Best wax to use on new paint.

So i just got a new paint job back in late sep and ill be doing my first wax job on the new paint sometime in the end of novemberor early dec. I was just wondering what the best looking and safest wax is to use on a new paint job. Is the meguiars 3 step process any good. LMK what you guys think.

The line of Zaino products is the best I've found in 35 years and trying dozens of products.

Yeah i have heard Zanio is the best but im looking for a wax to put on before the winter months to help protect the paint from road salt and stuff.

Re: Best wax to use on new paint.

Then you want Zaino. It lasts for months instead of a few weeks.

No, it's better than a wax.

Re: Best wax to use on new paint.

If it is wax that you are looking for that will produce (arguably) the best or optimal results, then you should investigate pure wax products such as P21S, zymol, or pinnacle.

If price is an object, then look for a meguiars or mothers pure wax product that should be widely available in retail stores.

Re: Best wax to use on new paint.

Zaino is, if you want to think of it this way to help your perception, a synthetic wax. You are putting too much thought into the word "wax", there are many products that will protect the paint other than carnauba wax.
