Among the protective ingredients in Vintage are evergreen, honeydew, coconut, cantaloupe and sunflower oils. Vintage contains 61 percent Brazilian No. 1 White Carnauba by volume, the highest in any product designed to protect automotive finishes
    Free Replenishment for life with Vintage glaze

    and all for the bargain price of £1,254.47 (Excluding: VAT at 17.5%)

    dont forget the vat however, they will refill the jar for life

    Not where i get my polishes from, medium bottle of deep shine, for £4.20

    Altho! i still use Meguires Techwax, its fantastic! and smells lush!

    Tryed zymol, smells nice (Coconutty :P) but is a complete arse to get off.

    tbh a coat of Williams f1 polish (I shlt you not!), and a coat of techwax over it and its hard to beat!

    Iv used Meguiars and IMO it wasn’t anything special, Turtle Wax gives the same finish.

    I use the 3 stage, awesome results. Unbelievably sealed, and feels like glass. Tried the £15 blue bottle of wax, but takes 10 times the effort to remove. The stage 3 wax is very good indeed, and easy to work with, just done mine again. Ten minutes in all.

    Still don't know the name for this £15 blue bottle of megs wax
    Just use stage 3 now, everything suggested just doesn't make it any easier to get off. Impossible to get it so it doesn't have bits left on you can see.

    i guess you have to speak from experiance, and i have used autoglym for a while now, price as to performance i think its pretty good, but i have 'not' spoken to other people or viewed their cars using other waxes.

    are you putting to much on?it only needs a really thin layer.
    when i first used nxt i put it on a bit thick and it was a nightmare to remove.mainly on the bonnet(no it wasn't warm)

    Ah mate, Benn and others gave me all the tips. Bonnet was a nightmare.
    Put it on thin, no pressure, no warmth. Using proper cloths to get it off.
    Just not happening. Stage 3 is lovely to use. Waxed it earlier, 10 minutes in all. With theblue bottle it's 10 minutes trying to remove from bonnet before getting pissed off and leaving it.
    Bonnet is worse than rest of car though.
