Well, if he has been doing his homework, they are "hard" & "soft" paste waxes. Dodo juice is one brand that comes to mine. So I guess if he has, then which would it be?

lusso oro is a nice wax - our sponsor carries it
also p21s

both are easy to use, can be used by hand or machine and give great shine-
they are in "cans"- you can take the wax out if you want to use it with a machine, or just leave it in if doing it by hand

main diff is that p21s should be wiped on and wiped off before it hazes. lusso can haze and will still come off nicely. all waxes should be applied thin.

you've really got to try it before you know which one you like better

dodo juice supernatural and those extremely expensive zymol and swissvax waxes are hard because they have high concentrations of carnauba which hardens the wax. the you have to melt the wax first before putting it on the car with an applicator pad or your hands
