Do I Need Natty's Paste Wax?

I have been collecting detailing products for the past few years and have yet to really run a bottle of one product totally dry..I guess I just get kinda amped reading about some new product and then cant control myself from buying it.



I currently have in my LSP collection:



4* UPP

PB EX-P

P21S

NXT Tech Wax



Its not that I dont love the above products (well the NXT has little to no durability)...I am just wondering if Nattys Paste Wax is going to blow me away in comparison to my other LSPs....



I pretty much exclusively use P21S on the M3 (its a dark blue..lighter than navy)



If anyone can give me any of their opinions or comparisons I would love to hear them before visiting AutoGeek again. :woot:
 
Try the Natty's Blue before the regular. I think it would definitely be worth the money to give it a shot!



Optimum Wax would be another must have.

I guess I had been looking at the blue when I was searching for it...thanks. OCW is the spray wax..right? I have heard the durability of that is a bit lacking but the shine is nuts..is that what you have found to be true?



Thanks.

Wow thats exactly what I do... I never use a whole bottle of anything... I just ordered OCP and OCC yesterday b/c I kept reading about how good they worked haha. Never use up my products just keep buying new ones, which is a bad habit for a poor college student.



UPP is Four Star Ultimate Paint Protection, its a sealent that is suppose to be super slick and works well on light colored cars.

I also really liked the results it provided on another Avus Blue M3 that I detailed for a friend.



My favorite on Reds and Imola Red (BMW Red) in particular has to be the EX-P..it was utterly amazing..
 
I have found UPP better on darks........OCW is amazing on anything. As for durability, its really not an issue, and is as good as they get, with the exception of Klasse.

Patrick,



Are you saying that the OCW's durability is as good as it gets?

I love Klasse AIO, but didnt really fall in love with the SG... :think:

I think I might end up ordering some OCW, Nattys, and a jar of Wheel Wax..



Any more opinions are more than welcome and appreciated.
 
I do love Natty's (only used the original version so far). Very durable and slick.



More suggestions?



Here you go.



FK1 #2180 sealant topped with FK1 Pink Wax or FK1 #1000 Paste wax



Every recommendation so far is top notch quality - you can't really go wrong.

OCW is a lot more durable than you would expect a spray product to be. Besides, despite it being a thin liquid, you could probably pour it on a pad and apply conventionally and the product isn't any thinner than Klasse SG or Glanz Wax, both of which are very durable products. Seriously, don't let the application method fool you.



Natty's Blue has a wetter look than P21S/S100 and is about as reflective too.

Thankyou...I dont think it was the application method that was throwing me off...I dont know where, but I thought I had heard it was sort of only Okay..more of a Gloss enhancer than a true wax..

Optimum Car Wax is a true stand alone LSP. Got a full three months out of it over Clearkote's RMG on a Lexus SC430 that is garaged at night and parked in the full sun all day. Still beading well when I rewaxed it at the owner's request.
 
Patrick,



Are you saying that the OCW's durability is as good as it gets? Not necessarily as good as it gets, or we all wish it to be, but it is as good as the rest. And "rest" being most of the others that are commonly discussed here.

I love Klasse AIO, but didnt really fall in love with the SG... :think: Same feeling here, I like AIO, or liked rather, i really dont have a use for it anymore...And I have some SG (Probably 2/3 of the bottle) if someone wants to swap with me for something I may not have....

I think I might end up ordering some OCW, Nattys, and a jar of Wheel Wax..



OCW is extremely easy to use, and please keep in mind, its not a quick detail spray, although there are some using it that way. I just feel it gets a bad rap having been described as being able to use as such.....It certainly is a more credible product .....

Sure - www.fk1usa.com - very durable products btw.

Thanks for the link..I am on their site checking it out now. The pricing looks great (2x the quantity for the same price as Nattys)...



But how would you compare the shine/wetness/deepness of the Pink Wax and 1000 Paste Wax to Nattys Blue or P21S?



I dont do more than 2 professional details a month..so I dont necessarily need to buy in bulk to save..and more am just looking for the best products on the market. (I pretty much do detailing on the side to pay for products for use on my own cars)



I havent heard too much about the FK products...but am obviously willing to try out something new...
 
Finish Kare's waxes and sealants are absolutely outstanding! I'm using the Pink regularly over #2180 sealant, and the results are amazing. Easy to work with and the only downside is the smell. (Which is awful - but technologically it cannot be scented.) Nevertheless, FK makes two of the most durable pastes ever and their appearance is top notch too. The sealants are also great, providing a warmer look than typical (especially the #218). #2180 is more reflective and is a great product to use along with the Pink Wax. They create wetness, depth, definition and very sharp reflections.
