Favorite Car Wax - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #60619 52 posts Started by Legit94GT
So a while ago i bought ICE car wax, and i love it:) it is super easy to apply and it polishes everything, even the black molding piece around the windows look better...

So i was washing my car today and appreciateing the awesome waxyness of my car still, just thouhgt i'd post and see what everyone is using to keep thier celi waxed.



Side note: so i also thought of the best car wax comercial today...

Ok so people from a car wax company(the new best one out there) keeping going missing, the cops investigating it discover that it is people from the car wash business kidnapping all the people because the wax works SO well that dirt doesnt stick on it so people stop washing their cars as much, and the car wash business start to go broke!!!
?? Not bad huh?? lol

I use Ice liquard for sometime, BIG difference between before and after using it, also no getting coloured wax on window squirts etc, which is a pro

I like using the ice as well, havent tried the paste yet, but the spray detailer saves you time if you dont feel like washing, anyone out there try the ice clay bar?
I use the clay bar once every month or so and use the spray in between. I love both products!
Zaino Show Car Polish. It's a multi-stage polishing system, not a wax. Holds up FOREVER (I haven't put a coat on my Vette in a year now and it's layered well enough to not warrant a coat yet). Pricey, but I'm 100% converted.
meguiers tech wax, its the balls.

Do you guys prefer caranuba or paint sealant wax?

What would you suggest for a white car?

For sheer looks, a HIGH quality Carnuba like Pinnacle all the way, but for overall protection and longevity, I find myself sticking with the sealant polish, as the look is close but it lasts WAY longer.

Yeah, I've been looking on autogeek.net, and I found this Wolfgang sealant that looks good.

What products would I need to make sure the paint is prepped for it? Also, sealant is the last step right, just like wax? Also, a buffer isn't necessary is it? I don't mind doing it by hand even if it takes longer, if I can save some money I will.

ICE is caca... jus really easy 2 use cuz it comes off even with the sun on it... the meguires NXT stuff or high tech yellow wax is prolly some of the best easily available off the shelf product... believe me I sell it for a living lol

NXT has the same issue though. I was using it before I switched to Zaino. It would only last me about 2 weeks and I'd find myself having to reapply. Looked GREAT when it was fresh though, just couldn't last at all.
ICE. best stuff ever.

Mothers Carnuba car wax
for a black car nothing is better than meguiers gold class. little expensive but definatly worth it.(paste)
For black cars, nothing beats Meguier's. I use all their products. The only
thing I don't like of their's are the Interior Wipes. They don't give the
interior a good enough shine.

I want to try the Ice before the summer is up and see what it looks like.

How does the Ice interior stuff look? Anyone got a pic?

My new, blue spark plug wires gave my Celica, roughly, 250 more horsepower..94 Celica GT89 Sentra Sport Coupe Project (the other haggard woman)
Meguiars Tech Wax 2.0. Its the real ****! biggrin.gif ICE is really good though.
So this "ICE" stuff you all mention... You referring to the Turtle Wax ICE?
