yes indeed, Meguiars Gold Class is amazing. paste is cool, but for some reason i just dig the liquid more.The Cheat said:Meguiars Gold Class...the choice for both me and my partner-in-crime mentalvdub. She swears by the liquid, I swear by the paste.
we need to wax our bugs together sometime!
i just used mcguire's deep crystal three step system today: paint cleaner, polish and carnuba wax. it was a lot of work, but the results were well worth it. since i've only had the car for a few weeks, i had no idea how well the exterior had been cared for, so i wanted to start off clean. also, since i did some paint chip touch up on tuesday, i bought some rubbing compound and some polishing compound (both turtle wax) and used it on the touch ups. i also used the polishing compound on some scratches, and what a difference! i am in love with this stuff! there were a few spots that didn't disapear, but most of them did.
as for the carnuba not lasting long, eh. it's so easy to apply, that i don't mind waxing more often, and at least if it wears off quickly, i shouldn't have to worry much about buildup!
i should also add that we did the three step on a friend's car that had definitely seen better days. the difference there is amazing. it's a white car, and when we started with the paint cleaner, we could see that the paint had gotten so bad that it had actually turned quite grey!! but the paint cleaner really cleaned it up. it's white again!
i will say though, that even though i love my cool white beetle, white is not the easiest color to polish. it's so easy to miss a spot and not know it!

You won't be disappointed. I wax mine with Zaino once a year. In spring, after about 11 months since the last application, I've had people comment on my car, thinking I just pulled it off the showroom floor. The shine just can't be beat!blood banker said:

Yup. Although, keep in mind, I don't drive it much in the winter, so that helps. I do put a second application on the winter car in the fall.curly said:once a year??? are you serious?!?! how often do you wash the car? zaino's might be worth the price just to save the work!!
