Hey guys, I just had to ask this question because I am really curious. I use Maguires the most and 3m or Mothers a few other times. I have heard so many good things from the s-series forum guys about Zaino Brothers waxes, but it is a little expensive. I will try it one day probably.

I did some Zaino about 2 months ago on mine. I just dusted the truck off, and here's a pic (it was taken to display the defective ford paint, which chips, but the rest looks great)

It's expensive, but always produces a show quality shine.

I am a big fan of meguires mirror glaze components. The regular meguires product are not that good in my opinion, get at least gold class if you go with them. I have also tried mothers, but they never really impresed me.

Umm... I just looked at the zainos brothers site, they didn't have any typ of wax on it. Everything on ther was a polish or cleaner. Am I missing something?

No you're not. Zainos makes polishes not waxes. I compared Mothers to Meguires in a side-by-side comparison and Meguires won. It had a deeper look and a better shine.

Well, it's not listed, but I've tried every wax on the shelf at Autozone, and the best I ever used was "Classic" brand. Has a pic of a hot rod on the front. That made my Ranger shine (as much as brown shines) more than any other wax I've tried. Very good stuff IMO...

Well, i've used meguiars for a long while, but I've heard A LOT of good things about Zaino, so I might try it. Hopefully it'll be worth the price :)

Just started using Meguiar's gold class, looks pretty nice to me. Still gotta try the detailer spray for between waxes.

I've been using Meguire's Gold Class for a couple years now and it works great. It makes the color very deep and rich looking but shiny also. I've also heard that Zaino is good stuff, but it's 5X as expensive and you have to apply a serious number of coats to get the best effect. At least thats what I hear.

I'm another who likes Meguire's Gold Class, but I'm surprised that no one has mentioned Zymol. I think it's very good, but it is more expensive than the Meguires. Unless it's made by the Zainos brothers some people mentioned, because I'm not familiar with that brand.

I use nothing but Maguire's Cleaner-Wax.
Works for me. Easy to use.
Makes my truck look nice.
Reasonable cost too.
