    Re: Meguiar's Ultimate Wax Upgrades - New Formulas & New Packaging

    I just recently got the new paste wax and tried it on a panel. A few things stood out to me.

    1. No more nice smell, the consistency itself is a bit more synthetic and chemically. It reminds me a little bit of Finish Kare 1000P.
    2. It goes on like BUTTER on the paint. It seems a bit easier than the original formula.
    3. A tiny bit goes a LONG way. I mean the original already went a long way, but something about this just makes it even more so. I think that's probably why they reduced the tin from 11oz to 8oz. One tin can probably do 25-30 cars easy.

    Other than that, it seems like a good step up from the original. It's such a pleasure to use. We'll see how durability goes, and if dust is an issue.

              Nice! Thanks for sharing. You are referring to the Liquid version correct?

                Nick, yes it's the liquid version. Awesome !! I have ultimate paste wax also. Use them both. Plus A1216 cleaner wax, clay, etc.. Just something about the ULW user experience. I've been detailing since the late seventies, tried them all. Please keep making ULW. Thanks again. Franco

                    on first glance the clay has gone, which i liked in NXT
                    NXT hybrid ceramic would be a class leader

                      Interesting - so it has carnuaba in it! Also octocrylene is literally an (FDA approved) active ingredient in many human sunscreens.

                        I'm old school so I chose to use the paste version. Got to say I'm very impressed. Easy on, easy off, but long lasting. Meguiar's Ultimate Paste was definitely lives up to it's reputation. Will be my new go to sealant.

                          I know the older version of the liquid had streaking issues. Is that still the case?

                            I have not had any problems with streaking. I'm using the new liquid version. The old version would streak if i put too much on. All in all, this new version is better. Franco

                              How can I tell I'm buying the new or old version of the paste or liquid?
                              Thanks!

                                About an inch from the top of the packages, there is a yellow curved banner with black letters that say "Improved Formula!".
