Hey, I've browsed the site for a couple years, never signed up for the forum till now though.
Anyway, I drive a 98 Jeep Grand Cherokee with 6" lift. I love getting it dirty, but also love keeping it clean.
I decided to sign up after I did a quick wash/wax with these products; Rain X wash/wax with carnauba beads, Turtle Wax Scratch&Swirl Remover, and finally Eagle One's Wax As-U-Dry.
Though they are good products, I feel I need to step it up a notch.
I'm in the process of doing suspension work on it (rebuilt axle, control arms, driveshaft, track bar, etc etc) but once that is done, I want to work on a Stroker 4.6 build and get the Jeep painted a Jade Metallic Green color. It's currently a forest green color (don't know the factory name) so I figure if I sand down the clear coat, wet sand the base, the Jade Green can go right on top, followed by a new clear coat.
As of now, I've read enough about Ultima's Trim and Tire Guard (as referred to as UTTG) and am deeply interested in trying this stuff out on my tires. My rims are painted black, and I plan on re-doing the black in a por-15/chassis cote covering. Used por-15 a couple years ago and was very impressed with how hard the concoction becomes. Very much like powdercoat.
So a quick question to anyone who has read this far is what Wax seems to be the most durable against mud and small branches scratching into the clear coat?
Thanks, and I hope to gain some creative car care knowledge here :xyxthumbs:
