I have used Future floor wax for years. This is a video about it. This guy uses an air brush, I use a soft lint free cloth.

I've been using the Createx 4053 High Gloss UVLS Clear. It's rather new and polishes well. I'm still trying to figure out how wet to lay it down. I refuse to use something as nasty to your lungs as 2k for model cars.

Future or whatever they call it now. Its non-toxic and you can brush it on with no brush marks afterward. I hope they never stop making it. Just be patient with it and don't touch it after you apply it. Thats when you can mess it up. It might fog on you but don't worry, it goes away after it dries.Found a picture of it.

Well, it was called Pledge. Pretty clearly spelled out on the label. But ya can't get it now. Discontinued many months ago.

I have 2.5 bottles of it left and rationing it to important projects.

The new alternative is something called Quick Shine.



Goes on a little milky looking but dries clear and hard and doesn't yellow.

I tried this the other day and actually airbrushed it on. Looks terrible when it goes on but leave it alone for about 10-15 minutes and it looks great. I like it because it's not too "glossy"; some stuff makes the model look candy-coated.
