    I'm crazy about washing my vehicles, I despise a dirty truck. I'm looking for a wax that goes on easy comes, off easy and that's good for those angel hair scratches. I've been using Meguirs Cleaner wax, their one of my vendors, but I'm up to try anything new.

    Last year I used Mothers cleaner wax with great results. My brother swears by the Turtle Wax Ice, but I haven't tried it yet. He likes it because you can put it on all your black plastic and what not and it actually shines it instead of leaving white residue.

    I've used Meguirs for the past year or so. I love their line up! We use it on the trucks all the way to our 71 Challenger R/T and 71 Monte Carlo SS, Once were done restoring our T/A Bandit Edition we'll use it on that as well!

    My favorite wax that I've used so far is Meguiars. It works great on the body itself, but also works really well on chrome/alloy wheels.

    It's a truck...:cool:

    Had to bust on you a little there.


    While I don't wax often since my truck is offroad pretty regularly, I've had decent luck with turtle wax. No residue left behind, and it's good at taking out the tiny hairline scratches, but not the ones inflicted by rocks or driving through the top of a hing-cut tree (don't ask:D).

    Meguiars is the only product we will use. If you have a buffer, the machine glaze #3 is great ( a very light cut). You can still use it by hand but a buffer makes it sooo much easier. If you need something with a heavier cut, which at this time I doubt it, the cleaner/polish #83 does good but its a heavier cut so be careful. The basic Hi-Tech yellow wax #26 is great all around hand or buffer. Easy on and easy off. Hope this helps. Oh yeah...the Quick Wax is decent too if you're just wanting a quick spruce-up.
