I bought that wind deflector. I found it difficult to see out the back window, but my back window needed to be replaced, so it was more that. But, the two together was impossible. Anyway the shine armor definitely did a better job.
The lack of hydrophobics causes the water to cling together, also called sheeting. Sheeting can actually shed water faster and more efficiently than a tremendously hydrophobic surface. The purpose of a good wax isnt primarily water shedding, its self-cleaning, and preventing contaminates from sticking to car and embedding themselves into the paint. To me it seems that all 3 products are still working fine as they should after only a month with regular washing. My money woild be on the meguires spray lasting far longer and protecting better than the other two products. But, its of upmost importance to use a product such as these spray waxes to lubricate the drying towel to induce the least amount lf marring possible. Most scratches actually come from un-lubricated drying rather than improper washing techniques as most think. So im my "professional" opinion, when dealing with your own routinely washed car, the best wax is going to be one that perfoms best as a drying aid, and lasts at least long enough until your next wash, that has maximum self-cleaning properties. The two best commonly available products you will find at an auto parts store that foot the bill would be that bottle of green meguires, and "turtle wax ice seal n shine" TW is the cheaper of the two, and may actually last longer, but i personally prefer working with the meguires ceramic detailer. Should be noted I don't use either of these products professionally, have just ran tests on my personal cars. Sorry for the load of unsolicited advice, hope this can help someone.

I love it and appreciate the long comments! Pro opinions always welcome here! For the money I will buy the meguiars again when both run out .
