How would you compare Nattys to Carnuba Moose Wax??

Anyone, specifically Scottwax as you seem to have the most experience with Clearkote products.
Thanks!

Nattys= Is a carnuba paste which usually last about 30 days.
CM= is a liquid carnuba paste wax, the bottle says its durable for upto 6months. Ive had it on my vehicle for 4 and it sheeted just as it did when i first applied it.
You should just go CM then Nattys or you could at least give it a try.

I don't get how this could last for 6 months and be carnauba based. Are there polymers in the product in addition to the carnauba? I'm not saying you're wrong, I'm just surprised that's all.

Carnauba Moose is petroluem based with added carnauba. I get real good durability out of it too. Much better than I expected for a carnauba product.

Natty's looks a bit wetter, CMW has a deeper, richer look. Like 6']['9 said, lay down some CMW, then top with Natty's.

sun application?

Is CMW as easy to use in sun as VM?

Natty's is wetter looking. #16 will last longer and the difference in appearance isn't huge.

Interesting. I know I read somewhere that it is really
clear looking, but not that wet looking. I know Deanski
did a comparo with Natty's and Soveran, and few could
tell the difference. but then again, I attribute his good
looking car to careful prep before he even put on the wax.

For all my wet look jobs, I've always gone to #16, and I've
never really been dissapointed. CMW is a real nice wet look
as well. In fact, just for kicks I topped CMW on 16, and got a
really great, deep wet look. Unfortunately, I find that I have
problems applying it, so I don't use it often. Hopefully, Mr
Glass has the solution to my woes.

Ok, guess it's time to jump in and try out the Natty's and
see how that likes me

usdm-#16 does have a clear wet look, just not quite as wet looking as Natty's.

As you can see on this Miata, #16 does look really good (over Poorboy's PwC applied with a polishing pad).
