Is this a wax or a sealant?

It is a pure synthetic wax, which works like a sealant. There is no carnauba in it.

How is it different from Meguiar's carnauba waxes?

It lasts longer and beads water more strongly. Carnauba waxes give a warmer glow but usually need reapplying sooner.

Does it remove scratches or swirls?

No. It is a protective wax, not a polish. Use a polish or compound first if you want to correct the paint.

Can I apply it by hand?

Yes. Apply a thin coat with a foam applicator, let it haze, then buff off with a microfiber towel.

What surfaces can I use it on?

It works on painted panels, chrome and trim. Keep it off textured plastic and glass.

How much do I need per car?

A thin coat covers a mid-size car. Applying it thick causes streaking and wastes product.

Our take on the Meguiar's Ultimate Liquid Wax

Meguiar's Ultimate Liquid Wax is a pure synthetic (non-carnauba) liquid wax in a 16 oz bottle. It is built to be hydrophobic, so water beads and rolls off, and Meguiar's rates it for extended protection with amplified reflectivity. It suits drivers who want a durable, easy-to-apply synthetic sealant rather than a traditional paste carnauba wax. Against carnauba waxes it lasts longer and wipes off more cleanly, but it gives a brighter, more reflective shine than the warm glow some paste wax fans prefer.
