This is not available on Autopia yet.
I received this as part of the Autogeek 303 giveaway.
Front of the bottle
Rear of the bottle.
I decided to put this quick wax against other quick waxes that I have. What I did was use the factory hood that I have off my Grand Prix. It was my test panel as I was also toying around with the new Rupes LHR15 Mark II that I just received.
I polished the hood with some Ameridepth polish to remove anything I had on it. Followed that up with a couple of IPA wipedowns. Taped off sections of the hood.
You can see which products I used and which sections they were applied to.
This is not a longevity test but rather a performance test to see how each product behaves.
From left to right we have
-HD Express
-303 Quick Wax
-Meguiar's D156
-Blackfire Spray Wax
I applied each one with 3 sprays of product onto a microfiber and applied it onto the section. Buffed each one after application.
HD Express is the thickest product in terms of consistency. 303 has a consistency of in the middle between D156 and Blackfire.
303 has a nice scent to it. As I was applying 303 to it's section, I noticed that it had a rainbow effect onto the paint as it was flashing. None of the other products exhibited that behavior. It also took the longest to flash. I did not find it difficult to buff off.
In terms of slickness, 303 was not slick at all. I had another microfiber on hand to see how slick each area was. The towel dragged on the 303 area. With the bare hand I felt no slickness to it. Felt like unprotected paint.
In terms of slickness I would rate these the following (starting with the slickest first):
1. D156
2. HD Express
3: Blackfire
4. 303
HD Express and Blackfire were so close in terms of slickness.
All the above was done on Saturday. I left the hood outside as there was rain on Sunday. I wanted to see how 303 performed with water on it.
Here are the panels starting from left to right:
HD Express
Nice beading and sheeting.
303
Beading doesn't look as nice and sheeting was ok.
D156
Nice beading and sheeting.
Blackfire
Nice beading and sheeting
Overall I was not impressed with this product. It does not have any slickness to it at all. It's beading and sheeting is not that impressive to me. I had no issues buffing it off in that small area. Scent was good.
I don't like to say it but I would not recommend this.
