Neither. 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.

Duragloss 101 is easy to use, looks like a mirror, and lasts a long time. I wouldn't waste my money or my time with either Kit or regular TW, both suck.

Replys are correct. Myself, I use Megs NXT 2.0 then seal with Megs Ultimate Quik Detailer. Lasts and lasts. Both are very easy to apply.

Add Collinite 476s to your wax choices. Don't bother with the Kit or Turtle wax. If gloss and durability are what you are looking for, 476s is above and beyond the waxes you are considering.

If you want a 3rd rate product just pick the cheapest available at big lots and have at it.

Good luck.

I use the wax that the gas station carwash uses.
