Default Megs White Wax

Looking for a wax that will make the Arctic White finish "pop." In the past I have used Rejex and NXT. Was curious if anyone has used the Meguairs White Wax or has any other suggestions, thanks.

I don't believe in waxes for lighter or darker colors. If the finish is properly polished, a white car should just about blind you when in bright sunlight.

That said, I use Rejex on my white cars because it lasts a long time, but other types of waxes do seem to have more depth or shine than Rejex. Rejex looks good enough on the lighter colors, but any of the consumer waxes like NXT, Mothers Synwax, Megs ultimate paste wax will look better. I haven't tried it yet, but maybe over layer the wax over the sealant.

Time to start looking at a "coating" versus a sealant or wax IMO:

Good advice. I did my CRM '08 with a Duragloss coating, and the results are great. Next, I'm trying the DP coating on my '89 TTA.

First of all great choice on your color. I have an Arctic White and in the beginning I strip washed, IRON X, clayed , polish then wiped down with either IP or eraser.. You have to prep your car to get the results. After that seal, wax, or use a coating.

My secret is Optimum Spray Enhancer after washing. I use it when wiping off my car.

GOOD LUCK !!!!!

Of course this is from a novice who has OCD with his cars
