This is what I've been using latley. It's affordable and easy to get almost anywhere, that's why I'm using it.

Turtle Wax Rubbing Compound
Turtle Wax Scratch and Swirl Remover
Turtle Wax Super Hard Shell (Liquid)


The results...

McGuire's i like the NXT paste wax but the best thing to get is their clay bar kit. Nothin like a smooth finish. Really clay baring makes a huge difference!

My SRT has never been waxed (I have Ziebart Diamond Gloss on it). Back in the 90's, I used a liquid from Blue Coral that I had seen on an informercial with Dennis Weaver. It was called Fomblin A or something like that. I always had good results but the product was discontinued (I bought the last bottles they had at either Meijer or Wal-Mart- can't remember which- when they were on the clearence rack).

I have used zaino products on the goat, and they are the best period. The shine is just so deep that it makes new cars ashamed. I would never waste money and put in on my neon, it wouldn't be worth it.
