Default Whats the best Wax for a White car?

im currently using poorboys blue, and its a REALLY good wax. Even though its designed for dark cars, its makes my white cars look very bright.

Are there any other good waxs worth trying as i need to buy some more now

Cheers!

Yes it does mate, you can buy the bits separate like i have. I will use Collinite No.845 as my top coat wax as its very hard wearing and gives a deep shine.

OCW is fine as a finishing wax on whites/silvers - it can be all you need used over a sealant

Diamond White, K-Plate original paintwork, 109k, all weathers - polishing with CK VMG, then two coats of EX-P, 3 coats of OCW:
