Classic/Antique Car Repair: wax and UV protection, zymol wax, auto parts stores


Question
Dick,

What would be a good wax to protect the clear coat and finish on an 84 cad. in California near the beach?

Thanks

Answer
I think the Zymol wax sold at Costco and other auto parts stores gives the most long lasting protection.   Nu-Finish is a little cheaper, and also does very well.  They are both easy to put on, but  you must have a clean car to start with, and work out of the sun.  Follow the directions carefully with the Zymol - this stuff is a little tricky.

Dick.
