Has anyone tried it, if so is it worth the money? How long does it last?

Overpriced and underperforms IMO. The applicator is crap

Dodo Juice Supernatural is a bit more expensive but twice as good in terms of durability and depth. Coupled with the applicator, its so easy to apply

I havent mate but have heard of them. I would like to try some of their stuff, if its decent quality then i will be pleased as its developed and made right here in aus. Nothing like supporting a local industry!

There is also a panel pot for $36 which will actually do about 3-5 medium size cars

This is a good idea if you wanted to try if first without the big initial outlay.

The large pot though will literally last you YEARS

Cheers will definitely give the sample size a go. So its carnauba wax based, i do like the gloss those waxes give (i used meguiars one few times), problem was they didnt seem to last long. I just bought the sample one actually, will be a good comparison.

Haha i was going to say that you should probably use a pre-wax cleaner first. Dodo Juice Lime Prime Lite is what you need. Its like a very gentle polish. It will help the wax to bond to the surface.

If you can apply the wax and leave it to bond as well for 24hours, you will get 6-12 months protection from a single coat.

If you want something long lasting, check out Collinite waxes (also from the same store that Dave linked to) - they're a bit of a pain to apply being a traditional carnauba wax, but it looks damn good, and lasts forever... best looking wax I've used on my Magna too, and reasonably priced.

Dodo waxes have a very good reputation though, but they're probably more expensive than what you're used to paying for waxes.

RightNow?

Thats because it is full of silicone :)
