I use;
Wheel/tyre cleaner: AutoBrite Purple Rain (Can get a small detailing brush aswell to help agitate dust/dirt)
Tyre dressing: Auto Finesse Satin (I apply with a tyre application)
Wheel wax/sealant: Poorboys Wheel Sealant (I use a small sponge finger mitt to apply)
Shampoo: Meguiars Gold Class
Snow foam: Autofinesse Avalanche (There is cheaper snowfoam on ebay, 10L for £18. I also use this for routine washes)
Preferably a snow foam gun thing that doesn't have to go on a pressure washer: Can't comment, only ever used an AutoBrite Lance with Karcher attachment.
Some decent wax/polish: Auto Finesse Triple 3 Polish / Chemical Guys 3X Wax. (Also use Fusso, but only on milder days as it's a bastard to get off in warm weather lol)
Honestly can't go wrong with the AutoBrite range. I use a lot of their stuff.

They're usually referred to as show glazes, as they're a quick fix.
Still.a.worthwhile product though.
Thats it, black hole, I do remember it smelling nice.

Never tried poorboys, does it take out light scratches and swirls?
It fills/masks them a bit, but it's pretty temporary and you'll probably wash it off at the next wash.
Needs a machine polisher and a proper correcting compound :thumbs:

Autoglym red label, wonder wheels, and some snowfoam my father has, never does a bad job.
I did try out poor boys with my black corsa and it made an excellent job.

Seal the wheels with Gtechniq C5. I did mine 6 months ago, face and barrel.
All it needs now is soapy water and a wipe over and they're nice and clean.

Halfords, sometimes the supermarkets have deals on also.
The postage kills eBay.
Still a fan of Autoglym

I'm after:
Wheel/tyre cleaner - Bilberry, but when sealed normal shampoo is fine
Tyre dressing - just clean your tyres better
Wheel wax/sealant - poorboys
Shampoo - dodojuice
Snow foam - valetpro pH neutral
Preferably a snow foam gun thing that doesn't have to go on a pressure washer. - don't bother unless it's a pressure washer one
Some decent wax/polish. - AG SRP and Collinite wax
Not after spending fortunes. I already have clay and lube. The paint is in good condition. Just after something to keep it that way.
eBay isn't a bad shout, but any of the main Google hits will be similarly priced.
Halfords 3for2 to cover AG SRP, tyre dressing and some rags.

I use autoglym products and can't really fault them, I also use turtlewax wax. Ultimate Finish do some good products too and not over the top prices.
