Wax and Polish

What are you clear coat painted car owners using?

I need to buy a good cleaner wax. In the past I've used Meguiar’s.

Re: Wax and Polish

If I'm waxing I start by washing with Dove dish soap, it removes most of the old wax.
Then I proceed with Turtle Wax liquid clay bar.
Then I use a clay bar on the thing.
Then I finish off with either Turtle Wax or Maguires rub on wax.

It leaves the finish spotless, and this procedure gets most of the swirls out if done properly. Oh yea I only use microfiber cloths.

Re: Wax and Polish

I use mothers carnuba or cleaner wax. I find it to be good quality without spending a ton on the better meguiars.
