    OCW is fantastic. I use it once a month as a booster on a sealant. I have never had a streaking problem unless the car is hot / in the sun. Sometimes it looks even better the next day too.

    That`s the first I`ve heard of that. So it eliminates water spots during the wipe and adds good protection at the same time? I`ve done that in the past with Aqua Wax but never thought of it with OCW.

    Spray waxes

    I`ve tried most spray waxes. Maybe not all - but I have 30+.

    The best IMHO is Prima HydroMax. It`s better than Optimum. Its easier to use, lasts longer, and beads better.

    I don`t believe any of these spray waxes provide any significant UV protection.

    OCW has a patent on its UV protection.....

    I`m sure they do. But what is the significance of it? I don`t believe a sub micron film of wax does much if anything to prevent damage from the sun. It sounds more like marketing to me.

    Logic would tend to agree, although supposedly the UV protection migrates into the clear coat and gets stronger with repeated use.

    Any more I think it is really hard for someone come out with "bad" spray wax. They almost all look good, so then it comes down to ease of use and durability really.

    Re: Spray waxes

    The testing of OCW on fresh repaints is what swayed me. I have zero idea how other spraywaxes behave in that regard, but OCW is the one with testing I considered credible.

    Re: Spray waxes

    The ones I`ve used were rapid wax from a friend and I own white alabaster from the carbuba arts line.

    Both super easy to use and look and bead well.

    I`ve tried probably two dozen or more spray waxes. Most are done after 3-4 weeks or two washes. OCW lasts two months for me which is on par with lower quality real waxes. It`s the only lsp I use on my jeep and it`s worked great for three years straight. Bonus is how good it makes all the black plastic look. I do like the look of AW better on metallics.
