    TW-Platinum paste wax. NXT. There's a body shop supply store that carries a brand called Distinctive Details- Excalibur express wax. Looks really good. I think its meant for auto reconditioners but it looks great but i'm unsure about the durability. Its like $15 for a quart.

    NXT 2.0 can't be beat, especially at its ~ 15.00 price point. Another that looks and lasts is Pooboys EX.

    Hope this helps,

    I just went to Harbor Freight and picked up some Collinite 476S for $8 and change. Cannot beat that for cheap, yet great wax!

    Clearkote Carnauba Moose Wax and you also get good durability.

    Collinite and NXT are the cheapest I've found so far. Probably the best bang for the buck right now.

    My go to for a cheaper wax is Pete's 53. You can't beat the look and performance of it for the price.

    I really wouldn't consider Pete's 53 an inexpensive wax.

    IMO an inexpensive wax is one that costs less than $25. Finish Kare Pink Wax (#2685) is really a great product at a fantastic price (15 oz. tub for $17).

    Agreed. Nuba/Polymer blend go for Pink Wax. Synthetic go for 1000p. Both tins will last FOREVER.

    I'm another Collinite convert here. 845 or 476 are both awesome waxes with great durability. I put some 476 on my Allroad back in the beginning of May and it's still giveing good beading.
