Re: What kind of car wax do you perfer for hand waxes? (LT1CORVETTE)
Didn't want to add this as a new catagory cuz it'd probably stay with 1 vote, but.. I've never used anything better than "La Cera Amarilla" - see it at http://www.productioncarcare.com/ Item # 16b in the Catalog under "More Waxes". This stuff is incredible, and I've used most of the well known waxes before.. Constant questions on how I got that finish on my car - is unbelievable on Black... Carnuba Wax with Teflon. Won't use anything else from now on.. I got a Quart bottle first of last year and as much as I wax that puppy, still have a half bottle left..

With Turtle Wax, Lisa can get a shine that hurts your eyes from the sun reflection. Click the link below for an example.

With a little "wax on, wax off" elbow grease, a single coat of 3M Perfect-It provides a slicker feeling to the touch and a shinier finish than 3 coats of that 4-step Zaino which I used to use, plus it seems to last at least as long too, between spray on touch up sessions.

I have a difficult time with believing that someone who thinks there is 4 steps to Zaino has ever actually used Zaino. Unless you mean wash the car, dry the car, apply the polish and remove the polish. Sounds like any other product to me, except that Zaino goes on and comes off so easy and is durable, stacks, protects and is 99% optically clear.

I have been using Mequiars (tan bottled line) with good results. I'm thinking of trying Pinnacle Souveran next :cheers:
