The cationic and nonionic surfactant system enables the formula to work effectively on wet paint, allowing the silicone to deposit while accelerating water removal.
Key Differentiators
- •Wet-surface application capability eliminates the need for complete drying before waxing
- •Full ingredient transparency with all 22 components disclosed, unusual for mass-market products
