What is your opinion on Mothers?
Mothers FX Engineered SynWax that is?
How does it compare to other Waxes and Polishes?

Re: What is your opinion on Mothers?
Well to answer the title question, I like Mothers products! As for the body question, I've never used that particular wax, so I am unable to comment.

Re: What is your opinion on Mothers?
Mother's makes excellent products and you can't really go wrong with them. This is a synthetic product that will outlast traditional carnauba waxes, but really isn't all that different from a variety of similar products on the market. Pick one you like and use it regularly.
But you should be more concerned about prep than just wax/sealant if you want your car to look it's best. A proper wash/clay/polish will remove all the bonded surface contaminants and swirl marks, leaving you with a beautiful finish that will actually help the wax/sealant do it's job better.
Any wax or sealant is designed to be applied to a properly prepared surface and you will always get the best results that way, no matter who's wax/sealant you use.

I love Zymol but the tech wax is very easy to use and leaves a super clean finish. Shines well but again i like zymol better.

Re: What is your opinion on Mothers?
Mother's is a great product I use it all the time. I detail cars on the side. I did 60 this past spring/summer and Mother's never failed me. I use the cleaner/sealer and the 100% carnuba wax. I've been using it for a number of years. Rick
