Default found some bad *** wax!I

Well I went to the Htown auto show today and was boring lol. But I went to the vendor section and was looking at all the buffing stuff. Well seen some dude advertising some stuff called PINK WAX . Suppost to be good on plastic, metals,wood,glass,fiberglass ,stainless steel , chrome , polish aluminum . Well I try it on one of the zr1s and well it works bad ***. Its way better then mothers polish I'm using . Took me about 20 min to clean one rim with mothers, and with pink wax took me like 2 min to polish just the face on the zr1. They r for sale 2 16 oz bottles for 25 bucks ...I'm sure he will do deals. I'm going to try to go back to buy a couple more. It says suppost to wax a car real good and remove swirls . It last up too 6 months. Www.pinkwax.net. if anyone goes buy some will work damn good! Ill post picks tomorrow ....

How do you know how good this stuff is? Most wax will appear good at first. You won't know how good it is until you see how durable it is. Also, 100% this wax will not remove swirls....it will only hide and mask them with fillers. Once the wax gets washed off, it will all be back again. Let us know in a motnh or two how durable this stuff is.

That's fine with me .. what I love the most was that I took about 20 min to clean one! Of my zr1s with the mothers ball and the mothers mag and aluminum polish ... and I use the pink was and took it off within 2 min ... I'm not saying this stuff is the best but I loved it just my opinion . I will for sure let u know within a month . I'm going back to the autoshow tomorrow to buy some more bottles see if I get a deal. Says its "suppost" to last 6 months rain or shine said the Guy lol but we will see. Will try to buff my car tomorrow and see if it last cause its suppost to be raining all next week just to put it to the test. But it already did a good thing with my wheels and that basically why I bought it .... I will try to post picks tomorrow ..

for me the two best are swissvax and butterwax. As for sealers i reccomend rejex. Ive used this on my cars and all my clients cars and i have to say with proper prep ie: compounding and swirl removal that the mentioned final waxes provide the best final protection and optics.

gotta watch those all purpose wax guys when your looking to buy the best. remember walking up on one that was mixing some killer chrome all metal polish in with this yellow wax the day the vendors were setting up. he was marketing it as a polish/wax. that pink/yellow boutique wax is only snake oil.

That wax has gone through many a name change. It used to be called Liquid Luster. It's not a terrible product, but it isn't great either. At one time it was believed to be manufactured by the same company that makes the pink Zaino polish wax. It was never proven, but they do have the exact same bottle and have the exact same look and smell.

It all depends on what you want done and the level of paint correction that is needed . It varies from car to car.
