A friend of mine gave me a jar P21S wax. I had never heard of it before. I don't want to put it on my car without some endorsement. I use Rejex now.

Thanks

 

I have been waxing for a long time and have not heard of it. Try it out on somthing else first.

 

P21S is one of the most popular "high-end" natural waxes. The wheel cleaners and window cleaners that Porsche sells are made by P21S. It won the Guru Reports Wax Test among non-synthetics. The only wax that beat it in the test was Zaino. The test was pre-Regex, though. P21S is a great wax, goes on easy, comes off easy, doesn't leave chalky marks on rubber, etc. It's not Turtle Wax in popularity (and thank heavens not in quality), but it's a great wax. I have not used Zaino because it takes so many steps, but I may try that one day. I also use Klasse which is an excellent synthetic wax. Rejex is another top synthetic wax. You can put a natural wax over a synthetic wax, but not the other way around. Sometimes, I put a synthetic wax (Klasse) first which is more durable, and then put P21S on top which has a nicer look, feel, better beading, etc.

 

arenared has got it right. P21S is excellent carnuba wax. It is my all time favorite. I also use Klasse AIO as a base or Zaino if I have 2 days, but always finish with P21S. I have used Rejex as well and always come back to P21S as a last coat...no waiting to dry. Try it you'll like it!

 

Thanks,
Thats all I needed. I'll try it and post.

 

Ditto, P21S stuff are awesome. I also use Rejex.

 

I've been using P21S wax (and their other products) for over nine years. Great stuff.

 

P21S is the best natural wax. Probably best overall eye popping shine and depth. However, more of a show car shine than durable. Here in Florida, with the heat and sun the natural waxes dont hold up well. so I too use the Klasse all in one and then put on their Sealant as well. to my eye on a yellow car seems like same shine. But since synthetic and actually bonds to paint instead of sit on it, it lasts much longer (like it really matters to me anyway I am waxing this thing all the time anyway!!).

to tell the truth I have recently been using Meguirars NXT, synthetic, simple, and awesome.

Griots!

This will sound like a plug, but it is not. I have used this stuff on all my personal cars and long before iA was around. We bugged them recently to become a test dealer since they didn't allow anyone to resell their product. It has been on the market for a while now. I got wind of it when I was at Pebble Beach and had never heard of it.

 

I'm with Tom... PS21 is a great wax... But in Florida it does not last at all... I love and use their car wash... I use Zaino and if you do it once the next times are easy.. It is not a two day process any longer... If you use their product that helps the polish dry you can do coats back to back.... I have used Klasse also but went back to zaino.... Many people put zaino, rejex or Klasse on and finish off with a coat of PS21 to bring out the depth... I would do this for a show.

 

My experience matches the above - Great Garage Queen Wax (especially on dark colors) but durability is well below other options.

 

Griots is good stuff. If car paint has some roughness to it clay bar it first and then griot it. You will not be dissapointd. It is a bit tougher to take off that PS21 though.

 

I also use the Maguire’s. I never herd of these other brands. In sunny So. Cal, wax does not hold up so once a month is the routine. My black S600 is a pain to wax and keep clean. Any suggestions on black paint? Black always shows marks if the sun is hitting it at the right angle. Looks great at night.

 

Robert if you are a Mequires fan then try the synthetic NXT, it really is awesome!! Also you will do away with the monthly routine.

 

I start with a good polymer base (either Klasse or Zaino)...last coat is always P21S on Black....stuning
