    Is the general consensus at DB that Petes 53 is a wax worth considering?

    Ed, if you want to try some I have a can of it I used on a hood. Let me know and I can come by and watch you wax a car or truck.:chips:

    I have only used it once, but I was really happy with the results. I used it to top a layer of 845 and I didn't have any issues. Really easy to apply and to remove ...

    I don't know if anyone here agrees with me, but pete's 53 smells similar to the zymol cleaner wax that I used to use 10 years ago (i don't know if the formula has changed or not).

    You can never go wrong with Pete's. Has a nice warm glow, makes metallics pop and beads great.

    I like Pete's too. Like so many waxes out there that are nice, it gets over looked cuz there are SO many out there.

    pete's 53 was my first expensive wax purchase. That may sound funny but compared to Wal-mart it was a big jump explaining to my wife why I needed to spend $40.00 on wax. My first use was on my Dad's 2009 GT500 KR Black w/ Flat Black stripes. I loved the way it turned out he did also. I'd post pic's but picture size to large to post in process of resizing all my saved pictures. Link to my blog if you want to check some pictures out.

    He had ordered it, and was waiting for it to get built. when one day an ad came on t.v. about the new Knight Rider. He thought he was pretty cool. But I'm pretty proud of him he drives it hard and takes it the the Miller Sports park to race all the time. We live about 3 miles away from the track and most the miles have been from 0-100mph and back to 0.
