Hi Guys, anybody tried or used this before? How about the looks and durability? Does it good for light colored metallic?

Thx

I've used it and it's not bad stuff. It's a good looking wax and it lasts quite a bit longer than your average wax.

I like it. It's an old wax that has been around since 1951. Meg's finally stopped selling it in the U.S. when the new VOC regs came out two or three years ago. Like P1et mentioned it is a very durable wax that looks pretty good too. I personally like it best on lighter colors so it should look pretty good on your car. Just remember to apply it very, very thin for easy removal.

It contains a lot of beeswax, so the beading is great!

Take a close look at your paint 3-4 hours after you buffed it..
The wax sweats sometimes I've experienced.

I still have a tub of Meg's #16, I've used it a few times, looks are okay, durability is okay as well. Like P1et said it lasts longer then the regular wax

It's easy to apply and easy to remove.

Thanks for the feedback guys!

I am wondering about this since there is a limited offering of 12 can of this in other forum. I am thinking of adding it to my supplies. BTW, in terms of looks, how does it compare to Collinite IW 845?

Thx
