Which brand of wax/polish do you use

Mr. BMW · 05-18-2006, 09:11 AM

Just curious what most people on here are using.

gdnyc · 05-18-2006, 09:41 AM

For the spring and summer I use Menzerna FP, 3M Imperial machine glaze and top it off with One Grand Blitz. In the fall and winter I apply Zaino since I would not be able to wash it as frequently. Also I am trying to finish all my other products so I can stick with Zaino all year round

Are you sure about that? Looks like from the voting only about 38% use Zaino.

P2 · 05-22-2006, 12:41 PM

I have used many waxes. The two I like the best, and they only two I have tried on my 325 are:
PS21
Collinite #845

I just did the car with PS21 for the first time yesterday. Very, Very nice shine and easy to work with. A little better then Collinite. We shall see how it is on durability. I park at the airport often. Jet exhaust is very acidic and some waxes just don't last long. The Collinite has been one of the better in durability and ease of application.

ga-bmwdrvr · 05-22-2006, 02:22 PM

I use Mothers Reflections topped with Collinite 845. I agree with P2 on the Collinite as far as durability and ease of application. On TiAg it gives a very good look too.

E90Boy · 05-22-2006, 02:27 PM

It seems that Zaino, so much work involved to get the application on.

E90Boy · 05-22-2006, 02:27 PM

I'm willing to try it, but don't know where to buy it.

CnoteMD · 05-22-2006, 05:51 PM

I had to go with "other" since I use Klasse.

impulsebrklyn · 05-22-2006, 10:03 PM

I voted other!! Here is a just a taste these pictures arent even up to date. I got the whole Werkstatt Collection and some other goodies. Ive had to take the gallons out cause there is no room for them and Ive got another container of MF's. Chris
