Re: Wary of using Color-X
You can certainly use it on your new car. The intent of Color-X is to "boost your paint color." It is a multi-purpose cleaner, polish, wax combo. Some colors look amazing after you use Color-X, but most people still apply a different wax on top. It will remove fine swirls and scratches if there are any, and I think Mike said it is comparable to Meguairs Cleaner Wax. I know it works great, thats why I always have some on hand."I drink windex........it keeps me from streaking."

What will Color-x do to my non-oxidized and perfect clear coat?
Thanks.
Take a moment to shake up our bottle of ColorX and then pour some out into your hand and then feel it with your fingersl... you'll find it's smooth and creamy...
"Yes" it is a strong cleaner/wax but remember that part of how strong any product is includes your application material and method, If you apply ColorX gently, you get a gentle cleaning action, if you put some passion behind the pad you'll get some aggressive cleaning action.
Make sense?

Where did you hear this or read this? Can you post a link?
Don't pay any attention to it, both these products work phenomenal.
