    Help me decide my next wax!

    I have been searching and researching for over a month on what I want my next wax to be. Im not interested in any of the PBMG at all, especially Fuzion and Souvern. I tried a sample pot of Dodo BV pro and didn't care for the looks too much. My car is a BMW Monaco Blue Metallic which is a very dark blue with metallic. I really want a wax that will help bring out the metallic because it has always been pretty muted except for in direct sunlight. Right now I am looking at Zymol Glasur and Concours. Im also heavily considering Swissvax Blau Weiss and Shield. I cant decide which one I want. Im open to other suggestions too!

    Maybe Adam's Patriot. I haven't used it personally though.

    Re: Help me decide my next wax!

    Let me see, then, if I can suggest a wax that falls within the range
    between this forum's host-waxes, and a brand it doesn't even sell.

    Besides Meguiar's M26 'Hybrid-wax' (which has been proven to increase the D.O.I.)...
    I'll have to suggest an LSP that's not a 'wax': Wolfgang DGPS...
    (Sealants tend to "bring-out" the metallic flake, IMO).

    In general nubas will cause the metallics in paint to be less reflective. Sealants leave a glossier finish giving the illusion that the metallics are "popping". Duragloss 111 or 105 might give you the look your after.

    Chemical Guys has some nice nubas. I just did this black Shelby with BL and Petes 53 Black Pearl.

    I have Glasur and like it, but I don't think it looks as good as Fuzion or Souveran. It does last much longer. Are you looking for looks or longevity? Have you considered Bouncers or Auto Finesse?

    Rubbish Boy Juiced Edition or Vanilla Ice, I also like Definitive Wax Ostendo.

    Still, polish is the key.

    Definitive Wax looks interesting. Can you compare Ostendo to any AG products?
