Red face what car wax brand is good?
So i've been looking around for a good car wax. (Man, what's up with this weather...)

What's good out there? and most importantly, does canadian-tire have it?

Because i never remember MY G looking as shiny as this one:



Thanks

P21S but its not available at CDN Tire.

You might want to try ordering online...www.eshine.ca .

They are local.

Also maybe try Poorboys Natty's paste wax(Original since you have a white coupe)

You're going to be limited to specific products at Cdn Tire...Meguires, Turtle Wax, Mothers etc...

I highly recommend picus112, not a wax brand but one hell of a detailer. I am lazy so I usually get Kevin to bring the car back to showroom.

Yes I was hoping on getting the Master to do our X but with a 3 hour drive and a couple month wait, it's impossible to set something up. I guess I just have to forget about it .

Arguable the best OTC wax if you can find it is Meg's #20 polymer sealant or #21 synthetic sealant, both provide 3+ months of good protection and can be found at some NAPA's, not sure where to find it in Canada though

We have NAPA here in Canada but I don't know what they would carry.

Just remember that wax won't do any good if the paint is not properly prepared. All swirls removed, micromarring removed, polished up nice. Then you put wax on. If done right, the car will look awesome without wax/sealant.

The easiest sealant is Zaino Clear Seal. Wipe on in 10 minutes, no buffing, and lasts about 9 months. Expensive but my time is valuable

Zaino, used it on my G and loved the results.

I purchased the total package. Check out http://www.zaino.ca/ , speak to Tom. Hes a great guy and very knowledgeable. Hes out in Oakville, he even took 30 minutes out of his lunch break to assess my vehicle, teach me how to use the product and emailed me a how-to customized to my vehicles needs.
