The reason i'm posting this here is cause i came across this guy at autozone with a 96 z28 that had a GLEAMING shine. I complimented him on the car, and asked what wax he used.. He told me it's a special soap that contains WAX in it-after you wash the car with the soap it leaves a waxy film over the paint, which gives it a shine.
I forgot the name of the soap damnit.... What are some good soaps that have wax in them..? I think the dude meant Carnuaba (spelling..?) wax within the soap.

Dude that is a F**KING HOT HOOD. That car is awesome man.
BTW, i use meguires pink soap-it leaves a great shine, but i'm looking for a soap that contains alittle wax in it.

I once used some soap/wax in a bottle that a friend got from wal-mart for like 2 bucks for a half gallon and it worked great. My car has never shined soo much. And the Rain-X wash/wax mix sucks, dont waste your money.

I'm gonna pick this stuff up at pep boys tomorrow, it's a yellow soap with carnauba wax in it. It's made by a brand called KIT, and it looks real good-real thick.

using dish soap is bad for your car...its srips the wax off...dish soap contains abrasives
the only time i would ever use dish soap is when you are wanting to strip all the wax off of a car to rewax

meguirs NXT is good its thick and lathery and a wax called "finishing touch" its about 25$ for a 9 oz bottle but it is the most amazing car wax anyone will ever see, some guy showd me at a car show that we were parked next too made his ugly paint show quality it blew me away but it is $$$ expensive.
