Heritage Carnauba Wax

Liquid wax gives rivals a pasting

Paste-style car waxes are renowned for their long-lasting performance – but Heritage thinks it has a worthy rival with its new Carnauba liquid. 

Application was easy, and the product dried to a light haze after only a few minutes – something that can be helpful in the often cool British climate.

It did, however, smell chemically enhanced, and not the carnauba aroma we were expecting. Nevertheless, buffing was simple, requiring only a couple of light sweeps with our cloth. 

In comparison with other leading waxes – including the traditionally durable pastes – Heritage held its own. We found it was still beading strongly after four weeks. 

Its ease of application, performance and value for money mean there’s little to dislike about this product. It’s a must for those who want to protect their paintwork efficiently with minimal fuss.

Heritage Carnauba Wax

Price: £13.99 (300ml)

Rating: 4/5

Problems? Rather unpleasant aroma, and consistency a little too watery for our taste.

So why buy? Very easy to apply and buff off, good durability and decent value.

Jaguar will prove the naysayers wrong by building a monolith of design and taste

Jordan Katsianis thinks the criticism of Jaguar’s bold new approach is misplaced. If anything, it isn’t bold enough.
