My go to for a cheaper wax is Pete's 53. You can't beat the look and performance of it for the price.

I really wouldn't consider Pete's 53 an inexpensive wax.

IMO an inexpensive wax is one that costs less than $25. Finish Kare Pink Wax (#2685) is really a great product at a fantastic price (15 oz. tub for $17).

Agreed. Nuba/Polymer blend go for Pink Wax. Synthetic go for 1000p. Both tins will last FOREVER.

I'm another Collinite convert here. 845 or 476 are both awesome waxes with great durability. I put some 476 on my Allroad back in the beginning of May and it's still giveing good beading.
