Wizard's Wax?

Just curious if anyone has ever heard of Wizard's Wax or used it. My dent guy uses it and swears by it. He put some on part of my hood and it looked pretty good.

This is one product I've actually not used, mainly because of the few people that have used it not liking it much. You might want to check this out: http://www.gurureports.org/specialreports/waxtest2.html If you click that little box to the right, it is the info for the Wizards product in the wax test. Apparently it didn't do so great there either as it didn't really last but about 3 or 4 weeks, which as they note, is pretty bad for any synthetic product. I'll bet the reason it looked good initially on your car was the abrasives and cleaners in that product. The cleaners helped polish the surface, which will always look better than an unpolished surface.

If you are just too curious I suppose you might try it and see if your results match those at the wax test......or, just save the money and try more proven products, like Zaino, Klasse, Liquid Glass, P21S, etc.......

Many auto body shops use Wizard products because they are cheap to buy, they did very poor in "The Wax Test" testing last year, they finished 38th of 46 products tested, their product is very much like Race Glaze, in fact Wizard used to sell Race Glaze.
