Thanks for the info guys! I will try I.C.E. one more time perhaps on a rain free day. As for the other products you all use I don't really recognize any of those names except Mequiar's. I guess I should've stuck with a type of wax that's been around for a while. My main thing was wax residue, it's a pain!!!

That's why I use Zaino; it's not a wax. It's a chemical process. Read up on it on their website.

I agree but the white residue is a killer

I use it and no white residue!
I agree it's hard to get off but there is no white residue and you can use it on the bumpers ,doors handle and mirrors . U just need one application and then use the detailer it comes in a spray bottle it works well with the first application of ice wax
comes off real easy

Try Meguiar's NXT Liquid Wax. I used it on my Black X Unlimited and it looks great. It wiped off easily with no residue. Can't vouch for durability yet, I only applied it two weeks ago.

We tried ICE on all our rescue vehicles and firetrucks before our 4th of July parade. Worked great!! Usually a pain in the butt with all the decals and pin stripping with residue but no worries with the ICE. Tried it in my Jeep and so far so good. They also make a clay bar product. Thinking of doing that next.

I used ICE out of curiosity and must say... I hated it! Only good is no residue, but that just isn't enough incentive to use it again.

You might want to give ICE one more try. The 2 part set has a polish and a detailer spray.

Once you've done the polish the REAL shine comes after using the detailer spray.

I haven't used the ICE wax yet, but I did try the ICE carwash soap. I was impressed. I just let the jeep airdry, and there were still no spots. Also washed my 38 year old truck, and its old paint looked and felt smooth and shiny afterwards. Two thumbs up.
