Nu Finish

not so much for my chevy but for the other cars in my life ( my chevy hasnt got paint to wax its decked out in primer and rust) which are a toyota corolla and a ford f 150 is nu finish an ok wax to use. Im not looking for a showroom shine just something to protect the paint from bird stuff and all. also if they dont bead water do i have to have em polished before i wax em?or can i just run en through the car wash and then wax it?

Re: Nu Finish

I used nufinish for years on my NY beaters. That and never dull seemed to work well for that type of need.

bob wash then wax if you use a crap ass wax and want it to last through the winter throw some meguires on it in the fall too.. NY beaters are a whole different breed of vehicles.

Re: Nu Finish

I have used every kind of wax and polish known to man. Nufinish is a very good polish in fact its all i use now. Nufinish is a polish only, you will need to protect the polish with a good wax. I use Miguires wax after polishing.
