If any of you are looking for a wax to keep your xB clean, let me suggest Tropicare. Click Here I suggest the basic kit to get started

Let me know what you think

 

shiny.

 

BEUTIFUL. Excelent job. Now I have a question, anser this right and im sold, how many coats did you do?

 

On that picture, its the first wax it ever got..

Wash with Tropicare Car Wash
1 Coat scratch remover (not necessary, but for good measure on first wax)
1 Coat Wax.

Thats it.. It was done with all microfiber towels. Thats where the key is.. You HAVE to use microfiber. But lucky, the basic kit comes with all of the MF stuff.. Just one suggestion, order an extra towel for drying the car.

Best stuff in the world.. And its smells GREAT

 

where'd you purchase the wax from?

 

www.tropi-care.com

 

Very nice. I use Zaino.

Anybody used both? Can you tell us how they stack up against each other?

 

I've used Zaino also. Results wise, they are very similar. But there are two pros for Tropi-care

1. Comes off REALLY easily. It took almost no effort at all to take off the wax
2. A bit cheaper
3. Longer durability. From my experience, the shine of tropi-care lasted through several more washes than zaino
4. Great customer service

Both are great products. But, if it was down to the wire, I would choose Tropi-care for the above reasons. If you have pleanty of Zaino left, I wouldnt switch until you are all done with it

 

Thanks for the feedback!
I have a lot of Zaino left. When I run out I may have to try Tropi-care. Any others out there want to comment?

 

I drive a WS6 TransAm.. http://www.ls2.com/forums/forumdispl...?s=&forumid=54 if you go to that forum, thats were I got info on tropicare.. Alot of those people have switch from zaino to TC and there is some info and opinions on there.

 

i think that blue XB is SEXY. one question ive had a white car and it was fairly easy to keep clean is it hard to keep a blue car clean???

 

For me, i've become immune to it.. My other car is a black transam WS6 and its a pain in the butt.. I love darker colors but you have to put in the time to keep it clean. They seem to attract dust.

To answer your question, it is harder. Not impossible, but harder. You have to make time to clean it atleast once a week. Im dreading the winter time

 

Wow, and I am just using that new turtle wax. The complaint I have with all the waxes is that they only last a short while, what kind of life are you getting on these waxes? And what kind of prices are we talking for the wax?

I have a BOP, and I use the little "touchless wash" down the street OFTEN, its 8bucks and gets all those bugs off.

 

Someone people have said they have only applied once a season. Some people have said they applied twice a year. It differs really..I'm not sure how long it will last for me, but its already outlasted Zaino (which Im sure will outlast Turtle Wax).

 

did you just wax it or did you use a cleaner wax or polish along with the wax?

 

Swirl Cutter and TC3 Car Polish. Thats it..

 

Great job. I use Meg. NXT, works and smells great. Got plenty of waxing left in the bottle, so I'll be using this for awhile.
