what is the best kind of wax to use on my new Fx4

I would like some opinions please

 

there`s a recent thread (past couple of months or so) about what products guys use to wash and wax etc... if I was compu savvy I`d put up a link, someone will be along who can do it I`m sure....says your a new user welcome

 

I'm a huge fan of Turtle Wax ICE.

 

Mothers and Megs wax are good enough. I also like the Turtle Wax ICE psray beacuse it cn be use on plastic/rubber pieces.

 

I have tried close to 100 different waxes in my lifetime. My favorite is Collinite 845. Love the stuff!

I'm using Profection, a polymer sealant and I only need to do it at the beginning and end of the summer. The truck stays shiny and feels slick the rest of the time and the bugs wash off easily. I'm also using it on the headlight and tailights because it has UV protection.

Here's a link to a write up about it by Beechkid:

Here's one about making a cheap but very nice wash bucket, just use two 5 gal buckets with holes drilled in one:

And otherwise you can look through the Appearance and Dress Up section of this forum.

 

I haven't tried the wax but I'm using the Turtle Wax ICE soap...I really like how it feels and all the suds that it makes.

 

Ditto for me.

 

thanks for the welcome. And still trying to decide what to tr first

 

Well the wax I use is not cheap but it's the best wax I have used to date. I also am a fan of paint sealants as well (HD POXY).This wax goes on easy and doesn't leave a residue! A little bit goes a long way too.

I am too - it's easy on & easy off and doesn't leave white residue. I wax and use spray detailer weekly and have tried al national brands.
my second choice is nu finish rapid shine. ( and technically speaking nu finish is not a wax)

when it comes to waxing a car the thing that's makes the difference is:
Paint condition
Humidity
Temperature
Type of paint.

 

I used Ice on old truck for last 7 years, twice a year. beads till next wax on sides, hood and roof wear down little but still nice shine. totally outdoor truck 365 a year. This one got ICE second day I had it.

 

Another vote for this one.
