IanMan Report post Posted August 19, 2018 I’ll add you to a detailers group on FB. There you can ask for info from some of the country’s best detailers. Me personally, I prefer Sonax products. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenny94945 Report post Posted August 19, 2018 Allan asks a question similar to what is the best motor oil. Seems to be a never ending debate with personal preferences. What is most popular these days? From what I see on forums... Adams. Zaino used to be popular, some have used Griots Garage for many years. I'd like to add that wax for a black car is truly the ultimate answer to Allan's question. Prep -It's all in the prep (wash, clay, machine polish) to achieve the "what is best" (Dry the car with a "leaf" blower, apply products with foam applicators, buff off with high quality micro fiber towels.) Glaze - to fill in mirco defects. Wax - Synthetic lasts longer (best life?) over Carnauba (best reflection?) Liquid vs paste (ease of application?) Wax again - to cover any missed areas and complete your labor/number of wax coats diminishing return. Glaze again - to add two day lasting oils for the ultimate "pop" of shine. Question is about wax not ceramic coatings or other coatings. Perhaps ease of purchasing the product could be a consideration as to which wax is best. FWIW I like Meguires….Glaze # 7, Carnauba paste wax over Wax # 26 and their plastic polishes & plastic cleaners Many Walmarts, NAPAs, Pep Boys stock Meguires. I truly think that most product brands are equal and any choice is a wax winner. Again for shine it is all in the prep. Depth vs reflection, product life, ease of application and cost perhaps being deciding factors. I am glad, "What is the best beer?" was not the original question Black cars are so fun waxing to that ultimate reflective shine and "pop".

Scotty Report post Posted August 20, 2018 Best thing of ever done is use ceramic pro on the entire car. Then I typically just use warm water and a very mild detergent to wash the cars. There’s not much else you can do once the car is ceramic coated. No waxing, no polishing and keeps the finish perfect for a really long time. You almost can’t screw it up.

DarrinB Report post Posted August 28, 2018 Allan, best bet is a ceramic coating. If you don't want to do that I recommend Zaino. Chemical guys is just a bunch of marketing, their actual product is trash. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
