Is it true that i heard QEW contain Wax?

Synthetic or Carnauba type wax or Silicon type?

Well actually yes yes it does :)



I just talked to the VP and he said it contains a small ammount of a wax (he wasn`t specific), but he said it helps with the cleaning of the surface. He also said for mobile guys like me that the product is safe enough that you can throw it in the flower bed at the end of the day, and it will do no harm to the plants :)

Sometimes i use it as a QD to clean out dust before sealant, cheap alternative to those specialize QD. Now i know i cannot use it if i want to layer Zaino or Menzerna FMJ next couple of days.

If there is "Carnauba" in QEW, then i may have durability issue what i have been doing all this while. :( :nixweiss :eek:

The ammount of whatever wax is really nominal, it isn`t enough to really add a layer of protection or anything like that, it is enough to help the oher chemicals in the product lift any dust and dirt. Oh, and there are no silicones or derivitaves there of either (i asked that question too :) )

I was curious as to why QEW always leaves a shine that pops! :)



I`ve also been using it as a poor man`s QD...

I`m thinking if the wax is an issue you could always follow with an isopropyl alcohol mix

It will remove my existing layers of wax/sealant or glaze(Prior to wax).



I may be using the Poorboy Spray & Wipe for this purpose. According to the manufacturer, it doesn`t contain Wax.
