Car Wax Recommendation V70-XC70 2000

Do you have any recommendations on car wax that will make my car very shiny and hopefully protect the finish.

    Its not just that easy........you need to think about other things first. Here are some of them......What condition is your paint in now? What part of the country do you live in?

    Do you park inside at night?

    Do you have alot of time to spend on detailing, or do you want to give up some shine qality for longer lasting wax?

    How much do you want to spend?

    you should go over to www.autopia.com they have a forum over there and you can get all the info you need.

    You can also get there form www.carcare.com

    OH.....I use Pinnacle Souveran wax on my car.

    I used to use zymol "volvo wax" but the Souveran is much better!

      Good questions! I assumed that since he had a new car, his paint would be in excellent condition, requiring only minor work to get off tar, tree wax, etc., before waxing.

    I use a 3M polish on the rough spots (tree wax) and 3M wax to finish the job twice a year on my black wagon. Almost all of the swirls go away and the paint is very deep. Nobody believes it's got over 100k miles on it, and I've had several people come up to me to talk about the car. The problem with 3M products is they are difficult to find. I get them at www.autosupermart.com.

    Car waxes are like religion, everyone thinks theirs is the best. Meguiars #26 is hard to beat in my opinion. Use #6 if you leave your car outside at night and don't use a car cover.

    I use Zymol car wax. It rated the best in Consumer Reports. Also, I have used Mother's Calif Gold Cleaner Wax. You want a wax that has Carnuba in it.

    Best of Luck
