Blackfire Midnight Sun Carnuaba Spray Wax Review
Source: Purchase
Price: $24.99 (sale $19.99 not including discount) 20 oz.
Key Marketing Claims:
- durability up to 12 week
- anti-static protective resists dust accumulation
The after shots:
The truck is showing its age in spots.
Out for a drive
Swirl Check - definitely not perfect but not bad after 2 years since the last time I polished it.
beading
Location: Parked outside 24x7
Subjective Observations:
Scent: Nice. It reminds me of Wolfgang Spritz Sealant.
Ease of use (wipe off, streaking): Easy, no streaking. It is slightly thicker than Pinnacle XMT so used two towels (one to wipe, one to buff off)
Visuals: It does not darken paint like some spray waxes (Pinncle XMT) but tends to be neutral, glossy appearance.
Flake Mute: Unknown.
Slickness: Very good. Paint has a "soft" feel to it compared to some super slick detailers.
Filling: Nothing special but typical for a wax or sealant
Cost: Higher cost per use than other waxes
Dust/Pollen attraction: It did not attract any unusual amounts of dust
Durability: Very good to date (over 4 weeks). It has been hot here and still holding up
Sheeting/beading: After a rain, when clean, it leaves tiny crisp beading. Waters sheets very well off sides.
Summary
The perfect complement for Blackfire Midnight Sun Paste Wax. The spray wax actually seems to be more durable. It is top tier with balance of application, durability, and appearance.
