what should i buy? meguiars cleaner wax (paste), meguiars Deep Crystal Wetlook Cleaner Wax, meguiars Deep Cristal Carnauba Wax?

Updated: 09 Dec 2024

actually i need to make the car look better, fix a bit the oxidized paint.
i know i should use clay bar, polish, and use a cutting compound to do a good job, but i don’t have the money to buy everything, so wax should work for the moment i think untill i have money to buy all i need.

all i have are microfiber towels so i will use them to apply the wax (but cleaner wax looks like it comes with an aplicator pad)

it’s hard to see in the picture, but that’s the problem

thanks in advance

Wax is going to do absolutely nothing for oxidised paint.

well at least the rest of the car will look good.
what wax do you recomend? i’m currently out of wax, i have to buy more wax

You’ll need compound to take care of oxidation. Cleaner wax is more for very light scratches.
Try to find Meguiar’s Gold Class Carnauba wax. I’ve never used it, but I’ve heard it’s very good. If it’s near as good as Meguia’rs Mirror Glaze hi-tech yellow wax, it’ll do a great job!

thanks for your advice, i will try cleaner wax i think because the car have some light scratches .
instead of buying more expensive wax, i could save for compound to take care of oxidation (gold class carnauba wax is actually more expensive than compound + aplicator pad)

and before using compound i should clay the surface first?
