Meguiars.....I like the products and the cleaner wax takes off anything that you might have missed.

I use this stuff called solid gold on my subaru. My dad uses zymol and is fond of it. I like the kind i use because you can apply it then wipe it right off.

I've used Meguire's with great results. I've seen other cars that use more expensive wax with similar results. Honestly, in my opnion, it's all about the prep work.

P21S carnauba wax would also work very well, especially on black.

Meguiar's #26 would work well on white. Are you claying and polishing first though?

Soap
Clay
Meguiars Step 1

And only thing im going to change is instead of using their 1-3 step ill be using

Show Glaze #7 or Body Shop Professional Swirl Free Polish #82
Hi-Tech Yellow Wax #26

I'll still be using their soap/clays

I'm telling you guys once you use Zaino you will freak. Do a search on some of the show car forums. The stuff is insane. The absolute best wet paint look and amazing protection with anti-static effect for the dust. Insane!!!
