So i looked around and i saw nothing with what kind of wax to use on your car.

So i guess the questions is what wax is good? and why?

 

Wax your car one day, then the next time use a different wax and you probably won't be able to discern any differences. My advice: use different products until you find something you like.

Wax is pretty much wax, but I've always liked Zymol.

 

Never really tried anything different, but I've always like TurtleWax Platinum.

 

zymol is great

i just recently used mothers 3 step process
cleaner, polish, & pure carnauba wax
came out streak free on my black car, like mention above zymol is great use that before on a black car also.

 

mothers pure carnauba, meguiars was good to, turtle wax is straight junk

 

i like meguiars nxt tech wax. haven't really used any brand other than meguiars.

 

Clay-bar + Eagle 1 Nano Wax = Secksy IMO.

 

just used meguiars today and it came out really nicely.
focused too much on my ext. and forgot about cleaning the windows..crap

 

Windows are the hardest to keep clean. They collect water spots on the outside, and plastic fume buildup on the inside. For wax, I use Meguiars. I also use it on my tablesaw and saber saw/router bases; makes the tool easier to move when cutting/shaping wood.

 

bump

 

anything meguiars is good also i prefer to use the liquid rather than paste ,seems like it doesnt have the extra mess to deal with

 

meguiars ftw

i will usually clay the car with meguiars clay bar kit, then hand buff the whole car with meguiars swirl-x, then finish it off with the tech wax.

i don't typically do that process a lot though lol. takes me about 6-7 hours at best and my ADD just kicks in after the initial clay bar lol

 

all megiuars, clay, scratch x 2.0 & gold class wax

 

This.....

 

Zaino, Zymol, 5-Star Shine, or Adam's Polish.

Meguiars is decent, but it doesn't even come close to the above mentioned products.

I'll be switching over to all Adam's Polish products over the summer. Their products make Meguiars look like dish detergant.

 

turtle wax rocks,

 

Well, the Scion paint sucks off the factory floor, and no wax will fix that, so don't bother spending $50-100 on a container of wax. Zymol isn't worth it IMO; the whole Zymol isn't a wax, it's a zyme that turns into a wax when exposed to air seems like snake oil. I avoid carnuba wax because it doesn't last long in the summer heat, messes up rubber trim and takes forever to buff off.

The new synthetic waxes are easy on, easy off, last, and look good. Go with either the Meguiars NXT, Turtle Wax ICE, or Mother's FX Synwax. They also wipe off of rubber trim without staining. A lot of people on SL seemed to like Turbowax as well, but you'll need to buy it from online.

 

I like meguiars because I think it protects better, but I got a turtle wax ice car kit for like 5 bucks at target on sale after Christmas and i love their car wash and Turtle Wax Liquid Polish. It is really easy to use and gives a great shine, also like vettereddie said it wipes of the trim pieces without leaving any marks.

 

Mother's FX synwax!!

 

i claybar my car, then use zymol wax. works great.
