what wax , £50 max

[welsh.Z.S.]

as above , what wax would u guys suggest , not spending anymore than 50 pound ..

 

[JD]

Carbon.

 

[MatthewR]

Carbon again

 

[aucky]

Iceberg, B22

 

[Yellow Dave]

Zymol carbon is very hard to beat sub £100 as an all round wax. I personally think it's as good as Glasur

 

[Cliotoby]

Carbon

 

[MatthewR]

Iceberg, B22

Another good shout, bouncers 22 is a very good fax and performs well above its price tag!

 

[aucky]

Especially for light flakey colours. For flakes it really pops!

 

[MatthewR]

I do love B22 on my silver, however I've found that carbon has the edge on durability and beading

 

[welsh.Z.S.]

Hi guys, ive narrowed it down between dodo juice rubbish boys juiced edition and vics red ... thoughts on both ?

 

[Gally]

Lols! After those suggestions?

Rubbishboys is very much a homemade wax and feels like it. Not the easiest to use.

I wouldn't recommend either at the moment to be honest.

 

[Knuckles]

Lol!

 

[Yellow Dave]

Never used rubbish boys, but ddj waxes never last long or keeps there looks longer than 2weeks. vics red leaves a nice glow to darker flatter colours. You won't benefit from using it on silver over most other waxes. if you want vics forget concours and look at collector's yellow. But with both durability isn't great, water behaviour although very good drops off very quickly.

Ps a bit more of what you want from a wax would help other than just budget.

DW suggestions at it again. Opinion equals fact.

 

[riz]

If your using it on iceberg your wasting your money with any decent wax.

 

[welsh.Z.S.]

Whats the durability like on carbon mate ?

 

[Yellow Dave]

Not quite true riz. Some waxes work great with silver's and light colours, just not all

Sealant instead ?

 

[welsh.Z.S.]

Ive also read good things about r222 , Very glassy ? Although the durability isnt the best ? its for a daily driver aswell

Debatable...

Lower pannels where dirt pickup can be about 2 months. Your roof however can last 5-6 months.

Beading if washed with BTBM will stay strong for about 4-5 washes. Sheets thereafter.

Its great. Spreads so well with German applicators. Smells great looks great.

 

[welsh.Z.S.]

arent sealants better for lighter colours mate ? Also isnt carbon aimed at darker colours, i believe they have another thats aimed for lighter shades although i cant think what its called off the top.of my head ..

 

[MatthewR]

carbon works well on my silver but honestly, id go for Bouncers 22. I applied two coats of it this morning to my silver and its so easy to use and brings so much of the flake out of the paint!

 

[welsh.Z.S.]

I used my supernatural hybrid again today (1st time in ages) and am suprised how crisper it looks compared to hard candy, so may get another tub of this, although i do like trying new waxes lol

​Supernatural hybrid gets the thumbs up from me

 

[Cliotoby]

Ha. Cheers for that text last night.

Once a month yeah! I washed once a week.

On my GT the wax as almost dead on my boot and rear bumper after 4 weeks and 4 washes!

Got home at 6am. No way was I going to text anything else lol.

SNH was a real disappointment to me. Looked nice enough, but durability and water behaviour, and resistance to contaminants bonding was only a little better than other ddj waxes. Certainly not what I'd expect from a hybrid.

AG HD wax would be above SNH in my list.

 

[Cliotoby]

All these acronyms make my brain hurt.

 

[Kel11]

Ag hd seens to be a very good wax for rhe price
