Recommend a "can't miss" wax please

If I had to pick one wax to take with me onto a desert island, it would be RBOE. Hands down.

 

Thanks Karl. Like I have nothing else to do but try my RBOE this weekend. Damn you!

 

Ken, did you just get RBOE? I did too, so I have to try it, but when, I'm not sure.

Maybe I will next weekend on a white MB. I wonder how it would look over a layer of Werkstat AJT?

 

It doesn't look like the guy has any Rubbish in stock.?

 

He doesn't sell Any of the Rubbish Boys stuff. It has to ordered from Rubbish Boys in the UK. Ben is a good guy and the service is great.

 

Rubbish Boy's Original Edition

He will probably be cooking up a batch soon.

 

I'd vote Lusso Oro.... but I don't own RBOE... it's my next wax to buy

 

I'm going to be different and suggest Finish Kare 1000P topped with Finish Kare's Pink Wax.

 

I just tested Pete's 53 on top of a layer of Collinite 845 and Opti-Seal and I was amazed. 845 will make metallics pop, but the Pete's 53 increased this effect and also gave it a nice glow. I wish I had taken pics. I tried it on my dad's 08 Accord (metallic green).

 

Anyone tried Rubbish Boy's Juiced Edition?

1000P on Wet Mirror Finish looks fantastic on Metallics. Hoping to put a coat of Pink Wax on tomorrow.

 

Hmm, haven't tried 1000P over WMF. Thanks for the tip!

 

Havn't read this yet throughout the posts, but you need to have a great deal of patients with RBOE, it take a little while to learn how to get the wax to work in your favor, just a little fyi..

 

for metallics i guess rboe and petes 53 are ones that get recommended time and time same with midnight sun ( I didnt really like that one)

 

But once you get it down, after an application or two, it goes fast and as fast as any other wax. :afro:

 

I totally agree here! It looked great on my Flamenco Black Pearl Integra.

Although I still haven't used my new pot of RBOE yet, haha. I guess that'll be something I'll be doing at the beginning of next year. Right now my car's on the Meg's #16 treatment for the California "winter", haha. :

 

Whilst on the topic of waxes, Ken what is your opinion on the RG range (55 & 42)?

 

My personal favorite is Race Glaze. Fantastic stuff.

 

I have. It's a great wax - excellent even. And, as the Dodo Juice website says, it's considerably more "mainstream" as far as ease of application is concerned. I still prefer RBOE, by a pretty wide margin. I sold my RBJE to littlemissGTO right here on DB. I liked it a lot, I just never used it. RBOE is my automatic choice for a "can't miss" 'nuba, so my JE was going unused.

For something completely different - try RBOE over top of Jetseal on a white car. It'll make it look like whipping cream. Sensational!

 

Zymol Concours (a tad over the target price, but very near so consider it!), Glasur or Carbon; Victoria, or Pinnacle Souveran are my recommends.
