Re: Which Wax to choose ?
^^rain water, sun and washing will degrade your wax, it's normal so don't stress, waxes also need time to harden, you can build up say 4-5 coats of wax over 10 days then you are good for at least 6 months.

More than 98 percent of convicted criminals are bread eaters !
Statistics show that more than 75 % of violent crimes are committed within 24 hours of eating bread !
Bread is known to be extremely addictive. Subjects deprived of bread and given only water, actually begged for bread after just two days !
Bread has been proven to kill. Scientists have now uncovered alarming evidence that 100% of the people who eat bread will eventually die !Comment

Really?Originally posted by stefanm View Post
Its raining here almost every day.Every time I wax and shine, the bike gets on the rain water
And becomes dull.
I think I will have to coat multiple times and leave for months.
Any way I am using a cheap liquid wax which cost about 100 indian rupees.It gives a really good shine but easily gets washed away.
Will try some branded one and see.
Thanks.

Keep it out the rain and use a proper wax, like Maguires or Autoglym etc, you'll see the difference.

Re: Which Wax to choose ?
From my little experience...
If you use a wax like Collinite 850, it withstands SEVERAL RAIN (read more than 2-3 months), including dirt. The surface will look dirty, but then, 1 wipe with clean water & other clean up using any waterless wash (like ONR) restores the surface to shine. I've tested this for more than 2+ years now & it has been consistently proven (with Collinite 850) that the wax can with stand for 2-3 months, though Collinite says protection lasts for 6 months.
I'm yet to test with other brands of wax, though I personally like to test Collinite 476, which they say is a permanent wax, which lasts for a year!!
The wax surface can be removed only by using a hard shampoo which that more pH value, pressure water wash (not rain even when riding at very high speeds)
Why go to shop when you can buy most of the stuff online delivered to your door step that too at prices less than MRP?Originally posted by Tushar Suvarna View PostCan any one let me know about places in Mumbai where i can buy either of the mentioned WAX ( Turtle , Formula 1 , meguiars wax etc ) and other accessories like MF cloth ,polishers etc .
