Gold Class has light cleaners in it so it really isn't directly comparible to S100. If I was going to go with a Meguiars product that is very similar, it would be #16 Pro Paste. Similar look, similar ease of use and more durable. Probably harder to find though.

Yeah gold class looks pretty good but it dusts and stains trim like crazy. S100 is a nice wax, easy on easy off and doesn't stain trim. I've been using s100 SEC and s100 carnuba for some time now and finnaly decided to use a sealant for better durability. If the car is your daily driver you may want to consider a sealant as well.

Johnson's Paste Wax.

Actually, I have no opinion on S100 as I never felt the need to try it. I have always gotten outstanding results with the Meguiars products I've used (lately NXT and #16).

Scottwax, #16 can be picked up at my local AutoZone, Advance Auto PArts, and O'Reilley's (which has a really large Meguiars selection for a chain auto store).

S100 was SUPER EASY to use and I really like that, BUT #16 is my "other vote" for the poll
(I smoke a few cigars so I can't fully appreciate the Crayon smell, but there's nothing wrong with my eyes! #16 is outlasting the S100.)

#16 ROCKS ! ! !

I have used P21S/S100 for a long time now. Since I have used #16, it really shows itself as a great carnauba in todays world of waxes and sealants. Plus, #16 is really more wet and liquid looking and lasts longer.

Cheers,
