I know, but one way or the other, it always tips one way

Souveran paste will always be my favorite wax hands down! However sealants, polishes, tire gels etc are more hard to pick a favorite. There are just so many good ones.

Not really. "Best" becomes very subjective, in a "the eye of the beholder" type of thing. Some people like carnubas, other like sealants etc. I think you'll find that quite a few of the boutique brands will give you very similar results, in some cases maybe identical. Some factor you have to consider is the type of surface you have, color, the product's ease of use and stuff like that. You just have to try different products and see what you like the best. Happy shopping.

yeah "best" is definately in the eye of the beholder. but from my observation i would say if you want the best of the best (in most if not all products) you should steer clear of products u can pick up at your local autozone. boutique products tend to be better in every sense it just amazes me. i recently got my order in and i had wolfgang sealant. i was expecting to have to scrub away to buff it off like i had to with the nxt wax ive always used. but nope, one soft swipe with a microfiber and it was gone and it looked much better than nxt wax could ever dream of. so those are my words of wisdom.

^^^^I agree, boutique products are usually whay easier to use than OTC. However there are some OTC products that will work just as good as boutiques like car wash shampoos and tire dressings. Compounds, polishes and waxes, boutique is definately the whay to go IMO.

What's the best car? There's no way to answer that question either. The best is the product or products that work the best for you.
