Buy this big jug. You can use it on all kinds of stuff, just keep it off black plastic. I even used it on kitchen granite lol

Plenty enough to do a car and truck a few times over. Yes I used it on my bike.

Yeah, those assholes answer every inquiry with "buy some and try it". Yeah, make a 4 ounce bottle of it and I might. I don't just "try out" something that's 50 bucks a bottle, and I think bug guts are gonna stick to it just fine. Bring that shit to Texas during cotton harvest season and amaze me as you are the only bike not glazed in grasshopper guts. Right.

water will roll off any smooth well-waxed surface, it may be a good product but using a sales gimmick. I love Meguiars.. and smells good enough to eat although I haven't tried it.

Re:Amazing wax finish??? 11 Months, 1 Week ago  
I've been detailing vehicles for myself (not a living) for over 30 years. None of the miracle sealants work for long. There is no shortcut to properly cleaning something. Wash, dry, claybar/compound if needed, polish, wax. Somple, effective, labor intensive, and the best way. You can take any properly detailed bike and throw mud on it dirt. Etc and wipe it off with a wet microfiber towel and it looks purty. This product isn't anything different or special.

I have gotten FANTASTIC results using GLARE product line on my bike...4 different bottles...dappled by hand.....after 22 months still Looks fantastic. That is the best/longest lasting stuff I have ever used. When in get my freshly painted tins back it's what I will use. My other bikes needed compounding and polishing before waxing and I used my porter cable bugger with 3 different types of 3in applicator pads and that works wonderful too.

I would guess its Teflon based. If so, it will discolor over time.
