXT 2.0 on advice and it wasn't worth a SHIT. Didn't even bead up a week later. Last waxed my truck almost two months ago and it is still beading like it did when first applied.

    I wax mine every two or three months whether it needs it or not. Ice has never failed to dissapoint! It gets pretty damn hot here in GA and mine has lasted 2 - 3 months in the summer...Great stuff! I even use it on the head/tail lights and mirrors - my truck is an '08 and no yellowing on the headlights whatsoever...

    I used it on my 07 Mustang and now use it on my Tacoma, it goes on easy and shines nice without the mess from paste wax that does not work on the black trim. I love Meguiars Products and their wax is great, but this stuff is just to easy not to use! Shine on! :cool:

    Turtle wax ice is all I use, because it can be applied in direct sunlight. It won't leave a white haze. And it can be applied to any surface. Now, their paste wax has advanced to this level. Meaning, it too can be applied in direct sunlight and to all surfaces.

    I went ahead and did the wax... Both liquid and the spray. Might be an overkill but my vehicles look great!

    Is there any advantage to using the liquid wax versus the spray on wax. I've heard the spray on is very easy to apply and lasts a decent amount of time but is the liquid wax even better? I guess what I'm getting at is, "is the extra work of the liquid wax worth the effort, longevity wise?"
