ORIGINAL: iowacruiser

I tried it and found that it was tough to get off cleanly on my Vivid Black. Seemed to smear more than come off.
Same thing here on my black truck. I still have it but don't use it. I prefer McQuirres spray was for quick work. It doesn't leave a residue and looks great on any color.

I believe the Ice isn't a wax at all, but a polymer-based shine-em-up.

I think its actually a polish, not a wax.

I tried the Ice, but went back to Maas. Link below. I had my local auto parts order me some.

Itwas pretty funny if you ask me. Of course I'm the same guy that will pull a "bird" out of my pocket just to make you laugh too...
Do it all the time a work. I'm REAL popular...

I don't like it. Greasy. Typical of a polymer. Allthough I did put it on pretty heavy. I'll stay with the Mothers' and McGuires. Can't go wrong with carnauba, B.T.W. Ice isn't a cleaner/polish. Just a polish.

I like it a lot. I first saw it as a combo set at a warehouse store that had a "liquid wax type" formula that you apply with a sponge and then wipe off and also a "touch up" type that you spray on and wipe off. It was a good deal so I figured it was worth a try.

Yesterday I did my truck for the first time with the wipe on, and it has never looked so good. You can get the wipe on on anything - headlights, tail lights, chrome, plastic, and it cleans and shines it right up. It is a little "greasy" but it dries pretty fast and If you have towels in each hand you can wipe if off and buff it out in one step. You can use it in direct sunlight too.

The spray on is great for shining up the bike after a ride and takes no time at all.
