Hey fella's I was wondering if any of you knew what type of wax or somthing i could use on my 97 to make the paint feel nice and smooth, like how it is on new cars in show rooms. Thanks

Mothers Clay bar or Clay Magic, I think Meguairs has a clay bar.

wash your car thoroughly, and use plenty of Lubricant (Meguairs quick shine or Clay Magic lubricant that comes with the bar) and use it! jus follow the instructions, it works wonders

use it every 6 monthes or so, if you're on the east use after winter ends, in cali its up to you haha

then follow up after the clay with Meguairs 3-step wax or whatever ou prefer

Well...

Any wax should do it, but most people use Zymol for its name, reputation, and cool coconut smell . If you really want a smooth shine you should buy a buffer ($35 @ AutoZone) to use with the wax. It will be smoother than water...
