Hereinthailand Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 Im looking for an online source or store to buy a good quality wax for my car. Nothing expensive just good quality (yeah I know nothing good is cheap) but its an older car with a good finish still on it and I dont mind redoing every so often to keep it clean.

Hereinthailand Posted July 28, 2017 Author Share Posted July 28, 2017 Yeah I only used meguiar's back home and lazada has decent prices on it, so might try some tesco first, I just want to keep it clean and easy to wash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they aint using any silicon removers before painting I'd take my car elsewhere but back on topic I buy Turtle wax from Hardware House, its 550b a tub.

MINIMIGLIA Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 Just get the guys at the car wash place to do it, so cheap and relaxing to have someone else do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For sure but it should be avoided as it is a cheap way of providing a shine...Just stick to regular formulas that are not that much more expensive....

Is Turtle Wax not a regular formula? Probably the best selling wax in the US for 50 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hereinthailand Posted July 28, 2017 Author Share Posted July 28, 2017 Turtle wax is another one I used alot before I will have to see if we have hardware house around here. Sorry but I dont have anything done here by locals, house repairs, car repairs - whatever had too many <deleted> mes after paying for botched work, luckily Im still able to do my own work and i know its done right and the way I want it the first time.

Yes it is a regular wax, l used it 50 years back too, but if they have added silicone in resent years then l would avoid it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAS21 Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 www.thaiwashercarclub.com is where many get their detailing stuff from. As an alternative get someone to bring you Autoglym HD Wax from the UK ...somewhat cheaper there ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hereinthailand Posted July 28, 2017 Author Share Posted July 28, 2017 Interesting I found pure carnuba wax on aliexpress, I wonder if a person could find a good formula to make his own wax ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C5VETTE Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 I like 3M car products. Good quality and price. I buy it from 3M's own shop on Lazada. http://www.lazada.co.th/shop-motors/3m-official-store/3m/?spm=a2o4l.sis-287.0.0.3dJIRG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GARYZX6R Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 Lazada gives you the best choice. Nu finish will last six months just don't get it on the plastic trim. Our big c sells it for 800baht a bottle. Otherwise megiures ultimate spray or paste is a good choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hereinthailand Posted July 28, 2017 Author Share Posted July 28, 2017 Meguiars is hard to beat and has a large range of products but mothers seems to be top choice among show car owners and high end waxes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hereinthailand Posted July 28, 2017 Author Share Posted July 28, 2017 Okay I went with the 3M marine grade car wax on lazada. Lazada gets more interesting as I use it pertaining to the amount of products they have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
