Re: WTB: Quality Carnuba Wax
Guys,
Thank you so much for your recommendations and tips on this journey. My 2015 Chevy SS is a daily driver and has been kept outside, but after this detail will park it in the garage on a regular basis. I will upload some pictures if I have privileges, know it can take several post to earn this.
Thanks,
Wig

I have Pinnacle Souveran and AutoGlym HD but the Collinite stands out from the crowd and doesn't break the bank.
I am right there with you. I haven't been using it for 35 years and I do not have 35 years left. I just re-applied a new coat of 885 after a year on the 99 Dodge Cummins. I have pretty much tried every Collinite product and all are outstanding. As you stated you still have money left for other things after purchasing.

I have been using Meguiar's M26 Yellow paste waste which contains Carnuba and if I can do better, I'm up for the task.
Thanks,

Wig I've never used Soverign mostly because I have a 16 year old daily driver, that while in great condition, its hard to justify $100 wax for it. I am however a HUGE fan of SSII and the new Trademark wax from McKee's. Both apply and wipe off so easily I feel guilt telling my wife I was waxing my car. It requires so little effort and the results are really spectacular. I also like XMT 180 and stocked up on some before it was replaced. Not as easy to apply and remove, but leaves behind a noteworthy shine. For the money, hard to beat SSII and Trademark IMHO for pastes.

Chemical Guys Pete's 53 is a great and often overlooked carnauba, that and their 50/50 are both exceptional nuba's for the money.
The Blackfire Wet Ice combo is hard to beat for the 1-2 punch and for the $$ it's the best value I've found yet.
Best $69.99 you can spend, you get the best of both worlds.

Poorboy's waxes are really great! Don't let the price fool you, they perform very well. Both the Poorboy's guys are active over on the Autopia forum and there's even more info available over there for Poorboy's specifically than here
