I'm in the process of finding just the right combination for my lineup, thanks for the input.

Oh, anyone ever used dodo juice? I've heard rave reviews about the supernatural wax but I doubt I have the know how to see 100$ worth of difference. How about menzerna polishes?
Megs M105 and M205 is part of their professional line. Although it is OTC (in some places) it is part of Meguiars "Professional" line and is meant for people who know what they're doing. Both are fabulous products and are very cost effective to alternatives such as Menzerna.

For my business I currently use Menzerna and have seen nothing but great results from it. Although the polishes are a bit pricey they last a long time because you don't have to use as much polish. Only a drop size can cover a good area.

They offer a wide selection but if you want to try them out all you really need is Menz Power Gloss, Menz Power Finish, and Menz Micro Polish (PO85rd). You can get by with those 3 but its always good to add others like Super Intensive Polish which is also superb.

Dodo Juice SN (supernatural) is a fabulous wax and if used correctly you can see a difference. You should check out Wolfgang Fuzion as its around the same price range but many have argued it shown better results. Although some argue otherwise. It's a toss-up between the two and again it'll come down to two things.

1. Preference
2. Preparation

Everybody has their preferences and finding a product that works well with you is key.

No matter what wax you buy at the end of the day it comes down to preparation. You could buy Supernatural, or even Swissvax Crystal Rock but if you didn't prep the surface properly you're only going to see sub-par results. So before you go about spending hundreds of dollars into waxes make sure you have mastered washing, claying, and polishing before you experiment with waxes.
