5 Star Shine is so durable that it will last beyond 150 car washes. Here is some good info regardingclay bars.

RAIN X wax is the best wax I've ever used, and trusts me when I say I have tried them all, rainX wax goes on very easy, leaves no mess, removes very easily whith NO residue, shine great and most importantly, repels water, dust...

There are a ton of great waxes out there. You just have to know where to look. There is no single "best wax". Each person has different qualities thay want in a wax. Some like gloss, others like depth. Some want wetness, other like durability. Wal-Mart, Autozone, etc are not the only places you need to go to for your wax. I'm using the term 'wax' very generally. I am lumping in sealants in the same category for simplicity.

I use a lot of different products. Zaino is very good. It doesn't do anything for swirls, but it gives a very nice look and unrivaled durability. Klasse is another excellent sealant this looks a bit warmer than Zaino, but has almost the same durability.

My "arsenal" consists of products from Meguiar's, Clearkote, Poorboy's, Klasse, Zaino, Four Star Ultimate, Pinnacle, Wolfgang and a few others. I am a little more concerned with car care than the average joe, so of course I will have more stuff. For the average person looking to wax just once in a while and isn't really critical on looks, a lot of over the counter products will work just fine. Meguair's NXT Tech Wax, #16 or #26 would be great. Even Liquid Glass will work fine. It all comes down to personal preference and standards.

My arsenal. This was taken over the winter and it has expanded since then.

Try Rain X wax, you won't believe how easy it goes on and off, you'll never go back to any other product, I know I won't.

I have still been using Meguiar's NXT soap and wax....still no complaints from me.
Quite a few looks from the locals, but I doubt it is because of the wax...lol

I detail cars for a living, and use mostly products from Malco and Car Brite, which are not usually sold retail, they are taylored for "professionals." But, hell you have more stuff on that shelf than I have in my shop! lol
