im personally looking for something that is all around easy to use, shines and most importantly lasts the longest.



i have used zymol liquid wax, nattys blue, mequires paste (black can) and other cheap liquid waxes.



i like zymol liquid, chemical free and smells great, easy to use but it just doesnt last long enough for me.



nattys blue wasnt bad, it was just wayyy to hard for me to remove.



i was going to try autoglym hd but it seems like its not worth the money

Meg`s #26 is a great value. Looking forward to Ultimate Paste Wax. Been very happy with MUQW.

Easy to use, shine and most importantly lasts the longest? Take a good look at Collinite`s Liquid Insulator Wax (No. 845)! Chances are you can purchase 4 bottles for your $60 price limit and with those criteria, you`ll not be disappointed.

Anything by Collinite (476S, 845, 915).



FK1000P (OK, it`s really a sealant but they call it a "synthetic wax").



But yeah, the simple answer is 845. You can use it on both paint and exterior plastic trim, and I even use it on exterior rubber. It`s one of those products that I believe everybody oughta at least try even if it doesn`t become a fave.

Another vote for 845IW. Looks like everything you have tried is short on the durability list. AG HD is great too, its a steal at $20.

I`m going to be ordering that soon along with FK1000P to try them out. I`ve been a KSG/P21S user most my detailing career and more recently threw BFWD into the mix, but never experimented too much with tons of sealants/waxes. These two keep being mentioned though, especially the Collinite 845, so I`ll just HAVE to give them a try.

High marks for ease of use, appearance, and economy; OCW.

I`ll be interested to hear what you think, especially given the products you`re already familiar with.



One thing I still love about KSG is how it provides such a thick, tough coating when you layer it thickly enough; nothing else I`ve ever used has been able to resist marring the way 6+ layers of KSG can, not that doing six coats of it is always feasible by a long shot! And KSG doesn`t shed dirt anything like FK1000P, not even close IMO.

kind of curious to see how badly (if they do) the new meg`s waxes flop/fair

the paste is out--but with the weather and well..my experience with their NXT 2.0, not entirely sure if i want to be the first to test it out just yet...

I say 845 is the best value also.

i might have to try out the collinite.



i heard it has a harsh smell, thats why i ike the zymol, it seems like its petroluem free.

Collonite, FK1000P, Blackfire Wet Diamond come to mind.



If you want a pure carnuba based try Autoglym HD.

checked out AG HD at pep boys for 40, smelled good, i assume caranuba is chemical free?



how does it match up to p21s or CG 50/50?
