Either Mother's, Meguiar's, CM, or Sonus will be fine.

is Black Magic, Armor All and Eagle One are them goods?

I see some ArmorAll Car wash including wax, is that mean you don't have to wax your car again after washing your car with ArmorAll Car Wash & Wax.

car wash w/ wax is just car shampoo w/ wax effect...but its not the same as actually waxing ur car

Yeah, not even close, it's a gimmick.

On my old vehicles I used the colour match wax by turtle wax, it really hides scratches well if you have them. I also use a 10 or 12" orbital polisher and it saves a lot of time on the process (make sure the pad is contacting the car's surface before you turn it on! It goes everywhere otherwise)

TW Ice Paste

I normally rinse and dry my car again after waxing...read a few places this sets the wax (if you can understand/believe it). I live in the middle of Amish land....lots of farm land and dust. Without a rinse after waxing, many waxes act as dust magnets....I tried TW Ice Paste last night, without a final rinse, and today the winds came up and my little Black Betty looks like it was stored in a dirt floor shed for months, even the outer edges of the windows are dirt wherever the microfiber cloth touched. I'll use the TW Ice Paste once more with a rinse to see how it reacts....but I really got to say it's the worst dust magnet I've used in over 40 years!

I agree with the Meguire's Gold, which I apply every 3-4 months. Works well and my car always cleans up well. Great product!

i tried out Black Magic Liquid Wax today, and FUck it, i'm not gonna use that thing again. Take forever to clean the wax, and them wax still on my car. Beware of Black Magic Liquid Wax.

3M and Ice, plus Meguire is the best i used so far.

Hi,

I use Meguires NXT paste.... takes effort to put on and the shine is pretty good.
Problem is, it is dusty when wiped off. Do not polish in the sun or you will get streaks.

Seems to last a while especially if used with a wash and wax car wash. I used Formula 1 wash and wax and it give great results.

Thanks
