Thats what I use to wax our Dana's!! It's amazing and very easy to use. I use the spray wax, but they also have a wax that you apply with a sponge and then just wipe right off!! Very easy!! I actually have some here at the shop....of course I don't know where you live but lemme know!

I only use Meguiars Professional #26 Carnuba. It comes in paste or squirt. One of the only waxes I have found that doesn't turn white :D . If it gets in areas you can't get it out of, it's not visible. Last just as long as any other wax I have tried. Works well hand or machine applied. Any automotive paint supplier will have the professional line. You can sometimes find it at AutoZone.

I agree with what Ken'swife said. Waxed once then when we take it out of the lake I use the spray frenzy and we are good to go. The stuff seems to last forever. I have only replaced the spray frenzy once and that is becuz I wanted one in the boat and one in the garage. :D

Why not one or two more...3M Marine wax does a very nice job. I also like Collinite paste a bunch but it's a fricken job on a 35 foot boat :(
Try and stay away from the cleaner/wax combos unless your looking for a quick clean and shine. The straight wax will leave a longer lasting, glossy finish.
I have a big expensive bottle of Frenzy that was used one time and not agian. Just my experience with it and others may have had better luck. It didn't last and was not as crystal clear as the others.
Have Fun.... :D
