I have 3/4 gallon and did the same. I use it as a drying aid and mostly on my work vehicle.

I purchased this last time, and I'm not sure what all the fuss is about.
It smears on glass and the fragrance is just ok, imo. Each to their own!

I've tried it diluted and using it near.
I prefer the Turtle Wax hybrid ceramics.

I don't like using it on glass. I like it as a drying aid after every wash, for that it's supremely cheap. It's not a replacement A real spray wax/sealant or a real ceramic coating. I used meguiars D156 for years as a drying aid, and this does about the same for me while being less expensive and a little better to apply.

One of the best detailers on the market. Many professionals use it as well. Nice price. A little goes a long way with this one. In my experience, smearing is caused by overapplication = too much spray.

Got this last month and used it dry on three cars. Pretty happy with the results. Haven't tried it as a drying aid yet but will do that the next car wash.

For dry application you really gotta do a small area at a time and buff it almost immediately with another dry microfiber. Follow the instructions and it works really well.

Great price, my Amazon orders show the last 2 orders I made for this were $41 and $36 so definitely going to bite at $26.

I dilute and use as a drying aid, then buff off with microfiber towel. The shine it leaves is incredible.

Is this a spray on / wipe off wax? I guess I'll need a separate spray bottle.

I've personally never used this, but many people swear by it. At this price, it is almost free for how much you need. If nothing else it's a very nice drying aid with nice hydrophobics. I'm in.

I prefer Griot Garage's Ceramic 3-in-1 over this. Have tried both, and I find Griot's is easier to apply. Both last roughly the same for me.
With Griot's I usually spray one squirt on a microfiber cloth, spread it on a panel, then immediately wipe it out with another microfiber cloth. Takes ~30-40 seconds per panel, and I can wax my entire car in under 10 minutes. Then I park in the garage overnight which gives it enough time to cure before exposing it to sunlight/rain/elements.
Griot's suggests doing the application twice (2nd one after 24 hours), however I have not found the need to do so. Instead, I apply twice (immediately, one after the other) for the heavy soiled areas like rooftop and lower panels.

That said, at $26 this is a pretty good deal. If I did not have a decent supply of Griot's already, I would've jumped on the deal.

Either of these will last with proper care. Either you park your car indoors, or you use a rinseless cleaner like Griot's speed shine or Optimum No Rinse (ONR) every 3-4 weeks to clean the car.
