Default Red and black rangers

Have you guys ever tried a wax called Phase II? I got some a while ago and the stuff is amazing! Its specifically designed for red and black clearcoated paintjobs.

Hmmmm, specifically for two colors, and only touches the clear coat? How does that work? Oh yeah, marketing!

Don't want to rain on anyone's parade here, but there is no such thing as a wax made specifically for a certain color. All a wax does is create a layer of CLEAR protection (the various ingredients add shine) over your clear-coat. The reason why darker cars might look more appealing to the eye then lighter cars, is well, our eyes are playing a trick on us. The deeper colors will obviously look much cleaner, where silver and white can have a great shine, but can lack the depth. Same goes for "color" waxes.

If you like the product, then by all means continue to use it. That's what I always tell anyone that asks me about detailing products.... if it works for you, you have used it with great success, then why change? The part about it not leaving streaks, probably means that it's just an easier product to work with, or you wax your truck regularly.
