What wax is best?

What are you using on you new 2006 to wax it up like it was on the showroom floor?

Well I ahve come fond of meguires next gen wax "synethic polymer" makes it a nice deep color, I have used mothers, zimol, 3m liquid way, marykate poilshing wax, woody wax, and thing of that nature. I like the next gen b/c its an easy application b/c their is no carnuba to make it get really hard. So you can apply it, take a nap, take a ****, go for a run around the block, take another nap, then rub it in and it will be like you just applyed it.

I LOVE the Meguire's Gold Class paste. Has a great luster. It's harder work because it is a paste(also comes in liquid). I only work by hand. Have only used Meguire's products on both street rods and my other vehicles. I detail cars on the side and it is the best way to impress customers. A gloss they did't think was possible on a car that is not waxed regularly. Buy the paste, nothing good comes easy.

I dunno about that paste thing. I detail interiors and I like the Meguires Nxt Gen cockpit shine I would like to thinkk that thier wax would hold up to that standard as well.

firedoc is right the paste is nasty good but I am too lazy for all of that work thats why I like the next gen.

Any wax would do just make sure it has carnuba wax in it. When I have my old truck painted that is what the shop told me.

I don't think anyone was referring to interiors Sanguinius.

Firedoc if you read the WHOLE post I wrote I said that I didn't know about EXTERIOR wax but have found the NXT to be great on interior so I would figure they'd have the same quality on thier EXTERIOR products. Reread my previous post THOROUGHLY before critisizing me please. Thank you.

Oh yeah.....Real Clear.

The next gen wax from meguires has a synthetic polymer in it... its better then carnuba, deeper shine, lasts longer, applys easier. I work for a boat store and I have talked to a company rep from meguires about all the different kinds of waxes and what not. Carnuba is old school turtule wax crap.

The problem i have with wax is it gets in the few paint chips i have and turns them white which makes them very visable on a red car... Is there a wax that wont do this or is there a way of getting rid of this problem?

I know Turtlewax used to make a colormatch wax paint chip stick. It was basically close to the color of your car and you wiped it over paint chips to fill in before waxing. Worked pretty well I thought.

next gen wax dries clear opposed to white like a carnuba wax

turtle Wax is the worst. Meguires Gold is my Fav. I am big on detailing and have tried a ton of stuff so far its the best I have used. Keep in mind my car is black it is the worst color to keep clean and it is very hard to wax because if you use cheap stuff it will streak all over the car and will take hours apon hours to get out. look at the shine in these pic I love it. it like a mirror image. the first is the rear door on the passengers side of the car.

Nice wax job man almost like you were takin a pic of a mirror LOL Just how it SHOULD be!

Oooooo shiny, pretty car....

Bavarian Autosport has a decent solution for paint chips. www.bavauto.com

Here's the exact place. http://www.bavauto.com/shop.asp

I lied. I guess that didn't work. Go to Exterior and detailing, then to detailing gear.
