03-08-2017, 09:59 AM #5Yeah there are a million and one products out there. What people do typically is fine what works best for them. As Lexusboy said, it seems to be a personal thing. I don't think you can go wrong with any of the top brands really.

I have attached some addresses to various sites I have used with success in the past, the choice is huge. See what you budget allows & post up what you are thinking about buying then perhaps the members can offer an opinion. There is also a couple of detailing sites that offer good advice & info on current products.

This site is USA, some good stuff & prices but you will get hit with UK import taxes :thumbdown:
Of course the ulimate stuff & very expensive is (IMO)

Shy boys don't get sweeties.
As Lexusboy says, very personal, you will get many people telling you about different products. Of course money is a big issue here with the likes of Zymol costing a fortune compared to any other product.

Often the differance on one wax to another is some are better on some colours.
So i would go over to http://www.detailingworld.co.uk and get all the info for your final selection.
I use Collinite 476s wax Mr Mole uses Dodo juice and get very good results other use Autoglym or Zaino z8 so maybe a evening reading will give you a good idea on what maybe worth spending your money on and if you get this right then it will be worth the many hours to get your car cleaned to a good finish.
As Some of the guys have said it all down to cost but i would start with a good wax.

All the top products will do a good job. It's really down to how easy you find them to use etc.

03-08-2017, 10:42 AM #9Wax is a good example of a personal thing. Person A might find Wax X very easy to work with, and gets good results. But Person B finds it a bit of a nightmare (too hard, too soft, etc) and so uses Way Y instead. Person C probably needs to try Wax X and Wax Y to see if he likes either of them, or maybe he needs to try something else !
