Does it smell? The green bottle TW dry and wipe does. A little too much. Bugs like to land on car and die there, belly up.

I'm using the "Ice" version of the TW and it doesn't smell... It is different from the one pictured in your post...

Good luck,

Ed

The Ice works great. No white residue and minimal odour.

Oh what brand/type do you use?
I use the Chemical Guys 5050 Paste wax. Its a bit on the spendy side but the shine is great!
