Optimum Spray Wax versus carnauba...

How does it compare to $50.00-$75.00 paste waxes from Lusso Oro, Dodo Juice, Natty's, Vic's, etc ? Would be used as a topper over a sealant.

Ive never used any of those waxes so Im not certain how OCW would compare. I would say OCW is every bit worth (and more) of the $15.00 per pint. Quick, easy, great hybrid protection, great looks.
Nothing personal dannyboy, I just dont know why anyone would spend over $40.00 for a wax or sealant? IMO/IME its all about marketing? ESPECIALLY with car care products.

You can't really compare a spray wax with a carnuba paste since they are totally different applications, spray wax would definitely be used as a topper

But OCW is well suited as a LSP as well..........I would lay odds that the OCW hybrid would outlast a Nuba paste....
The last time I used a Nuba, it was S100 in 2004. I found myself applying it too often. Never looked at another jar of Nuba since then.
Heck I even had/have some Megs #16 somewhere that I never even used. That stuff for the longest time, was toted as the elite Nuba.....
(Why do I ramble on?)

I tried some of the Dodo Juice for my Silver Type S. I mention that because I got the Dodo Juice that's supposed to be good for metallic finishes. I've got to say that the stuff is very good-I'm impressed!
