- Today we test 8 different waxes all marketed to have a superior shine. We first use a grease and wax remover, then apply the wax, buff the wax, spray them with water and see how they bead water. The results were very surprising to us. Koji Tip Jar koji.to/k/7T6m

I am 70 years old and have used only a few different types of waxes. At my age I am looking for durable and easy to apply waxes.
I used to detail cars professionally and I started thinking that all these companies are selling us is fancy packaging and adjectives. I told my wife a few months back that I’m going back old school. Dawn dish washing liquid, windex, turtle wax and armor all.
It's all a waste of money and time
I have used Nu Finish for a very long time. Its cheap, it goes on in any light and (most importantly) if buffs out super easily.
Wait. Nu finish is polish, why are you calling it wax?
Consumer Reports rated New Finish as the wax with the best over all protection (it lasts the longest says CR) Although New Finish didn’t provide the best shine. I actually bought New Finish and think it’s ability to still bead up on my car nine months later is impressive. Especially being my car is parked outside year around in the Colorado climate.
The most important observation is which lasts longer? I have purchased so many modern spray waxes but the paste wax still seems to last. About 4 months I use meguiars cleaner wax. 50 years old and somehow seems to still work the best as far as lasting the longest. That's weird to me so I do keep watching videos and keep trying new stuff.
Love to wax also I am not ready to throw waxing on the side and go on ceramic coating yet. It’s just fun little more maintenance
I use Johnson"s Pledge spray wax on my 2022 Corvette Stingray. I have won first prize at car shows , using this product as part of my detailing arsenal. Car wax manufacturers have bamboozled most car owners
I use Nufinish. It goes on and off easy and leaves a great shine and a slickness that makes me swipe the car every time I pass it. Plus I find the process very therapeutic and the result very satisfying.
thank you for testing 8 different waxes & getting to see them
I start with a paste wax, but then I follow it up with 🐢 wax 'Ice' spray wax. This has always given my vehicles a deeper/wetter look when compared to using just one or the other.
Fantastic video! No BS. Thanks for posting. 👍
I have been a professional detailer for about 3 years now but really kicked it up a notch this past year and I also had to play around and test many product to find my best application and for wax applications, turtle wax high gloss spray mist has actually done a great job for me but I do switch it up sometimes I like new finish And the ones u tried, I use chemical guys occasionally but I think it’s has a lot to do with the age, condition and paint type of vehicle at the end of the day
Appreciate the care you you took for a scientific method! The problem here is that the paint was in poor condition and the only wax that would work well would be the Meguiars cleaner wax, which also contains polishing agents.
Thank you so much for making this video 👌👌👌 been using nu finish and don't see why use another one if it's super easy to apply and can do 3-4 times a year (that's just me) 🤪 thanks again 👍🔥👌💪👈
I use Turtle wax because that is what my father used when I was growing up so it is what I have the most experience with.
Thanks for the No Spin honest test
I think the real test is to see which one lasts the longest. Like a water test 1 month later. Tyvm for the video👍
Thank you for review :)
