The most satyisfying wax I have used is the Meguairs stuff in a tin. It's like a big block of bees wax that you polish tables with Was a bit difficult to use though

Yeah they do do a clay, comes as part of a kit with a spray quick detailer. The clay is great for getting a really smooth finish!

Also good for overspray. When i got my car the spoiler had overspray on it, could only see it in certain lights, had tried everything then used this clay stuff and after a bit of rubbing it dissapeared!! Excellent stuff!

ALthough lubricate it well! lol

I forgotten the order too, if it's Gold Class polish, then Tech Wax or the other way round... It's been such a long time since I cleaned a car, but it comes out well.

Cheers guys! Think I might get some Autoglym Ultra Deep Shine and Meguairs Gold Class stuff to see which I prefer to use and what goes on/off easier etc.

Just gotta wait for some nicer weather...
