Wax and Detailing

Equinox · 13-07-2012, 11:08 PM

Well I return from the south of France tomorrow and no doubt the car will deserve a good polishing soon again.

For the last few years I have mainly been using Zymol Creme wax on my cars but im nearing the end of a tub and need to replace it, quick shout out to you all to see whats good and whats popular, ive never ventured much from that, happy with all the other products i use just need to address the Wax issue, dont really have an issue with cost within reason assuming its good.

I use a normal washing process and then this
http://www.polishedbliss.co.uk/acata...laze-cat9.html for the Grey Paint and this
http://www.polishedbliss.co.uk/acata...laze-cat9.html for the CF Parts.

And I use an Orange Wax, name of which escapes me but to be honest, it's not the greatest and now even that good at beading water. I'm going for Dodo Juice's Purple Haze this time for the Black M3 but not sure yet for the CSL.

Following this thread with interest.

Mines wrapped but the best products Ive found is this SV pre wax cleaner:

Then SV Opaque

The water beads perfectly and after a blast or TD the fly's just wipe off.

If it wasnt wrapped id buy a pack like this:

Or you could try something like this after polishing, tried it on the misses car:
