RE: Waxing...
Hard wax is the best protection available. Carnuba waxes and cleaner-waxes are meant to be used more frequently, because hard waxing takes more time and effort. If you only wax your car 1 or 2 times annualy, you should use hard wax. However, if you are planning on waxing your car monthly, I would reccomend a carnuba wax such as Zymol. Cleaner waxes are used best on extremely dirty areas such as the front of the hood. I wax my car every weekend so I use Zymol (for the name and pleasent aroma). Anyway, use hard wax if you have the time, it will serve you the best.

I haven't used it, but I did use Formula 113 and it is some of the best stuff I've ever seen. I looked on the links on this website and found it. They say that Formula 113 is " micro-brewed ". I really like the fact that it can be used on just about the whole car ( glass and trim included ). I'm not sure whether or not it is a hard or soft wax though. Anyway, just my opinion.
