I have tbe clearbra and it's virtually unnoticeable. The wax along the seam is very easy to eliminate. I heavily wax the seam and wipe it off while it is wet. This will take off old dried wax build up also.

I didn't do my box, even though it had only 11k on it at purchase, because I had Autobond's product on my RX8. I had the crap replaced once because of the nasty orange peel and the second version was as bad after only a few weeks. I waxed and rubbed and rubbed and waxed and it still looked like baby poo squeezing out of an overfilled diaper.
I'm sure whoever bought the car used had a very nice, pretty, like new front end on the car, but it looked like crap the entire time I had it.
I decided I'd rather have the front of the box repainted than have it look like it was wrapped in a clear citrus fruit while I'm enjoying it.
I have to go back and ask the guy who did my Fit, it is at least twice as glossy as what was on my 2004 Mazda.
