What Is The Best Car Wax?

Here is our best stab at tackling the question, "What is the best car wax?" Send us your comments if you believe otherwise! Choosing the right wax or sealant is dependent on a couple of factors.  Wax products usually are sold in liquid or paste form & contain blends of many waxes or just pure Carnauba wax.  These products are generally less expensive and have to be reapplied more often.  Polymer sealants, on the other hand, bond to the clear coat and last much longer.  Although they cost more, we recommend these sealants because they give the same or better glossy finish with less work in the long run.

So what is the best car wax maintainer? Whether you use a Carnauba wax or a sealant, the best way to maintain that “just waxed” look is to use a spray wax.  With an “easy on - easy off” application, these products will maintain the highest gloss without re-waxing every time.  Spray waxes are applied and taken off with microfiber towels like Surf City Garage's Nano-Detail Polishing Cloths (3/pack) or Meguiar's® Supreme Shine® MICROFIBER 3/PK : X2020
