the newest BEST wax ???
Wolfgang Füzion Carnauba Polymer Estate Wax
WOW... Now I can see spending the big $$ if I had a dark colored car, but with a cashmere silver metallic I'm not sure I can justify spending the $$... |

As far as the wolfgang, check out zymols most expensive wax, over 7 thousand dollars. For me, my marginal utility diminishes hugely after $30 for a wax.

Sorry forgot to finish this. While consumer reports compares waxes, they dont realize there are different classes of wax. They compared pure wax to cleaner wax, the difference is a cleaner wax has very mild abrasives in it which actually polish the paint, but a pure wax is just that, wax. No cleaners in it, just glossy material, so they cant get rid of the swirls. Because of this oversight, I can not take them as a valid source for auto wax.
But heres the thing, as long as you achieve the results your looking for, thats all that matters.

The amount of abrasives in a cleaner wax is very minuscule so i doubt it will do much damage. A cleaner wax works best on a car that has been polished within the last 3-4 weeks with minor swirls from a couple washes. It also can make a cars swirls appear less if you have never polished, but swirls will still be evident.
