havent used it... have used the autobathe and liked it

the japon wax gets good reviews- you should remove all other waxes or synthetics before using it. it is a blend of carnauba with other oils and waxes which they call zymes...

as you know 90% of a great finish comes in prep work so I believe that wash, clay, and the polishing is the most important but I strongly believe that carnauba paste wax does provide the paint with a warmth and depth that sealants don't. Some how the carnauba almost changes the color of the car...

Here are some pics of Lusso...
