I see lots of wax and polish brands out there, but which ones work the best? I haven't heard anything that really convinces me that a certain brand is the best, so i'm wondering what you guys think is the best stuff. A little off topic, i've heard of clay barring, but what is it?

I use Zymol (sp) blue for a cleaner wax. On top of that Colinite fleet wax. In studies the colinite out lasted all others exelent shine with Zymol 1 month one of the best over anything you see on the shelf. 6 months later Colinite still was rated excelent thats on a boat.Scars are tatoos of the fearless -
Mothers also makes good stuff.
Claybar is an abrasive you use to get spots out of the paint. Its literally a bar of clay you rub on the paint, then polish afterward with a standard polish. You can do the whole car with it, it smooths the clearcoat or finish out so it shines better. Its a similar concept to using rubbing compound but its somewhat less abrasive. Do too much of it and you'll take the paint off tho.Last edited by gadget73; 08-26-2006, 11:05 PM.86 Lincoln Town Car (Galactica).

That is like asking what oil is best. I personally use Meguiars NTX for now but I have heard a shit ton of good things about Natty's blue and Zaino. I am going to get some when I am out of NTX.2000 Mustang GT "Blondie", 2000 CVPI "Sargent Crusty"Comment

It's also greatly dependant on your current paint. If you paint is old and fading, you want a more aggresive cleaner wax. If you have good paint as it is, and just mainly wish to preserve or just spiffy it up, then you want a more some sort of rub on liquid compound.

Hi Guys
Bilt-Hamber Auto-Balm is the king of all polishes, man just look at the shine it gives, I had to use a 75% tint on the camera lens just to get that picture!
