Wax testing on it.

I waxed the Truck yesterday using 3 different waxes and polymers.
First I washed with a boat soap (West Marine's Wash & Wax) Wash & Wax I have found this one of the best soaps I have used.
Then I used Collinte Fiberglass Boat Cleaner No920 to clean the surface.Collinte FBC No 920

And here I start to mix it up

I used Maguires MG No 26 on the tail gate and on the front doors. ( I don't think you can get this one anymore)


Then I used Collinte Fleetwax On the bed box, hood and roof.collinite marine Fleetwax No 885

And then I used Mothers Syn Wax for the back doors Mothers Syn wax

Between the waxes the Mirror Glace was the easiest to put on but the hardest to take off

The Fiberglass cleaner was equally hard to put on and take off but easier than the Mirror Glace

The Fleetwax was fair both in application and removal

The Syn wax was the easiest but it seems so thin or different than the waxes.

And here are the preliminary results we will see what holds up the best in a few weeks or hopefully months.

My money is on Collinite by a landslide. Meg's #26 is available just not in that container anymore. It's also available in a liquid.

Hey, no fair for the Collinite. You put it in the hardest spots to protect; the roof, and hood. Those are the first spots to go wax-wise on the Expy for me.
