Guys,
I've got a 2008 white Dodge Caravan in need of some protection. Please suggest some waxes that do well with white cars.

Thanks!

For white I LOVE Pinnacle Liquid Souveran!

White car, get a liquid wax like souveran, or maybe you'd be interested in trying collinite 845. These waxes give off a bright shine, nice for white.

Any of the waxes and sealants sold by AG will do a great job on a white car. I currently use Optimum Car Wax (spray) which is easy to use and quite durable.

I also alternate with Poorboy's Natty Blue paste which is also quick and foolproof. Though it is formulated for darks, it'll work on lights as well.

Try using Poorboy's Natty's (white paste) or Poorboy's Natty's Red. They both work well with all colors, and, like Natty's Blue, can be applied in sun or shade, easy to buff off, and leave little to no residue.

And the best part of the waxes I've mentioned? VERY affordable!

However, in the end, it will all come down to personal preference....what fits your budget, works best for you, desired results, etc.

Happy detailing!

Any of these DuraGloss products:

-#111
-#101

Add #601 to the mix (20% ratio) and your all set. I have #501 and #105 and can't comment on them per say but I have no reason to think that they're nothing but spectacular products as well.

White is 100% about POP, no need to worry about depth with white, so stick with sealants and you can't go wrong!

Many of the folks here say without reservation that many of the Duragloss products have been absolutely stunning on white vehicles.

I'm in the process myself, of amassing a handful of select Duragloss products to try out on my white '97 Tahoe, I have gotten the #501 Marine-RV Cleaner-Sealant already, and will be getting #105, #111, #601 Bonding Agent, and Aquawax soon. In fact I have a bottle of #105 on order through AG as I type this.

These products I list above are very reasonable in cost, are said to be absolutely superb, long lasting, high shine, available both here, and possibly at your local CarQuest-NAPA Auto Stores.

When I get the chance, I will be comparing them to Wolfgang WGDGPS 3.0, and some others. Mark

BFCS, WG Deep Gloss Spray Sealant, and RELOAD. All look great and are very very easy to apply. Truth be told, the gloss comes from the compounding/polishing and total surface prep prior to applying the LSP.

Man scratch that, you have white! Go ahead and get the dg501 to bring out as much white as possible(CLEAN PAINT) then wax or seal on top of the 501. YEEEAAH protection for the longest!

What are you looking for? Shine or protection?
