detailing

Can someone tell me the best wax, and/or detailing kit available for vettes? I am certain this comes up all of the time, but being fairly new
I was attempting to see what everyone recommends.

Everyone has their favorites so you're going to get lots of opinions and you'll still have to chose. It's your car and your labor/money involved. It's like asking which is the best header, best intake, best tire, best year.
"Professionals" have their favorites, but keep in mind their experience level, equipment, etc.
There's ZAINO (my Corvette favorite), ADAM'S, PINNACLE and MEGUIAR'S (my daily drivers favorite) is still a favorite of many.
Your best bet might be to go to the Detailing forum (main menu page towards the bottom) and ask there...and/or make a choice and try it.

The detail forum is a great resource. I'm a big fan of Adam's stuff, btw... easy to use and great results.

Oh, and welcome!

I use a new wax that no else has ever used, it's brand new and has a real funny name, it's called 'El Searche Functionelle'.

You've probably never used it, but that's okay, no one else ever has either, I've used it two times now and it works great, I got great results with it and I think you'll be totally blown away once you try it....

All kinds of info if you use the search feature on the forum and it really boils down to how you prepare the car. But I will chime in with what I use and am very happy with. I started out by using Adam's Revive Polish, followed immediately with Adam's Buttery Wax, and in between wax jobs I use Adam's Detail Spray. Their products are easy to use, leave a great finish and the cost is low in comparison to many others.
