Question Recommend Wax Products?

There's probably a thread already out there on this, but I don't see the search feature anymore.

What's a good wax these days? Why do you like your favoriate wax?

check out zainostore.com They have a 1 step wax that works well and is stupid easy to apply. Been using their stuff for a couple years now with good results.

I used to detail cars, so I've tried all kinds of different brands, and styles..I seem to like Mothers Cleaner with Carnuba Wax, Mequiars makes something similar..they may be old school, but they seem to give the best shine, and last the longest..you can't beat a good carnuba based wax. Plus, these two waxes are fairly inexpensive and available at Walmart

Default It is an Old Thread:

But who cares?
For car polishing products there is none better than this:
http://www.autogeek.net/klasse.html?...FY2b7QodvHMGmw
You can work your **** to the bone and get something equal, but not better.
In addition to all that about one fluid ounce of Klasse will do a whole car...
...a little goes a long, long, long way. Read the Klasse application guide.

Thanks guys! I figured that I'd get some personal preferences and I appreciate the feedback. Just one more twist, how do these hold up to harsh Steeler Country winters (salt and such)?
Thanks,
Dave
