Best Wax without Prep

Prime Strong comes to mind.



Very good choice if you want some light abrasive polishing along with some protection. If you just want some chemical cleaning but even better protection, Prime Acrylic is a good choice. Hard to go wrong with the Werkstat line.
 
Yeah it is hard to give a nice finish with just a wash and wax.



I was thinking of just using a glaze such as the CG EZ Glaze and then top with Zaino or something.



It could help fill the swirls but make the paint look good, what do you guys think?
 
If the client does not want to pay for the correct prep,apply a spray was. Which is basically a better quick detailer and wash. Example like a Showroom Shine Spray! Jax Wax Showroom Shine Spray. Can be used wet or dry!
 
I too have been looking for something like this for customers who just want to make their cars look better, but don't want to shell out for a proper w&w. I think the best route would be a glaze cut with some carnuba. I'm sure there are already glazes that have some sealing properties.

I've read that Zaino doesn't work well over glazes.



CK's Vanilla Moose would be a good choice, I think. Cleans, fills and protects a bit. Good for that initial "wow" factor, but not a long lasting fix, so they'll need to come back again and again, or get it done right.
 
Years ago I used 3M light cut cleaner wax for such occasions, really nice on red. Do a panel and wipe.



In fact I am going to buy some today just so I have some on hand.

The more aggressive 3M cleaner waxes never get much attention here, not like somewhat similar stuff from Meguiar's.



I for one do *not* consider "cleaner wax" to be a categorically bad thing.
