personal preference I posted a similar thread and it's basically comes down to whether you prefer hard or soft wax, get a panel pot of each and give it a go

Probably a hard wax will be best. Reduces the risk of over-application. Thin as possible is best.

I would say....Orange Crush OR Purple Haze Pro. Both are quite oily and give a better gloss enhancement over the "hard" waxes but the added bonus of Purple Haze Pro giving lover durability. As stated the other contender is SN, depends on how much you want to spend.....

Hi croy-91,

As a few people have said above, it's really about what type of wax you prefer and personal choice.

There is a guide on their website, among others, that gives detailed options of the best type of wax for lighter and darker coloured paintwork, such as your wicked red. Then as stated there are prep products on offer to use before hand and different types of wax dependant on what you like.

Have you used any waxes before or similar DJ products?

Why not

Try it and post your thoughts.
You can always try tester pots to save some money and see how you find each.
