Of the three Chemical Guy's three paste waxes...Pete's 53, 50/50, and Hardcore XXX, what is the difference, and which is the best? Is one better for an application than another? What's the difference?
 
I have only used Pete's 53 from them and I stopped using it after 3 different applications. The wax for some reason is not to my liking. Im sure many others will chime in about the other waxes. Do some searches as well. They have been discussed quite a few times, at least 50/50 and Pete's 53

I *love* 50/50. XXX Paste is a step down, but not a bad wax in its own right. I can't comment on Pete's 53, but if you're looking to unload it cheap, let me know Chris.



I was thinking about it. Im just so pressed for time these days I wonder if I can make it to the post office! Otherwise its just sitting on my shelf right now collecting dust.
 
I picked up Pete's 53 to try out and add to my collection. I've tested it out a few times and haven't been impressed. I haven't given up hope on it as some waxes work better on different finishes. I felt it lacked wetness. I haven't tried the other 2 waxes. Out of my three newest additions DPMaxWax, Natty's Red and Pete's 53, I've only been impressed with the DPMaxWax.

If you read up in the CG website, the one main difference between all the waxes are carnauba content. Pete's 53 has 53% white by volume compared to XXX which only has 47% if I'm not mistaken. I don't know if that matters to you. :)
