Why do you use it and how often do you wax your G? My aftermarket paint is a lot better than the original black crap paint on my car (I'm not like the one dude I absolutely love my G but the paint that came on the 03's was terrible and I got mine new and waxed it at least 4 times per year) so I only wax about 3 times a year now. Did a ground up cleaning the other day even hydrauliced it up and did the underneath and inside of the wheels and all that. Used clay, conditioner, wax, and some other crap and it looks amazing right now (has been garaged the last few days because of the rain and the mud on the road from my neighborhood being new and all the construction). I use Meguire's products right now and am wondering what out there is better (I'm sure lots of things) as I want to keep my G until it falls apart or quits running.

Do a search for Zaino products on this site. You will be blown away by some of the results (pictures are in some of the threads too).

Zaino is not a wax by the way. You apply multiple coats once (lot of work, yes) and the results are good to go for a few years.

Right now I'm using Meguires NXT Tech paste wax. But I'm in the process of ordering some Collinite 845, which is supposed to be incredible. That, and some Klasse All In One to prep with!

+1 on the Tech Wax. It works quite well, but I find myself going through a lot of polishing towels because the wax build up on the towel and then it won't polish anymore.

I don't wash my car as often as I'd like (once a week). I probably get around to it once a month and I wax it just about every time (if I think it needs to be clayed, I'll wash it with dish detergent to remove some wax, then clay it, then wax it again).
