Default Wax for white cars

Was just browsing @ auto zones and saw that Maguires has a wax made especially for white cars. Since I have an article white car naturally I'm intrigued. Has anyone had any experience with it?
Does it really shine better than others?

I used a Sealer first and then Wolfgang Fuzion on my deceased Arctic White C5 and it did a very good job. On White Sealer works even by itself.

They offer two versions, a black version and a white version. It has been suggested that the wax has some colored dye and might cover up light marring.

If you are looking for other color charged waxes, I might suggest Dodo Juice who has been doing this and has a stellar reputation for pure paste waxes. There brand is best applied to well cleaned and polished paint and really can amplify and enhance certain colors.

I just used the Maquiars White Wax today on my Speedway White Zo6.
The car looks amazing , I would say it's the best shine I ever had.
Now I need to see how long it lasts...

Forgot to mention , This was over a coat of Rejex

I've used the new White Wax. The main difference between it and the Black Wax is that the white wax has more cleaners in it. In fact, I'd actually just go ahead and call it a cleaner wax. If you don't have a smooth finish (i.e. recently clar barred, wax) then using just the White Wax is a pretty decent plan.

I usually use rejex an then apply a coat of wax. Would applying this after rejex remove the rejex protection?

If it has cleaners and/or abrasives in it, then yes it can. Rejex is a pure sealant and looks great (and very durable) on its own.

My brother used this on his Viper. It's easier to see what your doing and it "whitened" his car a bit. Inflection is about the same vs Ultimate Liquid Wax.

i used the white wax from megs in my 13 GS and found it to create some light hair like scratches... the cleaners did i think ... i had to go back and correct it w menzurna 3000 w wite pad... best results is to polish with menz 2500 it breaks down to a nano and it looks great but you can do a menz 4000 106FA. Then seal it w wet diamond.... and that white with POP

In the sealant category, Duragloss is a strong underdog for sure. My preference on white is Collinite 915.

I use Wolfgang Fuzion which really shine my car and restore its original beauty. I don't have experience with this wax however I am thinking to get one as a try.

I've been happy with rejex. Can't see how white can jump out more on me. But I want it to. To add to the fun I've just plasti dipped my wheels white.

I think white cars need more shining for others.Because white color fell more dusty than others.So it needs more cleaning.So wax one or twice a week is sufficient for white cars.Wax remove all dust from car with one time clean with dry cloth.
