First time I've used this product so here goes.
My 4R Trail is black with lots of plastic so didn't want anything that left a haze, dust or residue on plastic trim and related parts, plus I don't want to spend a lot of time waxing a vehicle.
The product, ArmorAll Extreme Shield Wax states that you apply to a cool, dry and clean surface and not in a circular motion; just wipe on a 2'x3' area and wipe off, out of direct sun light.
The kit includes a microfiber towel, applicator and of course the wax.
After washing/drying the truck, I ran some errands to make sure it was good and dry when I returned.
I applied the wax as per the directions and I must say I'm rather impressed, fast and easy! The product removed easily and left no haze or film, as far as I can tell. I did go over it again with another clean microfiber towel I had just to make sure I removed all of the product. I did ALL the exterior plastic parts and again, on the flat black plastic it left no film or white residue which impressed me.
Keep in mind I did this on a cool morning, about 47* in a garage out of the sun.
The truck is still in the garage and am going to pull it out into the sunlight and see how it looks so I maybe editing my final conclusion. :shrug:
I cannot comment on the longevity of the application as this was my first go with it.
I paid $15.99 at Advance Auto and ArmorAll has a $10 rebate going on until the first of the year so for $6.00, thought I'd give it a whirl.
Here is a short video that is rather interesting about this product, enjoy.

EDIT: I forgot to mention that this product doesn't give you the "slick" feel when removing like a conventional wax does. If you're into that slick $hit feeling, this isn't for you.
