I have a decent selection of waxes but wanted to know if any of you have a preferred production wax used on clients cars? I would even entertain ones with a filler as I want the best possible look after a standard wash
thanks in advance

I use Ibiz or meguiars number 26 profession wax. Both are good for detailing job, but ibiz has a slightly more of a shine to it

CG Butter wax is not bad and priced right for production.

Chemical Guys Cherry Wax or Carnauba Creme Wax w/ X Seal. Cherry Wax appears to be a hybrid of Butter Wet Wax and Carnauba Creme Wax w/ X Seal. Easy to use, contain fillers, have slight cleaning ability, and last longer than a week. I have more testing planned for Cherry Wax but right now it's a hidden gem in my opinion.

Hey Richard,
This is an interesting product...:props:
Would you consider this a 1-step or all-in-one product? It's sounds very much like Duragloss #105 or Meguiar's D151....

Meguiars X-Press Liquid Wax is a fast way to apply shine and lasting protection to your car. Apply Meguiars Express Liquid Wax with your polisher or (http://www.autogeek.net/meguiar-s-x-press-liquid-wax.html)
(This could also depend upon your definition of "production", I imagine.)

Megs #26 It lasts a while and I like the deep gloss It gives white or black cars. It looks good and smells good like bananas lol not that it matters.
128 oz. Meguiars Mirror Glaze #26 Hi-Tech Liquid Carnauba Wax (http://www.autogeek.net/me26hilicawa.html)
I don't remember if it stains trim or not I pretty much only use #845 and layer #26 for my cars but #845 is my go to because It lasts longer, safe on trim and a little goes a long way.

It is an interesting product Bobby. I thought their description sounded a little like DG 105 which is why I picked up the regular Carnauba Creme wax but wasn't too impressed the first time. At this point I don't feel it has quite the cleaning ability of DG 105 and it's no where near D151 in terms of cut. I have some more testing planned including taking it through the touchless to see how the claims of detergent resistant polymers hold up. I know for a fact the Duragloss' claims are true. It does in fact fill minor wash induced swirls which makes it great for daily drivers, keeps your mind off of wanting to perform a correction every time you look at the paint! :buffing: :laughing:

I have to say I love using 845 as a "production wax"
15 bucks a bottle and I lost count of how many cars trucks and suv's I used the same bottle with. And I've got a good half a bottle left.
And the shine and feel it puts on the paint definitely wows the customer IMO
