I love M21. I've always got great results with it.

Re: the best meguairs wax to you

That is a hard one. My top 3 (in no order) are NXT, M26, and ColorX.

Re: the best meguairs wax to you

I like #21... Cant wait to use it all up and get some #21 2.0.

Re: the best meguairs wax to you

I like 26 and 21, got a bottle of NXT 2.0 I can't wait to try and have bottles of GC and old version of NXT. I own some 16 that I can't wait to try on my step son's pickup truck which is single stage paint. I also have ColorX. I use UQD to maintain the wax between waxing.

For me it's 21, 26 & 16.

Re: the best meguairs wax to you

My favorites are M20 Polymer Sealant and M16 Paste Wax.

M20 Polymer Sealant is EASY to remove, lasts and lasts, and has a mild cleaner for removing mild amounts of dirt and oxidation. It leaves a clear and glossy finish.

M16 Paste Wax, although discontinued in the US, is still available if you look around. Get a tin of it, use it sparingly, and one can will last you years! It is an 'old school' wax, carnauba-based, so you'll appreciate the clarity & durability of it. Better have your paint in tip-top shape though, because it doesn't hide defects well (compared to say, #26 or NXT Tech Wax), and it contains no heavy cleaners.

However, at SEMA, the Meguiar's/Ford SEMA Team always uses NXT Tech Wax, as it offers speed of application and removal, slickness, durability, and incredible darkening ability & gloss. NXT Tech Wax is no slouch, and I understand why it's a favorite for many enthusiasts.


If you want to try a carnauba and can't find M16 (or don't want to pay the increased price for it), try M26 Hi-Tech Yellow Wax. A22 Deep Crystal Wax is great, too, so is G70 Gold Class...! SO MANY GOOD ONES!

Re: the best meguairs wax to you

I enjoy #20 and #26 applied in that order.

Re: the best meguairs wax to you

I really like the NXT 2.0 but the old trusty #21 topped with #26 is really good on dark colors. I going to get some NXT 2.0 paste and #21 2.0 as soon as I can. Like I need any more wax..

Re: the best meguairs wax to you

#21, #26 and NXT

[Patman]

Re: the best meguairs wax to you

For me it was #21 until NXT 2.0 came out! Now that's by far my new favorite.

Re: the best meguairs wax to you

I use #21. I've used Cleaner Wax, Gold Glass before "turning pro". Actually, that's before using the pro-line, as I'm still a rank amatuer.

My daughter just bought a brand new 2008 Honda CR-V in black. I'm anxious to see how #21 does with that. The dealer did a nice job on the prep, but I think I may need to do a pass with #80 and the PC prior to waxing. Clay for sure, but probably a good polish too since it's black. A test spot will answer that.

Re: the best meguairs wax to you

#21 topped with #26. In between Express Wax (DLine)
My favorite and most dramatic difference in depth would have to be #21 hand down! I get complements every time I take my car out.

Re: the best meguairs wax to you

No love for #6? I have an old bottle left, and I wanna check it out, but honestly, I don't remember how well it worked.
