    Re: which polish do u use??

    There seems to be allot of confusion here about Wax's and polish, a polish will provide no protection to your paint work and very little in the way of gloss, where as a wax does. As a polish I would suggest Auto G's Super Resin Polish, it has some good fillers in which will hide some of the swil marks you will have in your paint. AG Super R has been proved to be better at filling swirl marks that most brands, plus its fine to use by hand. You will never cover up every defect with fillers only paint correction can do this.
    But i would always use a wax over the top to protect the paint.

    I generally use a mild Shampoo (meg's gold class)
    a soft clay such as sonus green or BH Soft
    then a glaze using a DA of Poorboys black hole
    2 layers of Dodo Juice Blue Velet hard wax
    Spray on Wipe of sealant of Zaino Grand Finale

    The above combination is ideal for black or dark coloured cars
    If it aint broke dont fix it

    Re: which polish do u use??

    The Sonus green is a very mild clay. The first time i clayed my car i used a more aggresive clay that removed all the contamination, as the car gets clayed so often i use the light sonus clay as its milder on the paint work and there is less chance of marring the paint with it.
    Using clay for the fist time i would go for a harsher clay, if your going to clay the car regular, switch to sonus after the initial claying.
    BH clay is great simply for the fact you can use water as the lubrication, but you can also use a little shampoo and water for normal clay if you run out of QD
    If it aint broke dont fix it
