What do you guys recommend for wax on a Lexus Single stage paint

[Acer9103]

As the title says I have a black single stage Lexus I want to keep it protected from the florida heat and scratches/swirls.What wax do you guys recommend.:xyxthumbs:

Also what type of pads and polishes do you guys recommend for heavy swirls and lights swirls.

are you sure it's single stage? Lexus uses tinted clear on their black cars so just b/c you get some black colouring on your pads when you polish doesn't necessarily mean it's single stage.

In the Florida heat, a wax won't last you that long. You may want to consider a sealant like WGDGPS topped with something like souveran or fuzion or maybe a coating to help protect the soft lexus paint

Lexus black is single stage, not tinted clear. This was confirmed to me by the dealership when I inquired.

I never believe what the dealer tells me. I've been quoted for a transmission fluid flush and told them to take it off b/c the fluid in my car is lifetime (there isn't even a drain plug on the car) and they argued with me until I showed it to them in the manual.

is it possible that they mix clear in with the base coat? I've read about that theory on autopia before...

What year is the car?

Just ran around my shop and asked our paint guys and they all say the same thing. We do not have any single stage paint on our vehicles.

Why would Lexus spray a single stage and not a 2stage?

[embolism]

it is 2 stage

and it's expensive so don't go wetsanding it thinking it's only ss...

if you go through the clear, then the basecoat looks like caca

I polished it 2 weeks ago using LC flat foam yellow and orange pads using Poorboys polish and my pads had paint transfer.Or was it something else?
I washed and clayed before paint correction.
