There is nothing wrong with 'chemicalguys' products!

I'm just offering alternatives.

Ya' got me there...

I haven't tried 'chemicalguys' products yet, so I misspoke. I'm hoping to give some of their products a try and will report back.

I was just trying to avoid creating an impression that there might be anything negative with their products.

I think it the person applying the polishes and not the polishes themself,

No but in all seriousness, CG has some awesome products, however they also have some really really crappy products.

Stay away from thier polishes and tire cleaners.

However I do believe they have great waxes whether it is the Natura or Petes. There car shampoos are the best on the market.

Ohh and one jar of Natura will last twice as long as Americana

You get like 50oz of wax for $8000 why in the hell would you need to refill a 50oz jar of wax unless you are doing multiple cars a day for a living. It will take me at least 4-5 years to using a 16oz jar of wax. I smell
