Shield is a Graphene Oxide synthetic wax. This formula is our most durable wax, by replacing carnauba with Graphene oxide as the main ingredient that offers protection. Shield won’t break down in high temperatures or be affected by detergents nearly as much as carnauba wax. Shield is highly recommended for vehicles that have been ceramic coated, because carnauba-based wax’s do not react properly on coated vehicles. In turn, adding even more protection and durability to your coating! Shield is also a great option as a stand-alone product on a non-coated vehicle. If you are looking for an easy-to-use durable wax that can last 6+ months this is defiantly the wax for you
