My absolute favorite wax of all time is Classic Slipstream, a solvent-based carnauba cleaner wax from the 60's-70's. You could actually wax a car in the rain with it, and it was about as durable as Collinite. When I heard the company went under, I bought all I could find in local stores. Sadly, I'm down to my last can.

"Vista" was my Fathers favorite wax back in the day.I grew up wiping that stuff off of his vehicles.A pain in the butt to use but worked great. I remember on the old single stage paints how it would turn the towel the same color as the paint you were waxing. And another to add is Excaliber wax,I think Turtle Wax made it it was easy to use and no dusting....

Ha ha, I have a can of that--I don't think I ever used it. I was saving it for a "good" car, like my Blue Coral kit.

I used to detail for Turtle wax and we used Excalibur, it was a good carnuba, very soft. Easy to remove
