My '73 2.0 is close to being finished. Al Reed is doing the Fuchs as I write.

Question:

What do you guys use to get that "wet" look with wax. I have used Macguires (sp?) in the past. Doesn't seem to hold up that long. A friend says that "airplane" wax can be used as well for durability.

Don't want to spend a fortune. My car is a driver. I'd like something that I can pick up at a retail store if possible. Willing to do more than one stage of waxing. i wanna turn heads!!!

Pics soon.

Scott:

I've got a closet full of products that I've tried over the past 30 years. Up to a couple of years ago, I always returned to the high carnuba content aircraft wax, with the now discontinued "J-Wipes" between waxing. It was always a pain to put on but it lasted.


Now, without hesitation I'd say the P21S Paintwork Cleansing Lotion followed by P21S Concours Carnuba is tops. For quick in between waxing I use the Wurth Zerba Finish.
