iv used liquid wax for 2 years now and im looking to start useing paste sometime soon when i run out of my current stuff.My question is what waxes are soft like butter. Because the last time i used paste it was hard and chalky and i had to scrape it out.price range wise im looking at probably 0-$40.So let me no which paste r soft.

ya liquid wax doesnt last very long either.and iv done enough research to learn that most canaubas arent going to last very long.iv been looking into Max Wax, Natty blue, P21S, SSII, Lusso Oro, and Meg#26

most pure carnaubas are hard in the jar, but warm quite easily after a few passes with a foam applicator.

but did you circle the top of the can with a foamy a couple of times ?? As long as it transferred wax to the pad, you are ready to go. It wont miraculously soften the entire jar just enough for application.


Remember the solvent count is lower in pastes versus liquids as it does not have to be held in liquid form. Thus a paste wax, even Mothers, is hard in the jar/can.

You will note a difference in ease of application when using the Pinnacle pastes, DP pastes, and even the Poorboys pastes which are all offered at Autogeek. SSII and Souveran as the best of the best !

P21S wax is soft, but it lacks on durability. DP Max Wax or Pinnacle SSII goes on and off like butter. get one of those.

For a paste wax that gives good looks and decent durability I would choose MaxWax out of what AG carries.

Interesting topic, which raises some feedback from me. The only liquid wax I have is CMW, all of my others seem to be paste. Interesting trend.

IMO most paste waxes are easier and quicker to use than most liquid waxes. Use to be just the opposite, but not any more.
Disclaimer: still haven't tried Collinite or used #16.

For 30 bucks I would also go with Max wax. Soft like butter, easy on, easy off.

P21s is definitely the easier past wax I have ever applied and it looks great. However, it lacks durability like others have said. I always apply it over a sealant.

Collinite 476s is also a great paste was. It does on easy. It is harder to get of than P21s, but not that hard at all. Durability is great with it.
