I was going to say the SVRT it also takes off the white if you get some on the stickers or running boards do the 50/50 or what ever it is I always have to look on Adams site to remember

I think its 70% SVRT and 30% water in a spray bottle. Works awesome on the tires helping it get in all the knocks and crannies and knobs without destroying the applicator

The only wax that is safe for the stickers is 100% carnauba period. Very few people here use it. Over time it will accelerate the deterioration of the plastic. Automotive "waxes" as some call them contain a cleaning component as well as other chemicals that are not intended to go on go fast stickers.

Nothing you can do to keep them from fading.

I'm gonna guess that most people don't use it because it's really only worth using for car shows. Sealants do a much better job at protecting the paint and last much longer than carnauba wax, but nothing beats the shine carnauba gives. No idea about it being unsafe, but that makes sense as most of the sealants are designed to be applied to paint and not vinyl

Yep, Super VRT is the ticket for any Matte Vinyl.

Water resistant, easy to use, and has SPF35 in it to help fight against fading!

I asked Google and I checked the Adam's website and the "Super VRT" is for tires. I've got a vinyl matte hood wrap and want something to keep the bug gut acid from making
a lot different colors. Is this what you all are using to protect your wraps???

I just got the SVRT in the mail today. Adams has a great deal on the 36 oz bottle which is what I ordered. Going to do a detail on the Jeep this weekend with it.

x2 on that.

My truck has NEVER seen soap and water, NEVER seen wax and guarantee you my paint is an 11/10. You can drive down the road and when it rains you can see the rain beading off the paint job.

I use this and HIGHLY recommend it:

http://www.meguiars.com/en/automotive/products/g3626-ultimate-wash-and-wax-anywhere/

Worth whatever price they want for it IMO. I buy it by the case from Advance Auto online using their $50 off $100 coupons off Slick Deals.

Thanks for posting this hosseface, I was looking for an alternative to hand polishing this ginormous beast. I bought a spray bottle of the Meguiar's Ultimate Wash & Wax Anywhere and used it in the bed of my new Raptor before I installed my BAK Roll-X. I'm very happy with the results and the ease of use of this product even though I hand washed the bed prior to using the wax. I'll reserve final judgement until after I do the rest of the vehicle but it is off to a good start. Now if I can just find one of those coupons you speak of.

I have some you can have it if I didn't throw it away I might have. As I was typing this I remember I used it on my old tractor to git ride of it. but if I still have some I'll let you know.
