Seriously, I was the same as you, until I tried Zaino. To each their own, I choose Zaino and wish the best to you, whatever you use.

I keep seeing commercials for some new "Ice" wax or something like that...
Anyone try that yet?

1- its like oil, i like to think of it as a tanning lotion for my car
2- you can use it like a butter wax, in the sun, in the shade, cold hot and comes off with ease
3- even if it touches your black rubber it will not make anything white in fact it lubricates and renews rubber.
4- its awsome 10 - 15 min and your car is completly WAXED. I love zaino but ICE is so easy to use its redicelouse. comes off in seconds..
5- believe me it is so shiny to a point that i see no difference between ICE and NXT. speechless
why did't they come up with earlier. i have wasted too much time of my life waxing my cars.6- i have attached a picture. i took it three days after i waxed my car with ICE. i swear that stuff is soooooooooooooooooooo nice to use and the shine is just what i was looking for
i feel stupid about wasting hours back in the day waxing my car when now it takes 15 minutes

Nice pics,
I just bought a 06 black 8. I decided to replace my 5 year old turtle wax for NXT. Maybe I will try the ICE when I want a fast wax, How much is it?

I wish I had some kind of cover or a bigger garage, I always have to wait for the sun to go down so I can wash my car...but by the time I'm done washing and drying it's almost night time and I don't have the time to wax...grr...

zymol...
get a damp towel, apply all over the car and wipe away with a soft cloth.
THE SECRET IS THAT THE TOWEL/OLD T-SHIRT... WHATEVER YOU USE MUST ME WET WHEN YOU ARE APLLYING THE WAX... trust me.

Yes and it works great. Very reasonably priced at like $15 a bottle at the local Auto Zone.
I know everyone praises Zaino, but Turtlewax ICE is VERY easy to use and doesn't leave ANY residue. It can be applied even in a scorching Texas sun and wipes off EASILY. Takes about 10-15 mins to completely do your car from bumper to bumper.
I think you will be happy with ICE.
