Waxing: What do you use?

[Bu11dogg2]

Me?

First I start with Mother's California Gold Clay bar.
this is a pain in the butt, but if you want to get a good wax you have to use this-$20.00

next I use Meguiars Mirror Glaze, Professional Show car glaze #7.
this is a pre wax and helps your wax hold tighter. $10.00

next, after letting the show car glaze set for 24 hours, I use Meguiars Mirror Glaze Professional HI_TECH Yellow Wax #26

this wax is great. Goes on clean and dries quickly. once dry it comes off pretty easy and leaves a deep wet shine.

well, I cant forget about my tires... if the the rest of my car is shining, I might as well make the rubber shine. So I use this, and let me tell you, I LOVE IT!!
Its so easy to use and is mess free.

Its called the "black Magic tire Wet Express" It has a foam applicator and you just squeeze the sides, then rub it on the tire.

I'm gonna take OCDetails advice and try the S100 that you can get a Harley Davidson dealer ship next. Right now I have 4 open bottles of wax and I have been pretty happy with each one. But.... if this S100 is as good as he says it is...

I also want to try one these sealants I hear so much about.

I guess you could say I'm a little OCD too.
What do you use/recommend?

I use Meguire's and Mother's- always top off with 2 coats of Mother's California Gold Carnauba. Begin by claying once a year, do the Meguire's, then the Mothers'- 4 coats total- and once more before winter.

I just use juices & berries

I am a big fan of Blitz Wax, no abrasives or cleaners used and it applies and removes extremely well. Beautiful shine on my black LGT. P21S paste wax is also very good consisting of nothing but a perfect balance of carnuba and beeswax. Not quite as easy to remove as Blitz Wax but still a perfect finish

I tell ya... that black magic applicator is awesome!!

[MIKEBRAVO]

Meguire's and Mother's ftw. Does the brand of clay bar make a difference or just the grit?

[gargleblaster]

Zaino all the way, baby! Claybar and then 2-3 coats of polish does it for the entire year.

I'm just sticking to my NXT, at least till it runs out.

[izzodesh]

[jedimaster]

I'm doing mine today-I have Klasse all in one, which will be followed by Meguire's Gold Class, then two coats of Mother's. All after the claybar, of course.:D

[Bu11dogg2]

looks great!

[jedimaster]

Thanks- it's hard for the camera to capture how good it came out- the car really didn't look this nice ever. I think I've found the perfect waxing combo.

[daillest08]

i use zymol and boat wax. they both work excellent on dark colors. they both take a lil time but work.
