According to Autopians, about a week - not good. I just applied my sample to a customer car and will be washing it in two weeks. I'll report back.

It was just too easy to be good wax, but we will see.

Is this stuff like NXT and full of fillers or os it really just a final step wax/sealant? I keep seeing people saying that it removed the swirls and such on other boards and thus I am guessing it is just like when NXT came out and folks thought it was correcting issues. Anyone have any insights into the character of this stuff?

Scott - the car I applied it to didn't have many defects, but the ones it had were not filled. I can't say for sure but if it does have fillers they can't be as prevelant as NXT's are. It did apply easily, removed easily, won't stain, etc... but then again I have probably 10 waxes that all do that. For the cost I'd expect ICE to get you at least 8 weeks of durabilty, especially since it's synthetic. Word is it lasts 10 days if you're lucky, but I'll know for sure in 12 days.

Right, it's a sealant. Sealants typically don't bond over waxes, so you might want to use ICE before your wax, or skip the wax all together.
