prolly been done to death but what is everyone using to wax this blue? i wash with meguiers gold class shampoo and dry with micro-fiber or chamois...just about time for wax......help...opinions

 

Duragloss #951 Auquawax.

Duragloss AW (Aquawax) is formulated to wax after washing in one easy step. Duragloss AW produces a high gloss, durable finish with minimal effort. Contains no abrasives. Clear Coat safe.

 

same wax you would use on any colour. that colour is alot easier to keep clean then my true blue or any dark colour for that matter.

 

My baby is Medium Wedgewood Blue and here is the detailing regimen I use:

- Wash with Meguiar's Gold Class
- Once over with Bug & Tar Remover
- Clay Magic clay bar treatment
- Meguiar's #7 Show Car Glaze
- Meguiar's Nxt -- 1 coat
- Meguiar's #26 Carnuba Wax -- 1 or 2 coats

My truck is a real Garage Queen, so it doesn't see a lot of daily abuse. If yours is a daily driver you might want to go with something more "aggressive" before the Show Car Glaze.

 

Personally, I really like a synthetic overlain with a pure carnauba wax on dark colors - like blue.

How much time are you willing to put into this deal? We can work you for a full day or for a few hours. Let us know and maybe we can dial in a more specific plan for you that will really make the blue (and the flake in it) POP...

Another vote for the Aqua Wax. I used it on a friends car last weekend and it looked great. I got better results spraying it on dry paint rather than just after rinseing. It was on sale at CarQuest for $4.99. I've posted this pic here before but heres what the car looked like after Aqua Wax.

 

I use Meg's NXT and really like the color. I sometimes put on a coat of #16 too.

Nice job Sleestak. Not bad for $4.99.

 

LOL...hey this is my baby we're talking about....not driven daily but driven ....only 4700 since August...down a little further south and HOT....muggy...i want her to really POP basically, want to know what wax everyone is using...the other i have down pat but wax is a touchy subject when you talk durability

 

so how many steps are you wanting to use? do you want an all in one,. or are you willing to do several steps tp get the look you want ?

 

Meg car wash soap
chammois dry
Mothers California Gold Clay bar
Folllow up with Meg NXT or Satin Gloss.
In between waxing I use quick detail sprays such as EZ shine or Quick detaier
