Cheap products (specifically, LSPs)?
Maybe I'm just not looking in the right places, but I was kind of curious as to what the cheapest Autopia-approved (more or less) product is and where it can be bought. I've got lots of LSPs laying around as it is - Klasse twins, NXT, P21S, Wolfgang's sealant (which I used today after DACPing a few panels I managed to royally screw up washing somehow), Collinite's 845IW, #26, probably a couple of others I'm forgetting - but I was just wondering what the less expensive goodies are.
After using (and reminding myself why I like) the Wolfgang sealant, I checked the price to see it go for $23/bottle, which is what made me wonder. |

As for Autopia approved,the one that first came to mind is on your list, Collinite 845IW. It's about $11 at Advance Auto Parts stores that have a boating section around here.

Hrm. Natty's blue is pretty cheap, I think ~$14usd. I got some NXT liquid for $9.99 CAD on sale, but I guess that doesn't count.

S100.
Locally available (at any Harley Davidson retailer) and priced fair. Plus you won't have to worry about shipping charges since you buy it local. Probably among the top paste waxes I own.
Of course any of the Poorboy's sealants/waxes are great too. Also, the Optimum Spray Wax is incredible stuff. If you buy it by the gallon for $29 (TOL) it will last you forever. Of course you could buy the 16oz bottle for half that, but obviously it is a much better deal to just get the gallon.
NXT is not a product I would consider on the Autopian level IMO. It is probably one of the better everyday consumer products out there, but it still lacks what I consider to be truly Autopian worthy. I would rather use Mother's Reflections.

When you consider how long they last, I think the Collinite waxes are very inexpensive.
