    I haven't used many waxes but the last one I bought is freaking awesome. It's Collinite Fleetwax, it's a wax for boats (so it stands up to water a LONG time). Y'all should give it a try and tell me what you think, it was about $25 for a can of it. You really need to read the directions on how to apply it first...you pretty much apply it and take it off in about 15-30 seconds.

    I think around 3 months after the wax job was when the water stopped beading on my hood.

    This was my last attempt with Meguairs. I am happy with the end result but these pads are crappy. I am slowly converting to Adams. My next purchase will be the $200 wax/polish kit with pads. What all do you have??

    Thanks for the comments guys

    Oh and got MOST of the rubber off for you Ducky. Luckily for me your truck doesn't make enough power to cake it on.

    I bought the Porter Cable kit with the 2 compounds and sealer, it's the cat's ass. But the polisher doesn't have enough balls for the bad bad stuff. Better to go up to the Flex kit for that I think. I use the Americana wax, and love it. I have the Brilliant Glaze for just a quick job after I wash it. I dunno if you paid any attention to my truck at SAR but it hasn't been polished since last spring, or waxed last fall. I just got it handwashed when I was down there and then threw some BG and on it.

    The Super VRT is nice, on everything Vinyl Rubber and Trim. The leather/interior cleaner is the best I've ever used. And I buy the detail spray and all purpose cleaner by the gallon.
