Im looking to try something new. But im still lost between all the different waxes and sealents out there. Im looking at The Twins, P21S, Pinnacle, Wolfgang, Clearkote, Poorboys, Zaino, Blackfire....Im lost on what i should try . really its not that smart to buy all of them but some guidence might help...Im currently using some NXT but im looking for an upgrade. But as I said. Im so Lost. Can someone give me some guidence. Or maybe their favorite one(s)
 
Well i can only give you feed back on what i have used.



Clear kote Moose wax. Awesome product.

S100 (p21s) Awesome Product.



I can tell you that both products work great. I use both on every color car. (hmm, did i just tell someone what i use)



Moose wax has the edge because you can use it in direct sunlight, so if you are detailing outside, that is the one i would pick.



But i would use a good glaze before applying any of the above. The products above will really stand out and enhance the paint with a good paint cleaning done first.
 
I second the motion on S100 paste wax. Since you live in a pretty decent-sized city, you can probably find a Harley dealership near you that carries it, which saves having to do mail order if you're just looking to experiment. The same place you find S100 wax may also carry S100 Shine Enhancing Cleanser (SEC), which is a nice light polish/glaze. $15 for the wax, $9 for the SEC, so not too hard on the wallet either.

You need to focus most on your prep work, that's what you'll get the most look out of.



I use Zaino and S100. and they both have great looks and are easy to use.
 
What are you driving, what color is it, and what characteristics are you looking for (easy use, deep color, shine, durability...)? This may point all of us Soapboxers in the right direction:D
 
Some of us use both!

I use Zaino as a protective base, topped with whatever paste wax I'm in the mood for. Meg's #26 really deepens the colour, #16 just shines like crazy (still inproving depth), can't wait to try S100 this summer.
 
If you're still lost between products as different as Zaino and S100, I think you should take a closer look at the two, as they offer very different qualities. You should look at these differences and see which ones matter to you.



Durability? Ease of use? Intended use? (You can't use glaze under Z.) Cost? Steps involved, etc etc?



Just my $0.02 and I hope it helps....
