It'll be interesting to see how long it lasts. Is the car 'beading' well?

I've used Collinite 915 in the past and i'm very impressed with that.

I recently purchased this...
Chemical Guys - XXX Hardcore Paste Wax

I found its not as easy to apply as the Collinite, but the finish is good, will wait and see how long it lasts.
