Favorite Wax

[dnjones161]

It seems to me that most SXS guys are car guys as well so I want to poll the audience here:

What's your favorite car wax/sealer/automotive finish?

I swear by "Liquid Glass". It's priced like liquid gold, but it's easy on/easy off and there is nothing that I've found to date that shines up my dark vehicles quite like it.

In between waxes, I have realized great results from SC1, https://www.amazon.com/s/?tag=sxsweb24-20

Interesting. These newer spray on products are kind of what I was hoping to hear about. I've seen several in a bottle, never one in a pressurized can like that. Looks much easier than waxing, but I never like to try something just based on Amazon reviews if I can avoided it- especially on my cars!

I always used Meguiers carnuba. I switched a while back and tried some others but came back. I know it's old school but it's theraputic to hand apply and hand buff wax on my truck.

With saying that, I'm open to trying something new. Black vehicles are so hard to look nice and I don't have the time to claybar my truck every few months!

I like Zaino products. The Z6 for daily use, and the Z8 when I really want my Mustang to look great. My dark blue paint looks a mile deep.

I'd be happy to let you guys wash my vehicles. As of now, my favorite is whatever comes out of the jet at the local car wash.

Please tell me you don't take your car through a brushed car wash

My favorite is wax off!

I have used it for years and you can literally make a side by side (plastic, rubber, etc.) look like a new machine. I suspect car dealers use something very similar to detail because it will put a shine on....

My favorite is the Brazilian Wax.

I've been reading about some of the ceramic treatments. I watch a video of one of the rock bouncer guys spraying the mud off his suspension that had been treated. It was pretty crazy how it all just sprayed and ran right off with a water hose and looked brand new without any wiping.

I'm gonna have to check this out. My dad runs a used car dealership and we will use some of their "blue tire shine" on ATV plastics to make them look new. No idea what's in it though- comes in a very generic blue 25 gallon jug.

You gotta watch those used car dealers: they know all the tricks!

That is all I use on my motorcycles as I don't like to wash them with water. Smells awesome too. Real good stuff.

My hood and fenders are LineX'ed so I don't have much to wax and the LineX prevents scratches.

You use this on your cars? I’ve used it on my sxs and it definitely shines it up but I would think twice about using it on my painted car.

Liquid Glass user here too. Love the stuff but it must have a lot of gold in it for what they charge!
Most durable, long lasting and easiest application that I have found.

I'm also one of those that believes that the one thing that Henry Ford got right was when he said...….

"You can have any color that you want..... as long as it is BLACK!"

It really has gone through the roof in the last 5 years. I think I paid nearly 30 dollars for a bottle last time.

Black is a bear to keep clean, but when its right, there isn't a prettier color.

Are you talking a bout on the 500 or on your car/truck?

If its the Pioneer I have to ask how much that set you back? I think that would be super cool looking. I love a jeep that's Line-X when someone does it right.
