Wax Job

what kind of wax are you using or do you suggest? I am going to wash and wax before i take my car off the road for winter. I do plan on using the clay bar before waxing though.

Zymol. Pain in the *** to apply, but if done right and you take your time...the finish is awesome. Glad I live in Texas, none of this lock'in her up for the winter for me!!

Yeah I agree...I went to Zaino and was absolutely amazed...literally no other polish I have used comes close.

I do suggest reading what they have to say on the website. Normally I am not one to read the "hype" and listen but I had a few extra bucks and thought I would try it out. I ended up starting from square one and claying my car...an absolute must...and then using two different kinds of polish they had (one for swirl marks and the other for clear coats). The results were amazing AND aside from the claying...very easy to do.

Most of the name brands will be fine. Waxes are like motor oil, all of them claim to be "the best".
Name brand marketing, brand loyalty, and ease of availability all factor in here.
