New wax wanted for iceburg

[Christophe]

My p21's or r222 as the new name is running out. I think it works well but wondered if there is anything that might be better but is no more expensive than £25.

FinishKare 1000P Hi-Temp Sealant

Out of these 3 i would choose FK 1000P

 

[Christophe]

interesting. would you say the last one is as good as p21's? I know i probably won't tell much difference between most waxes on a silver car.

 

[alex-avfc]

The 1000P will have better durability than the R222 but I doubt it will be better lookswise. If you're happy with the R222 then stick with it.

 

[Gareth]

I'd go for R222 still, I loved it on my Iceberg, I recently purchased both R222 & 476S from cleanyoucar, still got to use either on the E-Class.

I've also got a new pot of Swissvax Onyx though, hmm choices, choices

 

[.Ben.]

One vote for 476s!

 

[-J-]

i use FK1000P on mine... VERY long lasting wax.

 

[RussZS]

Agree with Alex here - the R222 is an epic looking wax for the money, but it doesn't last very long, so it's one for warmer times IMO.

1000P or Colli 476S are a great choice on silver, especially this time of year. The Colli will last longer than the Finish Kare, but the FK is easier and less forgiving to remove

1000P on a silver Type-R

I was a big P21s fan. Yet to try the FK stuff.

Same, FK will provide good durability if you use it right.

 

[Parky]

FK product is superb, combine with the FinishKare #2180 Ultra Polymer Sealant and you are on to a winner....

Id have a look at the new Road & Track wax from Valentines to mate..

476s if your gona change.

But you might as well stick with what you like if your happy with it

 

[Christophe]

Might just stick to r222. I know it isn't the longest lasting but i do wax it every week so works fine for me.

 

[JD]

No need to wax every week fella, that really is just a waste of money.

R222 will last a month minimum. Do two thin layers every 1-2 months and that will see you fine. TBH sealents are where it's at. Get some Chem Guys blitz on it.

 

[Cliotoby]

Collinite or Fk should last you.... a long time. I had 2 coats on a silver car and a year later it was still sheeting. Didnt get washed though. I find Fk and Colly are the longest lasting ive ever used, but theyre so s**t to use i dont bother with them anymore. My GT had a quick coat of Fk and 3 months later it still sheets. Started using best of Show as my winter wax now.

Not used 222 so i cannot comment.

+1 Blitz takes minutes to apply and remove for the whole car

I'm still loving the Werkstatt Acrylic and my new favourite wax is Vics Concours.

 

[Christophe]

my p21's has lasted me just over a year. i dont use much each time.

 

[planetx]

I tried Dodo Juice light fantastic, topped with Werkstatt Acrylic and found it to work really well, when non OCD type people looked at my car they would often blab on how "wet" the paint looks.

This was after copious amounts of paint correction over 2 months.

P.S this was on my vee (iceberg)

Blitz or the Werkstatt Kit (currently using this)
