Looks good. I've been looking at Sherbet Fizz. Eventually you need to put together a ranking with a point system with all these waxes

There will be a JHAT episode on sherbet fizz soon enough!

A point ranking is actually a very very good idea! I'll definitely do that, thanks for the suggestion

Nice video. The cool thing is bouncers are homebrew wax, all handmade and hand poured by Jay. I just found that it is very oily, although it spreads great.

You're not kidding! It is very oily and seems indefinitely wet which is very weird for me lol

I found removal actually quite difficult since it seemed to spread rather than remove. I'm going to try making it an even thinner application next time and see if that helps

No problem. Just a scoring that takes into account application, look, longevity or durability say after 1 month.

Did you apply it by hand or machine? I don't remember it in the video.

But can't wait to see sherbet fizz thanks again!

I hear it has more gloss enhancing properties. Is that true?

Sorry I must of misunderstood you. I don't think I would do that kind of scoring as that is all subjective in my opinion.

I was going to do an actual scoring on the beading and sheeting:

1) Fuzion: Beading 8 Sheeting 3
2) BlackICE: Beading 8.5 Sheeting 9.5
3) Adam's: Beading 8.5 Sheeting 8.5
4) Capture The Rapture: Beading 9.5 Sheeting 9

The waxed side looked shiny... but so did the unwaxed side. Both sides were polished prior to waxing. I really couldn't tell a difference.

FWIW: I couldn't tell a difference with the other waxes either.

Corey said CTR was packed with gloss enhancers.
Glad you reviewed it.

Maybe I need a better gloss enhancing viewing eye?

Idk, I just see such little difference on a polished panel. Now, don't get me wrong, I'm not saying there isn't a difference like the Junkman says, just that I can't see it. I'm sure if you used a gloss-o-meter, you could tell. Or maybe someone with better eyes.

Gonna buy a gloss-o-meter on eBay right now !
About the only time I notice a more glossy/shiny surface is when a sealant is applied.

Did you buy the full pot or get a sample ?

A really small sample. I didn't want a beauty wax, but did want to test it out for JHAT
