It wasn't expensive last year I think I paid around $35 for the Z-PC (Paint prep)and Z-2 PRO (polish)

That's all I use and need, you can go with even more stuff for a better shine. I'm quite happy with the results I get and you seen the pics of my Bullitt.

I've done the 1-2-3 step from Meguiar's and Mothers for the work and time involved they can't touch Zaino.

What ever you do make sure you clay bar your car before prepping and waxing!!

I like autoglym paste wax. It lasts a long time.

Any Carnauba wax will do. As some of the other guys mentioned I always had my best reuslts with Mothers and Meguiars. It always depended on which one was cheaper at Canadian Tire. If you're using wax with some other sort of chemical polish you have to be really careful if you have decals because some of those chemicals will destroy them over a short period of time. I used to own an '81 Honda CBX and all I used to wax it was furniture polish. Yes that's right, furniture polish goes on easy, dries clear so you don't get white residue in cracks, and it doesn't harm decals. Pledge is only made from carnauba wax and is non-toxic. The only reason I don't use it now is that on the bike it didn't take long to wax it every time I washed it and I was never sure how long it lasted. At least with car wax I know it lasts at least a couple of months. Anyway Mothers, Meguiars and Turtlewax are great and relatively easy on the wallet.

I'd have to agree with any Meguiar's Product or the Autoglym both are fantastic!

Meguires for sure. No, maybe Autoglym. I've heard Zaino is great. Turtle Wax Ice, that's the ticket. No way, go Armour All wax. Hey what about Mother's ? Autofinesse is the way to go. Simonize rules the street. Liquid wax rules, but spray wax is so easy. Paste wax is the only old school way to go. There you go, there's the best wax right there.

I have had best success with Croftgate products for ease of use, long lasting, simple.
