I agree Meguiars is top notch...been using on my cars for years, but the only UV protection I saw was the stuff you spray on tires and vinyl. Not sure if I want to spray that on my CF wing. I will go back and read the back of all the waxes and see if any are UV'd.

Does anyone use Zaino? I hear that's top notch, but expensive.

I use zymol and 3M perfect show car wax, depends on what I have. The 3M says right on the front it is a UV protectant wax. The 3M is insanly nice wax. Zymol, the name speaks for its self, top notch

I use Zaino, I'm up to 7 layers (5 layers of Z5, 2 layers of Z2). The pics on my website were done when I only had 5 layers :

Zaino is not expensive when you take into account how little you have to use and how long it lasts. You don't HAVE to put on 7 layers (hehehe), but you might WANT to. It's kind of addictive. It just gets better and better the more you put on.

Gold Class is good, but the Medallion is a step up. I can only find it at a local Mirror Glaze store. Yeah, all their waxes and protectants contain UV protection.
Zaino is the best of the best, but of course there's a price that comes with that like all things.

For my wing I am currently using 3M Perfect-It show car liquid wax. It states that it Retards UV light damage and is clear coat safe.
