    Your car looks great Jay but that stuff is so expensive(too expensive for me). Which one do you use?

    They're not cheap, but everything is hand-made in Switzerland. Their stuff all smells so good you could eat it, comes off without ANY chalky-dust, doesn't leave swirls and is designed to protect the paint rather than continually cut it back to achieve shine.

    You get the idea:

    I've been showing cars on and off for over ten years now, and have always used Autoglym. Either Super Resin on its own, or with the Extra Gloss on top sometimes.

    The WilliamsF1 carnuba enriched stuff is fantastic. Just a single coat of that looks better than AG's Super resin with Extra gloss on top. And half the effort
    Hey, you! Out there on the road always doing what you're told, can you help me?

    Re: What Car wax do you use

    For my winter cars I polish with Meguiers and use Colinite paste wax which is good.

    But for my show car I use Pinnacle Souverän wax which I have to import from America, but it's worth it.

    You can get Meguiers from their Web site http://www.meguiars.co.uk they do quite a range of different polishes and waxes tho.

    Their latest product is their NXT range, this consists of their NXT shampoo and a combined polish and wax. I have used this and it's OK as an entry level product.

    They also sell what call 3-stage systems which consists of a cutting polish, finishing polish and a wax. They have a few variations, the ones to look at are the Deep Crystal System and the Gold Class System which are quite good, I find the Deep Crystal polish and carnuba wax quite good.

    The best wax they sell is the #16 Paste wax from their Bodyshop range, this is a nice strong and wet look wax and the tin would last you ages.

    If you want to take things even more seriously I use a company called www.seriousperformance.co.uk who sell waxes such as Poorboys EX-P, Clearkote and P21s.

    For a perfect finish you ideally want to be layering with a natural wax and polymer sealant, for instance cut, polish, glaze, sealant, wax then use a carnuba safe quick detailing spray in between waxings. With this level of paint protection you don't even need shampoo to clean the car.

    Re: What Car wax do you use

    Auto glym Super resin. I have nearly every auto glym product available i think lol.
    Used to use it every other day on my Mk2 Astra but due to circumstances stopped cleaning my next two or three cars. This weekend the Omega came under the cleaners. Had it valeted then Brian and i T-Cutted the car cos the paint felt like emery board. Once we'd dont that we Super resined it. Came up beautiful. Even brian made the comment 'maybe i under estimated this stuff' (and he is Mer through and through) I then brought it in the workshop monday and polised it with super resin twice more. Wow it is gleaming!!! Im a car cleaning addict again.

    Thanks Matt! I just use the "Onyx", apparantly the cheapest wax they offer (£30 a pot) but it works for me and lasts a very long time.

    One AutoGlym product I could not be without is the Intensive Paint Restorer, I bought my dads Honda Prelude which he's neglected for about 5 years. There were panels that he thought needed replacing but with a lot of elbow grease and the Paint Restorer all the years of tar has some off, it's wee wee's all over the Meg bug and tar remover.
