Hi,
I was just wondering what product everyone waxs their car with. I usually use turtle wax but just picked up some Mother's California gold. Does anyone find one particular brand better.
Thanks

I just use the Mequires Cleaner Wax. Goes on easy and more importantly, comes off easy.
I used to use Gliptone Wet-Sheen (something like that) but I can't find it locally anymore.

No long term results on this, but I just cleaned and shined a dull, chalky green 1973 142e, and never (NEVER) had such good results with such little effort.

The dead green paint quickly and easily transferred to the old toweling, requiring frequent changes. And it buffed up immediately (or after a short wait) with minimal work and a clean towel.

This miracle product? A 1-pound can of Johnson's Paste Wax.
