Ive tried Collinite 916 so far, and the red victoria wax.

The victoria wax has came up amazing, great beading and a nice deep shine. Give it a try!

I honestly wouldn't use most waxes on white as generally sealants look better, and do a better job at repelling fallout and tar.  Looks at something like Wolf's Body Wrap or GTechniq C2.

That said, I used Auto Finesse Spirit on a white GTI recently, and was blown away by it... however, the car was machine polished beforehand.

You can't beat Zaino for results or ease of application. Stunning results on any colour.

Amazing wax, have used it a few times! I'm using this 3m Rose stuff at the moment and that seems to do a very good job at a lowish price
