Hi Luke, I wonder a lot 2, and many times get lost in thought
or in my own `space
Option 1. Buy `it & give us a review.
Option 2. Wait for Consumer Reviews
Option 3. Keep Wondering
I couldn't find the price for the kit, but my computer
is hanging `up.
Are you back home, and have your Monte back on the road ?
Wish you a safe/happy/fun summer.
Let us know `if you buy, and how it works.
Good Luck

If it's not too expensive I guess any new product is worth a try.

Well seeing as i got bored and had nothing to do i went out and bought it. it was only $20
from advance auto.

it comes with 2 foam applicator pads, and 4 12oz bottles of different cleaning solutions and waxes.

I think i am going to try it on my dads 95 tahoe first, yes its black. i am going to do one panel of my dads truck to see how it goes tomorrow, i will take before and after pics to see if there is a differences.

instructions say that for an average size sedan it will take 3 hours to do all the steps. so my car will have to wait till the weekend because i plan to clay bar my car first then do this kit.

and Mr. Space the monte is back on the road and i have allready went through 4 tanks of gas because i missed it so much and i put in the ZZp throttle body that i had on. the engine screams now i love it.

Why would someone want to have their turtle waxed?

Monte Carlo owners are weird.
