    Good carnuba wax for the new year?

    one of my friend just got into detailing and i gave him my poorboys natty`s as a hand-me down.

    this new year i want to try out a new carnuba and i have my eye on the collinite #845 carnuba wax. i heard and read that this was really good. natty`s is really good too and i am proud to give it to my friend so it can give his car a good look.

    please provide any inputs you recommend. thank you!!

    P21S is one that I have worked with and liked...same lines as Nattys for shine....can`t give you durability as I clean and wax my cars a lot...The Collinite has the durability but I found it hard to work with in particular removal

    If I`m not mistaken, the Collinite #845 is the liquid Insulator Wax.
    It is easy to use and has great durability. It looked good on my white van and a friends silver Trail Blazer, but I have not used it on a dark color.

    S100 Carnauba is also very easy to use. Looks good, very easy on and off, and doesn`t stain trim.

    I have 845, S-100, and Natty`s Orig & Blue, and Carnauba Moose Wax. By far my favorite is either one of the Nattys waxes. I know 845 gives longer durability but for what I like Nattys fills the bill.
    If you want to try something different go for a higher end product.

    If you feel you need/want to top your sealant, Troy, (Detail City Store), still had some Natty`s Red you might want to try. I think it is getting scarce so if you are even thinking about it, better grab it while you can.

    Victoria Wax Concours Wax would be another fine choice.
    I still don`t believe in grit guards.

    Chemical Guys 5050 is my new choice but Natty`s Red is definitely a good choice as well. You might want to try the new p21s 100% Carnuaba wax. Then you can give us all a write up on it.

    One that I like that never seems to get too much mention is Pinnacle Signature Series.
    I personally don`t find it very durable, but I do like the look.

    Like with everything beauty is in the eye of the beholder and it also depends on what type of look you are trying to achieve.

    I have used IW 845 and Pinnacle Souveran liquid wax ,if you want durability for sure the best of the two is IW but I really like the warm deep look that Souveran liquid provides.

    Natty`s Blue, or S-100. Both are easy to use, and affordable.
