    Wax for yellow color in a hot area? - currently using Collinite 915

    Hi all,
    My car is a 1995 Fiat Punto cabriolet.



    I live in Israel which temperature gets around 45c at summer.
    Ive always used Collinite 476 and began to use 915 for a few years.

    I'm looking to try a new paste wax, that would enhance the color and give it a great shine, along with the most durability protection available (At least 5 months).
    I've never used a sealent on the car, as I haven't really seen the car shine so much from it.
    915 is still great for my use, but I want to try something new.

    My car is more like yellow/orange color. and not a "banana yellow" like this seat:



    So I wouldn't want this result of fading color or it to look like banana yellow.
    What wax should I try for around 70$?

    The ones that caught my eye are Dodo Juice banana armour (as it's special for yellow colours)

    or Chemical Guys "Lava", by looking at videos and this FIAT car shine:

    Lava sux.

    Banana Armor is a beauty wax. Prolly get 2 mos at best.

    Synergy competes well with Collinite 915 - but it's significantly more expensive.

    Lava is garbage, save yourself the mistake on that one.

    You're probably already using the best for the application you're describing.

    Dodo Banana would look great but will no have the durability of what you currently use.

    FK1000P is a wax that's more of a sealant that is known for great durability. It's also known for being a wax that's good for high temperatures.

    I have a chrome yellow mustang cobra and have tried many different products on it. My favorites for looks are dodo juice orange crush and HD Poxy. Of the 2, I can pretty much guarantee you that the Poxy will last longer, but I'm still not sure if it will have the longevity you are looking for.
