The turtle wax liquid ice is by far the easiest wax i have ever used. Almost to easy truck looks good though . I interested in seeing how long it will hold up

Most "wax" lasts for about 3-4 weeks depending on the number of times you wash your vehicle and whether you park inside or outside. A good "sealant" will last about 6 months depending on the above circumstances. I would also recommend that you look at a Porter Cable or similar style buffer. I think you will be happier with the results and it will give you many more options as far as pads go. It will also save you some time and effort if you use it correctly.

^^^^very well put. The only part of my truck that sees the use of a drill are the rims when polishing. I don't think I would dare use a drill on the paint, holy swirls.

You can go to "autogeek" or "autopia" and look at the different types of buffers they offer for sale. They are used by beginners and professionals alike. Once you read about what's available out there you can make a more informed decision. There are also a couple of vendors on this site that sell detail supplies that you can check out their offerings. I use the Porter Cable and have found that it does an excellent job.
