Default Meguiar's gold class PASTE or Yellow #26 LIQUID?

Which would yield the best overall? Meguiar's Gold Class Paste or Meguiar's Yellow #26 LIQUID. I am thinking I'll go with the past, just because those last the longest and that is my main conscern right now. Any ideas?

Despite what people may say, gold class DOES CONTAIN ABRASIVES, go with #26 liquid or if you really want a good deal go to a motorcycle shop and buy some s100 paste wax.

Baldy,

I've used Meg's Gold Class Clear Coat liquid car wax for the past 4 months. I don't think the #26 yellow liquid you mentioned is the gold-class clear coat? Hmmmm.

Anyway, the Gold Class liquid is awesome. Does not have the the longer lasting protection of Zaino, but it is really a great shine. Like glass. I use Meg's every six weeks or so, and it's amazing. Of course, in our mild California climate, it does last longer than it would in your more "extreme" climate areas. Check it out.

What is your source of this information? I have looked all over their web site and could find nothing to say what was in their Gold Class wax.

MY Gold Class contains no abrasives. I have the Gold Class liquid. In fact, they tell you to use a paint cleaner if your paint has contamination or blemishes, before you use the Gold Class wax. IF this product did have abrasives in it, there would be NO NEED for a paint cleaner.

I would definately also recommend the S100 wax from your local Harley dealer. It's the easiest carnauba wax to use that I have ever tried. It also has a very good looking shine to it. That's what I'm currently using on top of my polymer wax (Finish First, a Zaino competitor).

OK mister know it all, I DID ask Meguiar's and this is what they said:
