Not to sound like an a-hole but there is a search function. Type in wax and see what pops up. There are to many to mention and its a personal choice as to what works and looks the best to you.

Yep fresh meat....
To expand on the list poorboys natty blue, white, or red(hard to find). The poorboys goes on and comes off very nicely the only thing is that they dont last as long as some of the other LSPs. But at the end of the day it all comes down to personal preferences, so you are going to get a million different answers and you will just have to make a decision on what you want to use.

Throw me a link or some info on p21s100%? Who makes it?

And my waxes of choice are...

NXT 2.0 followed by #26 (Mainly bc they are the only ones i have used so far and are still in my arsenal!)

My next order i may venture into the line of poorboys!

I was wondering about the Souveran, is it really worth the $80 and

P21s ive never heard of it hows the durability Cause we all know what Carnauba does for the shine.

It's all about the paint prep work... thorough paint cleaning and polishing. If you are not going to take those steps prior to waxing, forget every product that has been recommended in this thread, and get yourself some Mothers or Meguiar's cleaner wax, and use that one a month or so.

Finally, one of the masters speaks. As usual, he also speaks the absolute truth.

Just to add my 2 cents, if you believe anything that Billy Mays sells / says or if you believe that any product that claims to be able to restore the finish on a junkyard car to showroom condition by simply wiping it on or off, don't. Like boss says, it's all in the prep work.
