    The best wax IMO is made by Wizards. They have a nice liquid wax called shine master that is awesome once a playfield is cleaned and buffed. They also have a spray wax called mist-n-shine that is anti static. Neither product contain silicone which is great if you ever plan on having any paint work done on your pin or playfield. The anti-static is great because it will not attract the coil dust as bad and track it through you pin. The spray wax also cleans up any ball trail dirt that may develope once you have cleaned, buffed and waxed the PF. I use new microfiber with each product.

    Quoted from vid1900:

    Their website says it's not wax.
    Really, you need REAL PASTE WAX to protect a playfield. Not a liquid, not a spray but real wax.
    ....and do you guys know that ALL of this stuff has already been covered in a previous thread?????

    I guess I shouldn’t have used the word “wax”. Either way, we are trying to protect our play fields and these products do that well. I’ve been using this product on my route pins that have thousands of plays and the PFs still look new minus the dimples.

    Here is a clip from Wizards site:

    Easy on — easy off.
    Awesome gloss.
    No streaks or smears.
    No free silicone or wax.
    Excellent cleaning/tough poly acrylic protection.
    Safe for fresh paint, clear coat and Lexan.
    Use as a wax replacement, swirl mark remover, or finishing (show) glaze by hand or machine.
    Marine use: exterior sealant on gelcoat, paint or fresh paint
