Long lasting protection. Have used for past several years and never disappoints. Price.

None

Used for the first time with Porter Cable 7424xp and the result is amazing. You can spend more for wax, but don’t know why someone would.

Surprised after using these 'glam' products, that good olde TW still delivers.

Hopefully it lasts for a long time.

Hard shell protection, just like they say.
Stays clear and lasts long.
Easy to apply
Great beading

Two coats for a higher shine, though the shine with one coat is OK too. will leave white marks on flat black, but they almost all do.

My dad told me to use Castrol oil or Valvoline and to always use Turtle Wax. I have done both. I have used Turtle Wax for more than 35 years and never had a problem. Put one coat on, wait 1 to 2 weeks add a 2nd coat and your good to go for about 6 months, sometimes more. I use the liquid, it is easier. My dad used it on our Packards, Hudson, Buicks, everything. I have tried the expensive stuff and much of it is not nearly as good. Some of it is, but why pay more than Turtle Wax costs. It lasts, works well on clear coats and holds up in our 100+ degree Summers and through monsoon rains.

You can spend more but you won't get a better wax to protect your car. you might get some glossier shines, but the hard shell protection is what I care about and with 2 coats you get a great shine.

Turtle Wax has served me well for every car I have had. Again i have tried others, but never been happy like my old Turtle Wax.

Just about all of them.

Quality finish, great shine, and exceptional durability!!

Idiotic reviewers that probably applied it with sand paper!!

I've been using the original turtle Wax super hard shell wax since 1992. My grandfather has since the 1950's. Time and time again this high quality product has really proved to be among the best. Years ago a television show had ran a Plymouth Reliant through 52 car washes. Prism spray wax on one corner of the hood (no longer sold) it faded away, Meguiar's on another corner (beaded slightly) Blue Coral (slight beading) and Turtle Wax (full beading). The Turtle had outlasted them all! I'm not surprised! I have a red Cavalier, notorious for clear coat fade as well as paint peeling (G.M. quality) But not mine!! After 9 years outside, my red Chevrolet paint job is still really shiny. Don't be put off by those stupid negative reviews. People probably are sold on the propaganda for a $20 to $50 can or bottle of wax with some funky expensive sounding name. The Turtle is usually under $4 It has worked well for me and all of my 5 cars!!

-long lasting (at least 4 months for me)
-deep shine
-easy to apply (paste)
-inexpensive

-adding another layer won't make it more shiny
-a little hard to get it off (paste)

I'm pretty pleased with Turtle Wax. I've been using the paste (not the liquid) for a while and it works pretty well. My Honda is a magnesium (grey metalic) color, and Turtle Wax really makes it shine and give the paint depth.

I usually keep the wax on for about 4 months, then I strip it off and re-apply it.
Rain water still beads after 4 months, so I don't know why some people wrote that Turtle Wax will come off in a week. I also don't see how it could produce paint bubles or dry out the paint?

I live in the Chicagoland area so the air quality isn't the best, and my car is rarely in the garage - most of the time it's parked outside. Turle Wax still manages to stay on the car for at least 4 months.

P.S. I Meguair's car wash concentrate which won't strip the wax. I wash my car every other week.

BOTTOM LINE: If you just want a nice deep shine and good protection for a few months at a time, without spending too much money (about $3), Turtle Wax is a very good choice.
If you love detailing cars and need a show-car-quality shine, try something more expensive (Zaino).

Use it in your garden to kill weeds.

Not much actual wax in this wax- very, very watered down ingredients.

Wow. Cannot believe what garbage Turtle Wax is. Has an almost water like consistency to it. Bottom line: You get what you pay for. This is Walmart grade garbage for the masses. If you want pro results stick with Mother's or Maguire's.

Wax, leaves protective coating on top layer of paint.

Will easily wear off from acidic rain,weather, etc. Known to cause some paint problems and blemishes. Will dry out in can if not properly taken care of.

Turtle Wax is a somewhat bland wax. Meguires is alright but Mothers brand wax is somewhat better when applied with the glaze and 100% carnauba wax. Nu-Finish is a great wax, polymer based wax is perfect for clear coats and will bead water and shine for months. Take the Turtle Wax back and get Mothers or Nu-Finish, you want be disappointed.

on older cars, good beading for 3 months, and decent shine

Has a harsh chemical in it that reacts with touch up paint.

I have used Turtle Wax on all of my cars for the last 10 years, and Meguiars for the last 4 years. On my Audi A4, we have used only Meguiars, then a month ago I wanted to use some Turtle Wax because of the long lasting beading and my positive experience with it. Now all of my touch up paint is pealing back and shrinking. In some places it looks like it is starting to bubble. So far only the touch up paint is doing this, the original paint is not. I have never had any problems with Turtle Wax until now, so just watch out if you have a newer model car and use dealer touch up paint on it. If anyone has any advice for me let me know.

Easy on easy off. Last really long...up to 12 months on some cars!

Not the best wax out there but it's priced cheap. Best bank for ur buck!

Works great on light colored cars and works pretty well on dark colors. I am a car detailer and have used this for over a year. I really haven't had any major problems except some hard buffing needed on two black cars.
