How does Turtle Wax Platinum stack up against Zaino. My Zaino is running low and I have been looking at low cost alternatives.
A clearcoat is paint with out the color pigment. So you care for it pretty much the same as a single-stage (non clearcoated) paint job. If anything, clearcoats need more TLC because they're thinner. If a clearcoat fails, no amount of buffing or polishing will bring it back to life. The car will need repainting.quote:

Dumb question, OK really dumb. It has been years since I waxed a car. I have always heard that the new cars have a clear coat and don't really need it. My 96' GMC truck still looks great. Are you guys waxing new cars. If so would it be safe to assume that something like Turtle Wax Platinum would not harm the clear coat?
For an almost-new truck, I'm sure the Turtle Wax product will be fine. It's a nice, easy to use wax.quote:

So if I wanted to play lazy and stick with a 1 step wax the Turtle Wax Platinum would work correct? This is a 4wd truck guys not a show car. I'm not going to spend all day Saturday washing and waxing it. The simpler the better for me.
