Need wax recommendations for new car

[eyost]

Hi all,

I have a 9 month old Honda CRV paint color is Urban Titanium (brownish bronze) and am looking for waxing process recommendations. I realize that prep is the most important and I want to do it right to take care of the new car.

I have been looking at Meguiars and have been recommended the Ultimate Wax by one of their reps. Any thoughts?

I know wash, dry, clay, not sure the next step, and then wax.

Thanks for any info or suggestions.

I would use Ulimate Polish after claying and then Ultimate Wax

Meg's is OK, but can't compete with other offerings sold here. If you want something really nice, get the Wolfgang Twins and Fuzion.

OHP
OOS
OCW

Then again, why not try an AIO like OPS or GPS topped with OCW. Maybe even XMT 360 topped with 180.

Can't go wrong with either Max Wax or XMT-180 as a carnauba topper, IMO, if you're just in the market for a wax.

You are right prep is key. After clay.....I'm a fan of collinite 845 and top with carnuba paste. Some people glaze then do combo. But usually a glaze is when swirl removal etc has been done. If there is wax on your vehicle, I would take off before claying. Use plenty of clay lube. Good luck.

Thanks all for the suggestions. I probably should have added what would be your suggestions for the wash.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

i like meg's stuff, i used to buy poorboys, pinnacle, zaino, clearkote, wolfgang, etc, and the stuff at my local autozone like meg's, blows the others away as far as looks goes. and cheaper too. i used meg cleaner wax, then meg no 7 then meg 26 today, and it looks better to me than all other prodcuts i mentioned earlier.

1+ agrees. I'm thinking of getting rid of my pinnacle and other waxes and just stick with Meg's.
