Default Whats Your Favorite Wax

Well, what your favorite car wax? I need a new paste wax, and I wanna get the best for under $8-9. I used some turtle wax the last 2 times, and it didnt do good. When it rained, the water spotted on the car. It didnt just bead up, it left spots. Post what you recomend.

Thanks!

NuFinish. Its fairly cheap, and it actually is a one year wax, while most others that claim they are aren't. I still only go a few months between waxes, but its nice to know it is protecting the car the whole time. Just my opinion though...

I don't use the paste, but I use the Meguiars Gold Class, and the Mothers California Gold liquid waxes. I like em a lot.

The Mothers 3 phase wax is awesome... but it takes all day....

For quick and good results, Eagle Nano-Wax.

Gold Class liquid and a ROB.

You don't want water to bead up, but SHEET off.

I've used Nano wax when I've waxed mine.

Probably going to Zaino or Meg'* after I've used the Nano wax up.
