Default Wax ON Wax OFF

Any recommendations on a "Good Quality" wax, and application techniques?

I have done a bit of searching here and have saw wax prodcuts for as much as $1500 a bottle, as well as I have saw different suggestions for applications.

I have a 2005 Silver GT Vert, how do you feel about was on a Silver ride as opposed to lets say a black or red ride?

Furthermore, I haven't had it waxed yet and have notices some small chips on the hood, so I have to get a road durable rpodcut on this baby, as it is my daily driver!

Cheers

Zaino appears to be the cultists choice, on any performance car board.

NXT has been the best wax I've used as of today. Very easy on and off application and the shine is beautiful

Fukken Wax is the wax. Nothing can compare to this stuff. Just spray on and let it dry to a haze and then gently wipe off. I have never experienced anything like it and neither will you. www.fukkenwax.com

I've used just about EVERYTHING on the market during the past 19 years of driving and owning vehicles. I have to agree with Martin, Meguiars NXT seems to get the best results withe least effort, the gloss is truly top notch. Also, if your paint is CLEAN I've always loved Gliptone Pure Carnuba Wax (Green bottle). It gives an excellent wet look for going to car shows and goes on and off easy and you can apply it in the sun.

However, Daniel60, that Fukken wax looks interesting, there are alot of spray on products on the market. I'd love to compare that back to back to see if it's really that good.

The following attachments are with NXT wax.

Sounds more like a finishing product. Not sure how good spay/wipe wax can do for removing swirls and slight scratches and minor fallout or whatever you wanna call it.
Zaino has my vote.

Zaino is THE wax. Deep DEEP shine . You need to look into getting an invisble bra.It's a film thats put on your hood and bumper. Exact computer cut to fit your car. I am an installer of these kits. I did my GT first thing,because it's a daily driver also. Email me if you want more info on this .Legend GT
