Review: I have been detailing cars as a hobby for about 20 years now. 10 years ago I discovered P21S and it has been my wax of choice ever since. For vehicles that are worth the hassle I will go through an initial process to perfect the paint as much as possible. CLEAN - CLAY - BUFF, wash with strong Dawn mixture to strip everything off - Then SEAL with something like Zaino or Optimum Gloss Coat - and finally WAX. From that point forward I will only apply P21S wax periodically. Supposedly without the hardeners this wax will not last as long as others with the hardeners in them BUT my experience has been the opposite. I use this on a daily driver that gets washed once a week (with the P21S wash) and through the harsh winters and summers in Iowa I can go 6-9 months and still get nice beading when washed. It's also a good wax for everyday vehicles because I doesn't leave the white residue on plastics, rock chips, rubber, etc. It goes on easily and wipes off clean with little pressure. Not being loaded with the cleaners, dyes, and junk like 99% of the waxes you'll find at the local parts stores means this won't leave white all over the plastics and rubber. In fact, you could apply this to those things and it will wipe clear - though I recommend using other products to protect those things. It's a great all-around wax and though its initial expense can be considered "expensive" A single jar of this will do ~20 vehicles and its shelf life is forever - unlike the liquid waxes which seem to turn to slime & oil if it sits around for very long. It's hard for me to know exactly how many cars a can will do because it gets picked up and used around the dealership constantly. Everyone likes how easy it is to use! Review: I have used the concours p21s and thought it was well worth the money, but was skeptical of this being that much better. I decided for the twenty dollar difference to just go ahead and give it a try. This wax compared to the concours has a noticable difference in thickness when spreading, but was just as simple to remove. Another review said difficult to remove, don't let that review discourage you as it almost did me. You have to apply to a cool surface in the shade as with about any wax. This wax comes off with ease and did not use a machine to bring out a deep gloss and shine. As far as the shine compared to the concours, I feel there is a slight difference in depth of shine but it definitely has a heavier coating of wax that seems more durable, for me the twenty dollar difference is worth it. I also had no problems with residue on black trim, but not all rubber or plastic trims are the same. All in all this for me is a great wax that applies and removes with ease and leaves a deep glossy shine. ## Features - Maximum carnauba content - Terrific longevity - Detergent resistance - No dyes or cleaner or perfumes ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B016XVD8D0 | | Brand | P21S | | Customer Reviews | 4.0 4.0 out of 5 stars (83) | | Date First Available | 14 April 2012 | | Item Weight | 177 g | | Item model number | 12701W | | Manufacturer | P21S | | Manufacturer Part Number | 12701W | | Model | 12701W | | Product Dimensions | 12.7 x 10.16 x 10.16 cm; 176.9 g | ## Product Details - **Brand:** P21S - **Item form:** Paste - **Item weight:** 177 g - **Recommended uses for product:** For Polishing, Paint Protection - **Specific uses for product:** Surface Protection ## Images ![12701W 100% Carnauba Wax - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81c+KenJIFL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Does it have uva and uvb protection** A: Yes, it has uva protection but as far as the uvb protection goes, I would suggest contacting the manufacturer for a more definite answer. My understanding of uvb protection is usually applied to the body in helping preventing skin cancer(s), however it's very possible that it is also used in other ways I'm not familiar with. **Q: Can you use it as a topper to a ceramic coating? Will it remove it?** A: I can't say weather the wax will remove a ceramic coating, however I have wax'ed ( using P21s wax) over two cars with a ceramic coding and it seems to exrend the period between waxing jobs. **Q: Has anyone tried this on an EM pinball play field?** A: I have not. But, I do use it on my cars and find it is an excellent wax. Easy to put on and take off as long as you don't leave it one more than about 20 minutes. **Q: can it be used for white cars** A: I use it on a pearl white Yukon XL Denali and it looks fantastic. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by M***T on 5 May 2016* I have been detailing cars as a hobby for about 20 years now. 10 years ago I discovered P21S and it has been my wax of choice ever since.

This is one of the best wax you can get but I guess it has a shelf life. What surprises me the most is for this price you would think it would come in a sealed Packaging to keep it from drying out. Maybe you will have better luck but I returned mine. Update! called customer support never called me back. I have some pictures that I wanted to show what the tub of wax look like when I took it out of the box. The tub is a two-piece that came unglued somehow. I guess they use a two-piece tub to make it look like you're getting more other than that I'm not sure why. It was stored in the box upside down and when I pulled it out it separated. The wax inside was rattling and when I opened it up I just fell apart. If I didn't catch it it would have fallen onto the floor. I put it all on a black microfiber towel basically to show you what I received. I wish they would have contacted me to find out why this being my second one are coming like this. It's a great wax but you just can't use it like this. ## Frequently Bought Together - P21S 12701W 100% Carnauba Wax - P21S 12350B Paintwork Cleanser Bottle, 350 ml - Chemical Guys MIC_506_12 Professional Grade Premium Microfiber Towels, Gold (16 Inch x 16 Inch) (Pack of 12) - Safe for Car Wash, Home Cleaning & Pet Drying Cloths --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/329354095-12701w-100-carnauba-wax](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/329354095-12701w-100-carnauba-wax) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-05-22*
