Any one have any input on Harly Wax "the Aristocrat of Wax?" A buddy of mine recently gave me a tub, and I really enjoyed using it. It goes on and off like butter. From reading about it, its been around for years. So far I`ve tried it on a few cars and its performing well. Does anyone here use this carnauba based product?

I used it many years ago along with P21S, Blitz, McCall`s...



Now I`m into sealants (last 5 years) and next year coatings.



Harly was one of the slickest carnauba`s around, beaded nicely, looked good, spread easily on and off. But if you used too much wax it produced lots of dust and was a bear to remove.



Downside to Harly was short durability. Slickness went away after 2 washes.



All in all a very good showcar beauty wax.

That was my first paste wax, when I started my mobile detailing in 1987. It was very easy to work with but not very durable.

I have a tin of Harly Wax and have used it a couple of times. I like it. Leaves a balanced, warm look. Also very easy to apply and remove. A good deal for the money.
