Touch Up Paint and Wax Question...

Guys I need some touch up paint to try and patch up a little hail damage from this last week...also I have a question about wax, what kinda wax do you guys use? I used MGuires(sp) last time, it looked good but didn't seem to stay on too long and was a pain in the butt to wipe off once applied...anyone use the liquid wax? How is it? I'm thinking this once every 6 months stuff isn't enough, and if I switch to the liquid wax it wont be nearly as time consuming and I'll be able to do it more like every 3 months or so...I've seen commercials for some new stuff from turtle wax and a couple other places...recommendations?

I HIGHLY recommend you give Zaino a try

I know it's "raved" about alot on this board, but it works! I've used Meguire's, along with many other waxes, and nothing holds up like Zaino.

I detail cars on the side, and I haven't had a customer yet who hasn't commented on how great their car looks after I "Zaino them". They have also commented how after a rainfall, their cars are clean again

Others may recommend other waxes, and some are good, but in my opinion, nothing beats Zaino.

Touch up paint can be bought at the dealership GM parts counter, they just need your paint code number and will order you a bottle of touch up paint. Most all waxes now come in liquid form only, just a few paste waxes left on the market........

That was the original reason I switched.
