You're asking for a big big discussion. I say, go to the rejex site and look at it. It's supposedly wipe on and buff off without a big deal. http://www.corrosionx.com/rejex.html

So is zaino. zaino however has many possible step.http://www.zainostore.com/

Default Adams?

What is the conventional wisdom on Adam's Buttery Wax product relative to the others?

Zaino is number 1 and I speak from experience. Zaino is not a wax by the way. Check out their website, www.zainostore.com

I believe Rejex and Zaino are both polymer's and not traditional paste waxes. I like my car to look nice but I'm not **** about it...I'm not one to enter my car in beauty pageants.

I used to use Maguiar's NXT and I wasn't dissatisfied with it. After reading so many rave reviews from an almost fanatical customer base, I tried Zaino some time back. I honestly feel Zaino is a superior product.

If you follow directions precisely, the initial Zaino preparation process is somewhat laborious but, proper preparation sets the foundation for a great looking finish. Subsequent applications are no more difficult to apply than conventional paste wax.

I'm quite pleased with Zaino.

Where are those rankings? Is it at http://www.whatwaxisbest.com
or is it at www.worldwaxrankings.com

There is no best, anybody tell you different they are full of it. I used only Zaino on my 2002 Z06, it was fantastic and smelled pretty too. I use Mothers on my C6 and it is fantastic...........
I use Maguires on my 69 Camaro and it is fantastic...............
Do you get the picture??? There will be guys that come on here and say Zaino is the only one, it is the best, etc. etc. Take it with a grain of Internet Corvetteforum bandwagon salt. The major brands all work well.

Why when someone asks for a recommendation, everyone thinks they have to be politically correct and offer up 4-5 choices? He asked for a recommendation and mine is Zaino! And you can take that to the bank with no salt wagon in tow!
