Title: poorboys natty wax
Post by: mkviken on 03 March 2012, 17:30
just bought some poor boys natty wax to try as the meguiars I've been using doesn't seem to last long.

I've got the poor boys wheel sealant and am well impressed with it so decided to give the wax paste a go too and its less than half the price of dodo juice.

anyone tried the natty wax? any good?

I absolutely LOVE Nattys paste wax!  I am on my 2nd pot of Nattys blue as it is easy on, easy off, gives a great 'wet' look and lasts.  Nattys Red is also great too as it smells of strawberries.

As said above its a great wax, I personally only use it in the summer amongst others

Not the most durable wax but very nice smelling. I use this in summer on the odd panel.

I do find autogylm HD wax better. Much better gloss and quite hard waring for the same money, and its availible at local halfrauds.

Poorboys wheel sealant is a tad hyped. Just buy a pot of colinite wax. Wheel sealer AND hard waring wax for the same money.

Not used the poor boys but the longest lasting I've used is the collinite 476s lasted real well over this winter on the Leon and real well on the golfs over the summer

Excellent wax and smells good enough to eat  :grin:

As above, it's not the most durable, but still a great wax

nattys lasts quite well on my own car i've found, but it was getting washed at least once a week, and topped up every 2-4 weeks. Gives good shine and pretty spectacular beading.

that said most waxes i top after a few weeks

I wash mine at least one or 2 times a week depending how much or even if it driven so should hopefully last well.

Fantastic wax, easy to use and leaves a fabulous liquid shine. Start with Poorboys Black Hole Show Glaze [For dark colours] then finish with the Nattys wax, superb.

as i can't drive it and was bored sh!tless i decided to put another coat on today one handed (got a cast on my other hand  :cry:)

also sealed the wheels again and they look amazing.

also just got some poorboys white diamond glaze to try next time i polish it and some blue nattys wax to try my black car.

i usually use SRP which i find really good so will see if the white diamond is any better

From what I understand and read about on DW forum, Poorboys Black Hole does a similar job to AG SRP. Both still great products none the less.

the label on diamond white reads almost the same as the SRP one so I'm guessing its similar stuff.

smells a lot nicer than the SRP anyway so should be nicer to use for a start!
