I use several depending of circumstances...
For paste wax I love anything Carnuba (Mothers' in particular), but I thinks it's a pain to apply and is not necesary for "clear coat" finishes. The ever popular Turtle Wax paste seems to work fine on everything I've used it on. Believe it or not I find that for me the easiest to apply/remove on clear coat finishes is the (as seen on TV) Finish 2001. |

Do you buff or wax by hand?
Mothers or Mcguire's will do the job,the trick is to use liquid with a buffer and paste if you hand wax. As for my car/trucks it's Mcguire's Gold. You will never find anything other than MG and bird crap on my ride[:D] |

I can't remember ever washing a vehicle or waxing it for that matter, but I do have a half bottle of Mcguire's for some reason

Klasse polish and sealant, topped with pure carnuba liquid wax. OK, just the nice car gets that. I use McGuires cleaner wax on the rest cause I'm soooo lazy.

Up until five years ago I had tried just about every product advertised, but never found anything better than Mcguire's. I stumbled across a product called Zaino on the internet. I've never used anything as easy to apply and remove and nothing I had tried before lasted as long. I must have thrown out a dozen different brands after I found this stuff.

Make sure you use a wax, and not a cleaner/wax. A new car doesn't need oxidation removed, and there should not be a layer of crud removed either.
good luck!! |

Zaino is the best. You must buy from a local distributor or off their web page. They do not sell it at Autozone, etc.

Quoted: Zaino is the best. You must buy from a local distributor or off their web page. They do not sell it at Autozone, etc. www.zainobros.com I'll second the kudso to Zaino and Klasse. I use Klasse All-In-One and Sealant Glaze, which is a polymer sealant on my black car with great effect, and then top that off with a layer or three of One Grand Blitz paste wax. A shine that lasts forever and water beads for 6 months. Try getting that out of normal paste wax, which evaporates on a black car in less than a month. Zaino bros is virtually identical, but the shine is much deeper and wetter looking. But both provide protection a traditional car wax can only dream about. Remember the Alamo and God Bless Texas... |

nobody mentioned Turtle? I bought a new car in February, but I've only waxed it once. I hand waxed, so I used some Turtle Wax paste I got at Target. I washed with just water, then washed with soap and water, then polished and then waxed. Let me tell you what, my car shined like a new penny!
....for about a week before it rained and made it look like crap again. Three hours of work fv |

Listen to these guys, Zaino is all that. I used Meguires Professional products for 10 years, until I tried Zaino a year and a half ago.
Zaino is so easy to use, and lasts as well as any paste I've used. If you would like to read more about what other users and detailers think about it, go over to autopia's car care forums: [url]http://autopia.ws/forums/index.php[/url] |
