so i go a bit crazy and buy this car wash , then a new wax; then a different car wash, and some other random product-
i have built up quite the collection - mostly from my civic
since i have only had bette for 6 (winter) months
anyway- my civic was "clover green" it was a 99
i found a pic through google- i have no idea whos car it is but it was the same i had


anyway... the color was cool- easy to keep clean and looked awesome when newly cleaned-
i think i like NHBP so much too bc they both had blue flakes..

anyway getting to the point!
one of the waxes i had around was turtle wax ice


i had yet to use it on the fit- and wasnt all that excited at first bc it never really gave that "wow" with my civic.. so it sat and i used paste wax and all that, then today (4/10/08)..
i used it!
OMG lol
USE IT!
here are the results
just look at that shine!


it says not to use it on glass- but i have always done it anyway- look at the windows they are soo shiny clean
it also says you can use it on everything else- rubber- plastic, (i dont think there are any other parts besids metal...)

i usually go to walmart and get the 25 pack of microfiber for like 34 cents,
use one to apply and another to wipe off in about 10 minutes-
even in direct sunlight

heres a close up of the finish- and a sticker- its like a mirror


(these pics were taken with my iphone- so thats y they are over saturated
they are not edited after-= straight off)

so long story (really) short- if u want a good product go get it!
it works awesome on out NHBPs

 

Turtle Wax Ice liquid wax is really good. For paste (well, it's pasty) I use Meguiar's wax. It's not a liquid but it's not a solid paste. It oozes, and makes it really easy to apply.

CURSE YOU
i wanna go wax my car now, too. :-( but I've been WAAAAAY too busy with school.

 

the thing with pastes-

it takes about 35 years to get the white crap out of the little cracks ands hit
this ice is clear- i think it might just be baby oil bc thats what it feels like lol
ive used mcdonalds b4 too- not that great of a result

 

i usually use the meguiars wax, but that stuff works niceeee

ps, do you have a straight pic of your hatch? i love your sticker.

 

why yes i do, please hold

laaa lala aa hmm hhmhm music notes..

well theres just this one of my crazy taillights- but you cant see the sticker anyway- its BLACK! lol

 

whoa talk about super ninja. love it though.

 

Just used the same stuff on my car yesterday worked really really really well. Only problem I had is got to much wax in the cracks around the mirror and handles and didn't get it out so when it poured to today ( which it still is pouring ) Some of it got out of the crack and left a streak down the side of the car which was easily cleaned up.

 

Cost $20 at Costco where I live. Just a hint of warning when using this. Make sure you wipe well when drying because this will leave a residue if you leave it to dry. Otherwise, it'll remove at least 80% of dirt from the car. I got 2 microfiber sponges from the last bottles, so I use them to apply swirl remover and wax.

 

heck yeah costco has the package deal


i bought that and the turtle car wash. man that ice car wash smells sooooo good. its so invigorating haha.


perfect combo if you use all of them. and then buy you a whole 32 set of microfiber towels to wash your ride.

all that for like under 40 bucks ish something like that. cheap!

 

ya u gotta wipe it all off, but the good things
*you can go any direction,
*your arms never get as sore as they would if u pasted
*theres never the whites hit in the cracks,
..

fitcapo...
you had white drips from the ice? or paste?
ive never had ice leave white drips b4

 

DUDE i kno i love this stuff, i've used it twice so far. i have a few pics of after the 1st use (sorry to any1 with dial-up lol). They're really old, too. so ignore the stock-ness and just admire the shine...

 

hey rex! we have the same cars! we should meet up some time!
lol

and ps- im jealous of your flat driveway!

 

Look At That Sexxi Car

 

its really yours no jk..
u saw my car at its dirtiest (dont let anyone know it was dirty... and i wont tell how dirty your car was lol)

 

Yea, sure. How about we meet in CT on May 10th?
U Know It!

hey hondasforlife is from the area too lets have a black fit meet..

(if you are on the outside of this joke-- we accidently had a black sport fit meet the first time we met up- not really knowing who was gonna be there and it was just a bunch of black fits )

 

Good Times ....YEAH MAYBE WE CAN HAVE A REUNION ON MAY 10TH OF COURSE WITH A COUPLE OTHER FITS..SORRY ABOUT CAPS(rexxxx)..IM AT WORK :P

 

no matter how hard you clean NBHP after a few days, dust all over.

 

and it begins....
POLLEN!
ok so 1 day its so clean
next you have a lime green car!
from all the pollen!
and dont try washing your windshield with the washers, you will wind up with lime green slime all over the place

 

summer is the only good season
spring.. pollen /rain
summer hot sun and open windows!
fall -- rain and fallen leaves making leaf prints all over the place
winter. SALT grr
