Hey fellas. Well I'm about to buy some Wax, and I'm not quite sure which one I should get. I'm buying from waxit.com.au because I live in Australia.

I'm leaning towards DP Max Wax, but I'm not sure. It'll mostly be used on my dads car, which is black. I want the paint looking very deep and black, but I don't know. I've noticed like, cars without the " metallic flakes " look alot darker then cars with? And I want my dads car to look real wet and black, so I don't know if Max Wax is the one? Can someone please help me select a Wax. I don't want tp spend over $35.

Thanks for your help.

If you want a deep and wet look for black, check out Nattys Blue. If you would like a wax that adds shine, deph and reflection to any color, I suggest MaxWax.

If it is the deph you are going for, check out Nattys.

I'd say NB (the blue stuff)

Keeping it under 35 bucks, Natty's Blue is my choice!!

It's hard to beat maxwax IMO! Easy on easy off.

I personally like the P21s/S100 Carnauba Wax.

I originally got the P21S Wax at $30. I then found that they more or less brand the same exact wax as S100 for Motorcycles, so I stopped by my local Harley Dealership and picked one up. I loved the results, and only for $15. Can't beat it in my opinion.

I am going to try out the Natty's Blue later on this summer as I keep hearing how well they do on Black cars. We will see.

For now at least, I don't think you can beat S100 for the money at $15.00.

NB or MaxWax both good choices and you really can't go wrong.

I've got some $$ waxes, Souveran, CG 5050 etc....I still love NB, not even b/c of how cheap it is, just gives such a dark wet look. I've honestly noticed no difference between it and Souv. Max Wax is still great, can't go wrong either way.

Didn't care for S100, which I also grabbed at Harley Dealer like mentioned above, zilch durability, and just not the deep, wet look my others above have. Got rid of it.

I just went through the same dilemma and the board is right on. You can't go wrong with either NB or Max Wax. I chose the Max Wax because it was recommended by the someone who worked at AG for 5 years, he said that it's like butter.....easy on.....easy off with no dusting. I'm glad I went with the MAx Wax......great stuff. However, I will be picking up some NB on my next order to compare.

Seems like you need to pick up some sort of Pinnacle wax to try to though... there are a few to pick from!

PS100 - or whatever it is called - I used it. It went on nicely, came off easily, did not leave white marks, and smells nice. As for durability and shine, on a new car that was also prepped beforehand, I can't say I saw a real difference, sorry - except in price.
And it has hardly rained, and I keed loaded in with spray wax in between - so I have begun to wonder.
Especially after the post with that old bottle of KIT crap - I mean wax.....
