Hello Folks
Just wondering what everybody out there is using for wax? I have a friend working at a detail shop that was giving me an awesome deal on the 3M Perfect~it Show Car Wax...but they no longer carry that product:( . I'm looking for something around $15 a can, and preferrably paste wax.....I like it better. I've seen the Mothers Gold products but have always avoided it thinking its a multi~step process....dunno? Any thoughts? Whats everybody using?

I use Finish First. It is a synthetic wax that remains easy to buff off even if you let it cure for over a day. Some users of the product let their cars cure over the entire winter and buff it off in the spring. After a few layers of this stuff, with each layer curing for 24+ hours, the gloss is amazing.

IMO nothing looks better than a multi-step process using high quality products like Meguiars.. IE: clay bar, cleaner wax, sealer n' glaze and then a couple of coats of good quality wax.. I have a hand buffer so it's not nearly as bad as it sounds.

My 10 year old faded paint comes back looking amazing. When waxing I always say: no pain, no gain!

I recomend 2 products. The first one is a small private company called Cherry wet wax. The other is ZainoBros.com. There wax is the best in the buisness. Here is a example on a Harley F-150

This is a reflection off the paint.

Where's this stuff available locally and how much does it go for?
