Wax reccomendations? Or stick with Mothers?

[David_Vi]

On reccomendation I got this nearly a year ago but you can see it's nearly gone!



Is there anything else I should try ?

I understand a pure carnauba without any cleaning chemicals is the way to go but is there a better alternative to Mothers that I can get in the UK?

I have a few issues with Mothers that might be user error.
For one it's very crumbly, no matter how I apply it I seem to find crumbs on it on the playfield or stuck to the balls after one game. It's more annoying on Diner as these crumbs find themselves under the playfield protector and it looks horrible (I know there's arguments against using wax on pf protectors but I have been experimenting).

Hit me with your wax reccomendations or tell me what I'm doing wrong

R222 Carnauba Wax

R222 Carnauba Car Wax P21S products by Smartparts have been re-branded as R222 within Europe This is probably the best wax out there that is way beyond its price bracket in terms of quality, shine and lasting performance. Premium quality carnauba paste that does not contain or need for that matter

www.cleanyourcar.co.uk

Same as P21S in the states

Is it a similar consistency to mother's? I'm struggling with the crumbliness of it

No, it's good at not leaving white dry residue following application.

Holds on to the applicator well also so it's not dropping where you don't want it to go,

Ignoring the crumbs, if it looks applied ok I somehow get bits on the ball which then get trailed over the playfield....like skid marks

Collinite 845 Insulator Wax, 473 ml, white https://amzn.eu/d/7Xe3cgf

This stuff is superb, give it a good shake. Apply with an applicator (round spongy thing), leave until it turns cloudy then buff off with a microfibre cloth - be warned though, ya pin will be super fast afterwards!

This is good kit David

I think in general most carnuba paste waxes are fine, I like Dodo Juice personally, goes on smooth and definitely not crumbly.

Could get a small tester pot for a few quid to see if you get on with it.
