    Don't have a clue, but here's an Amazon link if you want to see what others say:

    I use it on my RT. I might have been expecting a bit too much out of it. I will probably redo everything and replace with Colinite.

    I bought into the hype and spent the coin to try it. Not that impressed. It does leave a very slick surface after treatment that does bead water well. It doesn't seem to last very long, and you need a very clean surface before application. I've decided to go back to Top Coat F11. It performs just as well, but can also be applied to a dirty surface and will act as a cleaner. Spray it on a lightly soiled surface and wipe it down. Apply a light mist again and then buff it out. Works well for me. The Hydrosilex will probably be gifted to someone I'm not that fond of .

    Yes, I used it all over my RT. Extremely easy to use.

    I switched from Pledge to the Johnson brand. Does the same job and smells the same. Half the money of Pledge at Wally world.
    I've used Pledge on my bikes and customer's bikes for over 20 years and haven't found much that works any better.

    Default Last Coat blows F11 away

    I have used F11 top coat and was happy until I had to wash the bike. Looked for better solution and found reviews of Last Coat. Very impressive. Also the first time I was ever able to clean windows in the house without steaks. Not sure if any are worth the money but I have spent mine on Last coat and will be staying with it.

    I tried it on my bike and car. Did not work for me. Very costly. Turtle spray wax is much better.
    They will get you on the shipping also. Just stick with a good carnuba wax. Turtle spray wax has carnuba and is very easy to apply with no white residue. Spray it on everything, body, windshield, plastic .
