    Default Best value for money WAX

    I've been using Meguiars Gold Class liquid wax for a while now

    It's easy to apply and remove....but it does not last long

    What is a good value for money wax that will be easy to apply and buff out and last longer than a few washes ?

    I probably don't wanna spend over $100 on it though

    Looking at the CCP web site it appears that Dodo Juice Supernatural Hybrid would be perfect for what I need

    Anyone here used it ?

    Xonar,

    Supernatural Hybrid is a whole different type of wax altogether than Mothers/Meguiars waxes (Dodo juice waxes in general too).

    They are 'Premium Waxes'. Supernatural itself is all carnauba where Hybrid is synthetic and carnauba combined to give a bit more durability/longevity out of it. Say 4/5 months on a daily driver.

    Do you want something that lasts longer or you want more depth? Colour of the car, what car?

    My focus is on longevity...Not too fussed about the depth of colour. It's a daily driver doing short trips, garaged at home and work. Apart from minor swirl marks the paint is still immaculate.

    Meguiars is not really doing what I need as it feels like it's gone within a month and paint looses that smooth to touch feel

    Sounds good, and it's reasonably priced.
    Will do some more research and then decide which direction to take

    Thanks for your advice

    I used the Duragloss pack with Fast Clean and Shine in January this year, with Fast Clean and Shine after every wash. Silver 08 VE still looks great and will do it again in January just for the protection, the shine is still great.

    Tip, on the first application do 2 coats of the 105 polish about 12 hours apart.

    Sorry, I thought is was relevant to your topic as it may indeed be a good value for money solution, but I don't personally know much about it. I'll pull my head in...

    This Link Here on "How To Clay" should give you a bit of help
    - Basically removes any contaminants that adhere onto the paint and clean the paint up leaving it smooth as glass.

    If you like meguiars, they have a couple of new products. Ultimate pre wax glaze & ultimate liquid wax. Use together they give exceptional results. I used them for the first time about 4 months ago and the water is still running off like the day I first did it and my car gets covered in diesel fall out and dust all day when it's parked at work.
