I used Turtle Wax Ice liguid right after I bought mine 14 months ago and it holds up well. I'm not into clay bars and waxing every month just maybe 3 times a year and my X1 is garaged.
I've used Turtle Ice Liquid a few times over the years on my Mazda RX8.

It seems to protect alright although acts like perfumed diesel, and smeary.

I had lots better luck with Turtle Wax Spray Detailer which also works very good on plastic interior.

However, I studied reviews on Amazon for other spray detailers, and I waxed same RX8 with 3M Spray wax over a month ago, and it's still slick under the dust it collects.

You spray and wipe some, let dry, and you'll see the tiniest white streaks that look like old school wax.

That film wipes off very easy with the final microfiber rag.

I wipe the bug juice off with Turtle wax bug and tar spray.

I'm a tired 61 year old so that's all I can do for my X1 maybe twice a year.
