Lightbulb Need Wax, Not Zaino!

Well, for all you poor blokes that don’t live in Louisiana, the Mardi Gras weekend is upon us again . I will of course have to have my truck waxed for the festivities. I procrastinated once again, and will not have my Zaino in time! What are some other good waxes and clay bars I can pick up at any local autostore or wal-mart. Thanks!

you can use maguire's clay-bar and cherry wax... those are decent and you can find them at PepBoys.

Mothers Clay bar from wal mart and s100 wax from Harley. S100 is the best locally available wax I have ever seen.

If you want something you can pick up locally, Liquid Glass is some great stuff
contains NO wax or silicones, so you have to do a good dawn wash 1st to remove any old wax or it wont stick right, but its got a great shine, holds up pretty well, and looks great. I got compliments all the time on what stuff i used on my truck. I use zaino now and its a step above LG, but the LG is still some good stuff and i use it on my other truck.
their webiste is www.liquidglass.com but you can find it in places like pepboys and stuff. its around 20 bucks a can, but you get what you pay for

I feel I get a pretty good finish from Meguiars Professional line of products. You can usually get them at Pep Boys or one of the other parts stores. Try a coat of #7 Show Car Glaze followed by a coat of #26 Yellow wax and you should be good to go.

You can get Zaino in three days. Just call up and put it on your credit card. What's the problem?
