Prestone wax?

Either there's been some major breakthrough in polymer technology throughout the care care industry, or they're just ripping each other off, because I just saw a new Prestone polymer car wax in the grocery store the other day - it promises pretty much the same benefits as the NXT Tech wax - easy on and off, low residue, major shine - but it was ludicrously cheap. I'm talking $3.99 for a big ol' bottle plus a bottle of spray-on booster wax too. Has anyone tried this stuff?

you're talking about the long squeeze bottle right, with the inverted rubber pressure nozzle right?

I've used it before and it's very nice, but it's the kind that dries to a haze which you have to wipe off. VERY easy though.

But ever since I discovered Eagle One Wax-As-You-Dry, all other wax products will be sitting in my cabinet for a long time.. I'll probably use the prestone wax once every 6 months, and a full claying + Mothers High-Tech Yellow #9 once a year.

That's the stuff, Squidward. Thanks for the info. I was just curious, cuz the price seemed right. I'll give the Eagle One a shot first. Ever since I got the 8 my car care shelf is getting more and more crowded.
