What’s your favorite spray wax
Hi all,
I’ve playing around with Adam’s and Griot’s spray wax. I want to buy something in bulk now since I use this stuff so much (after every wash). What do you use?
my car: 991.2 white C2S with clear bra, no nano coating/etc
thanks!!

I've not used a spray wax, but when I was browsing around reading reviews and looking for product recommendations I saw Optimum (available by the gallon) getting a lot of high praise. If you're looking to buy in bulk (spend money) why not look at something like Gtechniq C2v3? It's a spray on / wipe off product like these spray waxes, but it's nano-particle based. It's not the same ceramic you get in a nano coating, but it is silicon. It leaves you with a more hydrophobic surface and one application will last a lot longer than your standard waxes.

that’s a good suggestion. I’ll look into it. How often do you apply something like that?

I use Optimum spray wax on my daily driver. It's easy to apply and seems to work well enough. When this bottle runs out, I'd like to try one of the new spray on wipe off products. They seem to be easier to use and last longer.

I haven't started using it yet, but I intend to. They say it lasts up to 8 months, but it's designed as a top coat for an actual nano / ceramic base coat. I don't know if it lasts longer or shorter when it's the base / only coating. Once I start using it my plan is to apply 3 times per year on my daily driver and just 2 times on the Porsche. I don't wash and wax during the winter, so to protect the daily drivers I figure every 3-4 months during spring, summer, and fall should build up enough layers to last the 5-6 months of winter. March / July / October is my plan. My Porsche gets covered and stored from late October until April. If I coat it in April when the cover comes off it should be good all summer. Then a fresh coating before the cover goes on should just add layers as it won't see any sun or debris to degrade during the winter. Over time it should build up and last / protect longer.
I do have an existing nano coating on the Porsche (Gtechniq Crystal Serum Light). The hydrophobic properties are significantly better than the Klasse sealing glaze I use on my other cars. Most of the time the Porsche only needs a wash and dry to be sparkling clean. This is why I am going to switch from the polymer sealant and wax to the nano based coating. The same or less work, better water and dirt shedding properties, and longer lasting.

I just bought a bottle of Gtechniq C2v3 Liquid Crystal. I plan to spray it on top of my Zymol wax and see what happens. Even if I have to spray it once a month, and it lengthens my wax life while keeping my paint safer, I will be happy.

I’ve tried several different spray waxes over the years and I still lean towards a very high quality quick detail spray which is enhanced with carnauba. My absolute favorite quick detail is Pinnacle Crystal Mist, I buy it by the gallon and use it to maintain the carnauba wax on my Porsches. Another great quick detailer is chemical guys P40 carnauba.
