Default Favorite wax

So whats everyones favorite wax. I have used a good amount of wax. Ive used mothers (which I love), meguires gold plus (I think thats what its called), surf city garage black edge and now jax wax cherry wax. mothers I used for a while and no complaints there. meguires was kinda tough to remove. surf city garage was easy to remove and could be done in the sun. Jax wax cherry wax is extremely easy to remove and the cherry wax Im told is harder to remove than their liquid carnuba wax. Gives a deep shine. I love it and it smells good too. So everyone what wax gives your car the best shine. Or which is your favorite to use.

I have been pretty partial to the Meguiar's Ultimate Liquid wax as of late. Have a little bit of the Cherry Wax left over, so did not use it if I cannot finish the whole car with it. Perhaps will place another order with JAX WAX soon...

BBM, I looked at the wax on your list, the top rated one is $150 a container and funny enough it is out of stock everywhere I looked for it online... WOW

I'm very pleased with the result using Megs products particularly the NXT wax.

I've been a huge fan of Meguiar's for decades, but I have moved on to longer lasting products for protection. I always got a spectacular finish with the Meguiar's line, but the protection simply does not last. A couple of washes and it's gone...

Last summer, I switched to Griot's One Step Sealant and have been very pleased. I did a full application with my Porter DA buffer late last summer. I am just now (today) doing another application as the protection has officially worn off...after a full winter and dozens of automatic washes.

Just my recent experience...I still use Meguiar's ScratchX 2.0 and Ultimate Compound for defect removal...When used together, the resulting finish gets compliments all the time.

OK now depending on weather does that determine how often you wax? I used to wax once every 6 months. Now espeically in the summer months I wax at least once a month. I need the protection on my black car when it hits 110+ this summer
