If buying OTC (Walmart, etc.), you be much better with: Mother's SynWax Megs NXT 2.0 Turle Wax Platinum Ultra Gloss If you want better than these, buy Duragloss (Carquest) or Collinite 845 (Harbor Freight?). But, anything will be better than nothing. _________________________ 08 Mercury Mariner Premier V6 4wd 08 Ford Sport Trac XLT V8 2wd
