I used Maguiar's Gold Class car wax, works like a charm, and it smells beautiful too!

It was about $16 CDN for a normal sized bottle and an applicator (included).

I used Zaino. I was using Zymol but after seeing some Zaino'd cars and reading articles like this objective test I decided to go with Zaino.

It takes a bit of work the first go round, but after that, upkeep is a breeze. My MINI has never felt so smooth or had such a mirror finish. .

The whole kit including polish, gloss enhancer spray, tire shine etc ran me about $70. It only took 2 ounces to put 3 coats on, with a bit to spare. This kit should be good for a year or so at that rate.

Zaino is the product to use!

It's absolutely amazing. And no, I don't work for Zaino.
