Sonax<\/a> is a new product line recently brought to the USA. Not a lot of people know about it, and even less have experience with it. \u00a0I picked up some products while attending SEMA 2011<\/a> at the Sonax<\/a> booth. \u00a0Jason was kind enough to give me some great deals on products to try. \u00a0<\/p>\n

Those that know me, know that I will not praise a product until I’ve given it a long trial run. \u00a0In addition, if I don’t like it, I’ll tell you why and compare and contrast it’s attributes to others products that I do like. \u00a0You will not find me doing a product review and faking my enjoyment for the product only to appease the manufacturer! \u00a0I have been though so many products that I know what I like and don’t. \u00a0Now with that said, there are some products that are good but don’t fit my style of detailing…take D151 by Meguiar’s. \u00a0It’s a very nice product for an all in one detailing method, say for a used car dealer that wants to create a clean shiny look on a particular car. \u00a0I don’t do that kind of detailing – I choose to spend my energies in extreme correction. So I’m always skeptical when I hear about some new product or company claiming champagne and caviar dreams. \u00a0I digress… \u00a0Back on topic.<\/p>\n

He \u00a0told me , I “just had to” try out this Sonax glass cleaner<\/a>. \u00a0So since the price was right I gave it a whirl. \u00a0I got home, put it on the testing counter of the shop, and continued to use my favorite glass cleaner, but that green solution would just stare at me…begging for a testing session. \u00a0So I just grabbed it, did a few sprays and wiped…and wiped…and wiped…rotate towel…and wipe…and wipe…get new towel…wipe…wipe…done. And it looked amazing! \u00a0I was turned off by the amount of effort needed to get to a clean glass state, but the “minty” smell kept the product on my mind.<\/p>\n

Luckily Jason called to follow up and I rehashed the initial use and my disdain\u00a0for such a time consuming cleaning. \u00a0He laughed and said I used way too much! \u00a0Just a quick spritz is all he told me to use. How could such a small amount be correct? \u00a0We all know that if a little is good, more is better…correct? \u00a0So I gave his suggestion a second chance and low and behold…magic, it worked very nicely. No slight hazing, much less cleaning time, and it smells lovely. \u00a0So for the next 4 months I used it off and on, trying to find a situation that it didn’t work on…I’m still trying as of this writing. \u00a0It just works very well. \u00a0I took it inside the house, let the wife and kids try it out…and in my best Emeril Lagasse imitation…bam…bam…bam it works every time. \u00a0The shower glass is super clear, the mirror is bright…and now my wife wants her own bottle and the kids steal it out of the shop when they are on window duty!<\/p>\n

Is it a game changing window cleaner, superior to all others? No. \u00a0Is it better than my go to product for the past 3 years? I’d say yes. I give a slight edge to the Sonax window cleaner<\/a>. \u00a0Will I be changing over totally? Only time will tell.<\/p>\n
