Best polish/wax for SVX?

Do you have a favorite polish/wax/cleaner you use on your SVX?

Is there a wax that works best on both the black roof/trunk and steel body?

I have a silver and black SVX.

I use Turtle wax ICE liquid wax and love it. As for a hand glaze I use Farecla Black Top hand glaze which wrks beautifully on black and other colors.

Re: Best polish/wax for SVX?

I like Meguiar's NXT wax. Easy on and off with great shine. Used it on my PackaSport pod for the wagon and could hardly hold onto it!! Try it, you'll like it!!

use it here too, after claybar....
My Brat likes the stuff, so does the SVX.
If I am at work and it rains in the morning, my car is the only one in the afternoon with water still beaded up on the hoods, etc.
