Expert Analysis

The product uses an organo-modified wax emulsion as its primary active ingredient to provide both cleaning and enhancement properties in a single step. The slightly alkaline pH (8.0) helps with light contaminant removal while the wax component deposits a thin protective layer that enhances gloss. The formulation relies on high lubricity rather than traditional surfactants to safely lift dirt without scratching.

Key Differentiators

  • Organo-modified wax emulsion provides simultaneous cleaning and wax enhancement in one product
  • Full ingredient disclosure with excellent transparency rating

Potential Concerns

  • Limited cleaning power due to absence of dedicated surfactants for heavier contamination
  • Wax-based formula may show streaking on hot surfaces or in direct sunlight
