  • wax

    so i have never waxed a car before, but i recently got it painted, and i want to take REAL good care of it. so i thought i would start out really simple, with a spray on wax. you kno the ones where you just spray on after you rinse and wipe off. i figure thats pretty easy i can't mess that up to easily. you guys have any tips for me? or could u recommend a brand to use? keep in mind i'm just running out to auto zone today to get it. any tips would be great. thanks!

                  Get zaino before you mess up your car with anything else.. trust me.. lol

                  I have been through tons of waxes.. Zaino is by far the best.. it's a whole system not just wax.

                    spray on wax is garbage

                      or...you could do it you self and if you got all the stuff it costs $0
                      Just Try some different types of wax and use what you like.

                        I have yet to find a wax that I really like over another one. I've tried just about everything they sell in the average autoparts store, so Zaino is next on my list.

                          I found that Meguires NXT Tech Wax seems to wash off after only a few car washes.

                          I am going to back to old faithful - Meguires Gold Class Wax.

                            Turtle Wax gets my vote. Meguairs does a good job, but it's an easy wax on, hard when waxing off. Also, wait a month or two after having it painted before putting wax on the car. Buddy of mine got his car painted, put wax on it 2 weeks later and the new paint started coming off. Luckily he had a 10k mile warranty on it.

                              Ice spray one wax works good for me.
