    Anyone else trying this out? It’s a water-dispersible silicone wax. Rather expensive though - around $100/Kg. Crystal clear.

    Belassi, contact Siltech directly for their line of water-dispersible alkyl modified silicones - and save a lot of money.  That price sounds WAY too high. Should be more like $15 - $20/ kg. Stay off of Lubrizol’s analogs too, they are over-priced compared to Siltech’s. Siltech rocks!

    Hey thanks for that! Yeah, Lubrizol is quite big over here, I must find who represents Siltech. :)

    Located in north Mexico. I’m in contact with Siltech but they have no distribution here, so I suspect that carriage costs from Canada might rule out supply from them. Their Web site has a lot of interesting products.
