Hmmmm... spotted this in the Anderson's tonight while shopping for tools...

Comes with a thin, foam applicator pad.

Now, I used Ice Detail Spray for a few months this summer, and I thought it was OK (not nearly in the same league as, say, DP Slick, but OK), but THIS....

Well, this sort of worries me. It's just... not something I'd expect to see. Like "tangy maonaise". Or "jalapeño ice cream". Or "crunchy peanut butter"...

...

Wait... thay have that last one. Come to think of it, they may have ALL of them. Now I'm REALLY afraid.

And what's with that "triple action formula"? Why do AMericans need every product to do multiple things? Is it because stuff costs so damn much now? Does it "Coat... soothe... and relieve"? Or maybe it quells your paint's "burning, itching and swelling", a la Tuck's Pads? Personally, I think whatever it means it's overkill - all I want in a Single-action clay bar that simply "gets crap out of paint".

Still, I'm cautious, yet curious.

 

it looks alot like the ICE i have, it seems to not really clense the paint, but just make it glass smooth. Apply with applicator pad, allow 10-15mins to cure, and remove. More of a polish then a 'liquid clay bar'.

 

They use to call that rubbing compound, but have hip'd it up for the young kids out there.
You know those kids with their lingo and their wild crazy love fests and drugs and stuff. Why back when I was a kid we used dirt, yup just rubbed it on the car and it was crap but we were thankful we had that. Now there's a product for this and an application for that, shiny box with all the writing and crap. Ooh look at me I got lots of colours on my box I must be really something. I got triple-action I must be totally tubular dude. Why back when I was a kid our stuff didn't even have single action, it was all crap and it didn't do nothing and we were thankful we had that. Now there's double acting this, triple-action that and quadraphonic with all those colours and such. Now everything has a polymer or a multimer, nothing's ever just good enough it has to always be new and improved, or faster acting, or extra strength. Horse-hockey! Back when I was a kid everthing we bought was a monomer and it was all crap and we were thankful for it. Whatever happened to the good ol'days anyway? Where's my 8-track? Damn kids! :impatient

 

hahahaha what in the world just happened!!!

 

I HAVE NO IDEA! I read that post following mine and couldn't do anything but scratch my head

 

Good one MiniMaybee

Now I've just had my coffee - much better so never mind!
Yeah, looks great.

 

Ahh, he was in withdrawal from his caffeine, that will do it Welcome back MiniMaybee

 

Minimaybe, that was great!

 

When's your birthday, Minimaybe? I'll send this to you:

 

Sounded like the grumpy old man from SNL. "That's the way it was... and we like it."

 

I told my dad that I was going to start detailing BMW's last spring and he ran to the garage and brought an old worn tub of that stuff. Needless to say, it has since been replaced by Prima.

 

Really, just a slight caffeine imbalance - disregard the man behind the curtain.
And don't get me started on birthdays, all I got this year was some stupid free Griots detailing guide.

 

Imagox pimps ho's
