Pete's 53 review

So just spent 9 hrs compounding, polishing and then waxing the car. Must say Pete's 53 is awesome.

It's a wipe on/wipe off wax so very easy to apply and remove. The finish looks amazing. It has a very strong coconut smell so be warned if that's not your thing.

Highly highly recommended.

Also wiped down with Chemical Guys Hybrid V7. Best detail job to date by far.

your car looks great.I also love your garage. I wish I could have a garage that looked great and wasn't full of junk.

Thanks on both counts. Just finished it last weekend and have been in it every night since.

Thanks Todd. Just checked out your site, it's very nice. Looks like you guys carry all the good stuff. How's that Dodo juice?

Which one of your waxes would you use on your own car?
