Has anyone else used this stuff . I tried it out today with a micro fiber towel . This is some good stuff. you just spray on and wipe the mist to one heck of a shine. I am sold and I know it isnot as deep a wax as a paste or polish, but much easier to use and check these pics out.
and yes I have read the pic post forum twice and I must be a complete idiot. I can't get it to load up . but the shine on this car. :lalala:

pretty sweet. keep us posted as to how long it will last. i've been having bum luck with getting any wax to last longer than a month around here

max you ARE a godsend on here. and as far as the wax lasts, well I try to wash my car every weekend. the wax was 6.00 dollars, and took about 30 minutes to do after a wash, so I don't mind doing it every time or every other time. I the bottle was still over 2/3 full. so I figure 3 or four applications for $6.00 isn't bad...

Yeah I just started using it and love how it is effortless to apply.
I can even go get a 4$ car wash at a gas station park it outside and 5-10 minutes later be done apply a coat of wax to my car....so nice.
And the cooolest thing is that the more often you wash your car the easier it is to keep it clean.

Depending on the location of where you park, where you live, etc. etc. you should probably be waxing every month or so anyway

Now is this the kinda wax you spray as you dry, or do you wash/dry/wax?

It is a spray bottle, like windex or armor all or whatever. Get yourself a pack of micro fiber towels, ( buy good ones ) wash your car like normal , then spray the wax on the car, wipe dry with a micro fiber towel and I like to use a second towel to buff afer I get it dry. Did the whole box in 45 minutes.

I have been using the Eagle One quick detailing spray (now the spray Nano Wax) for about a year now. I have been very happy with it and it makes my car look awesome at shows!
Some examples both indoors and out:

So its really just like meguires quick detailer, or is it an actual wax? And does it get applied when car is still wet, or after you have washed and dried it?
Looks alright for it being a simple srapy on application.

the spray wax is like a wax/detailer hybrid. And the surface should be washed and dried before you apply it.

Ive been using it all up on my new car along with meguirs detailer. Good combo.
After a car wash I use the eagle all over, and then for light touch ups the meguirs detailer.

Only bad things I have heard about this type of stuff is that it doesnt last on the car very long. I know most waxes only provide limited protection but not sure about this particular product. Good to know that it works well though. Did you try any of the other new "nano" products they have out now? I am curious about those as well.

Well part of it is that it requires less. And wax life really depends on where u keep your car and other environmental factors.
For me, my car is parked outside in the raging sun 24/7! (not at night duhhh)
God its horrible, I know. But i dont even have a decent place to wash my car myself. Thats why I love the eagle spray, its so easy to apply it with minimal fuss and it looks realllll good. Its so easy that even if it doesnt last as long as a paste or a thicker synthetic I can wax more often and still have that sheeny shine.
Ive already put like two-three layers on it. And ive washed my car like every 2 days for the first week haha.

you can't beat these products, cause for one, there is almost no labor involved, it takes at the most 40-45 minutes to do the whole car, and look at the results, and for around 6 or 7 dollars you get 3-4 treatments , I think it is good stuff based on this alone. And like at my ride and the orange box on here also the results speak for itself.

I can do my tc in like under 15 for sure. and im paying attention to detail as well.
Thats probably partially because there is no need to do the roof (such a blessing)

I honestly don't understand how such a product is saving you time? I can wax my tC (by hand) in under 20 minutes. An XB takes me less than 30 minutes (I've done three). Application time is greatly cut down if I'm applying a sealant with a Porter Cable.
It all boils down to technique and the amount of times you've done it, I guess. I've detailed hundreds of cars, so maybe I'm quicker than others.

glad you can wax a car that fast. Took me about 2 hours last time I did a complete wax. I took my time but it wasnt 30min.

eagle one nano spray wax is the best! it smells good and can be applied both in the sun or shade. i perfer the shade cuz i'm so used to cleaning my car in the shade. the only think i dont like.. if you read the bottle, it says you can use it on glass.. well, i tried and it just smeared like pooh.. hahaha

Sorry, I'm not trying to show off, insult, or degrade anybody if it takes them longer. I was just speaking about my experience. I don't rush, but I work at a quick pace and get the job done.

yea - maybe i shouldnt have said that - ......what i found was that it takes me longer -- but it all depends on how hard the sun is beating down, the wax you use, the temp, the humidity, and the applicator and towel used to take it off. I know I dont have the best waxing setup so its deff going to take me longer then someone else.

There's one problem right there... don't wax in direct sunlight. It will help you out immensely. If you don't have a garage to wax in, pull it under a car-port, EZ-Up, tree, or just wax at night or when the sun is going down. If the wax dries too quickly because of the heat it will be harder to apply and remove.

i am scared of using a true high speed buffer. after watching a guy burn a paint job , i wont use anything other than the slow speed buffer you buy at sears. I too take roughly two hours to paste wax by hand, and it doesn't look this good, and there is no white powder residue left over.

Practice, practice, practice. I used to be intimidated by a high speed buffer. Now I have no problem taking my Makita 9227c with polishing pad and a cleaner/compound/polish to my dad's $90,000 Mercedes SL500.

I'm not telling you to practice on your car. Use old beater cars, use discarded body panels from junk yards. If you're not interested in learning, thats fine. I was just trying to give a little advice in case you were.

Yeah your kinda forgetting that you can wax anything.
Looks into pants and admires shine.
Yes indeed, now im not sure about using an orbital buffer down there...but im good with high speed motion in that area.
