For your color car 3M is gonna be the best. Its a synthetic blend. Carnuba waxes are best on dark colors like black and red (give you the deep look) You want brilliant reflection and sparkle. 3M. My car is red so I go with Meguiars carnuba.

BTW it is not the wax that gives you a great shine. Its prep work. Its the cleaner and polish that give you shine! Not wax, wax only protects and enhances the polish.

you all take you zaino wax and let I'll put you to shame with 3M or Meguiars.

I just got some zaino wax. Looks great, and btw, the zaino wax is also a cleaning wax so in this case the wax does bring the shine.

Yeah you're right it was a cleaner wax. I made a mistake, it was actually zymol not zaino wax. The stuff looks great.

I've been extremely happy with S100. It can be found at a Harley Davidson dealership. Also pick up some of their SEC(shine enhancement cleaner). My process is to clay when necessary, DACP, S100 SEC, Meguiars Show Polish (#7) and then follow with S100 wax.
