I need some good wax recommendations from places like Autozone...
 
I'm having my car clay barred tomorrow and I need some suggestions for good wax that can be bought locally from places like Autozone or Advanced Discount Auto Parts.

I'm use to using Zaino on my previous cars but I heard local places have very good waxes now in days.

any suggestions will be appreciated.

Meguiars NXT Gen II is a very good protectant that has similar properties to Zaino. Every friend I've told about it likes it. It is very easy to remove, and available at AutoZone.

Meguiars NXT Gen II is really good!!

I use either Mequiar's Cleaner wax or their Gold Class wax depending on what I need done. I also use Meguiar's claybar kit with a 1:2 mix of meguiar's gold class shampoo and water as lube for the clay bar. Makes my car look brand new everytime.

NXT would be your OTC choice...

Megs profeshional(MirrorGlaze) Hi-tech yellow wax #26,carnauba.
Or like others have said, NXT tech wax, which is a sealant.

NXT has some fillers in it to mask light swirls(suposedly)

I also just bought some turtle wax Ice. Haven't tried it yet but doesn't leave residue from my understanding.

Guys that use the Meguires...does it come off easily?

I know for a fact that the megs Mirror Glaze #26 does and looks awsome!
And it's also a profeshional line product. But being a carnauba, you'll haft to apply more often than the NXT.

I like any of the products offered by Meguires and Mothers. :thumbsup:

Meguiars products in general. I like the Ultimate line, or NXT.

thanks for all the suggestions. I bought a bottle of the NXT stuff. we are doing the whole clay bar treatment tomorrow.

drtwo 02-03-2010 08:53 AM

tell me how the nxt goes on and comes off. I'm looking to somehow compare it to Turtle wax ice!

rmpackers 02-03-2010 09:16 AM

I use the Turtle Wax Ice and have really good results, but geez seems like you really have to rub to get it off.

The NXT is really easy to remove and doesn't leave residue. It's almost as easy to remove as Zaino. I've used their car cleaner wax before, and it leaves a lot of residue, but it is a product that is over 25 years old.
