wax question

[BlackRaptor]

Hey guys .
Looking to hear what your favorite wax is for hiding / removing light scuffs and also protecting it from new scuffs. I mow with mine so small branches sometimes brush the hood not scratches they don't cut into the paint as much as scuffs that can be buffed out.
Thanks everyone.

There was a recent thread (in the Deere Owning/Operating forum, I believe) discussing using Pledge (the furniture polish). I suggest you read it...

I like to use the carnuba wax. Not sure on the brand. I found that it cleans any fine dirt from the paint and gives it an nice durable, shiny finish.

Wax is just wax. If you need to get rid of scuffs and scratches you need something a little more agressive like an automotive polish or for very aggressive scuffs and scratches a rubbing compound

the scuffs are very very light. might try a light duty polish.
Thanks

try meguiars (spelling?). I used that on my mustang a few months ago before i used their carnuba wax to finish off. It really made the car shine. I dont like to use a rubbing compound uless it is an absolute emergency. There is a lot of grit in it obviously to smooth out scratches but constant use can cause headaches to your finish

I have used Turtle Wax products for years.

Once you get the scratches out I normally use Mothers carnuba cleaner wax. It lasts a long time.

John Deere plastic does not like automotive wax with a cleaner. It will scratch the plastic and look worse than before you started. Pledge furniture wax works great. The scratches are there, metal or plastic they are not coming out. With metal you can sand down and paint. Removing scratches in plastic is more involved. I would stay away from John Deere Plastic with automotive waxes with a cleaner or car compounds, white red or any other color of automotive paint compounds.
