I'd say Collinite 885; or anything Collinite topped with Jetseal 109 but this thread is for OTC products not mail order/ online order.Something readily available. In most established cities.

this would prob just be mostly meguiars and mothers stuff....other stuff may be available through specialty shops...so for ppl asking about different types of products, this is just going to be stuff you're likely to see at stores like pep boys, kragen, target, walmart, etc. but different parts of the country have a variety of different products. for example clay magic can be found in some cities and in others its never heard of.

3M Performance Finish Wax...it is very easy to use, but how does the durability compare to NXT2.0 or Collinite stuff (although I know NOT OTC).

the 3m you are mentioning, i remember reading somewhere that the wax does not last long... it'll be gone withing a wash or 2.
