Might have to treat the car to some then keep it protected through this winter weather, its alot cheaper then i thought it would be for the kind of results you get
I applied some polish and wax a wee while back and got some on my plastic arch its now stained it white in bits whats the best thing to get this off?

Bit of APC and a toothbrush.
Jake - Reason for the damp applicator is that it makes the application of the wax a lot easier and allows the pad to glide a bit more and allows the coat of wax to be a bit more even.
Also allows the product to go further! I even do it when I hand polish cars.

NO - buffer trails will be left too!!
Unless you're looking at getting a Megs G220 or PC or something. Even then, only use it with polishes, not waxes (imo anyway)

EZ Creme Glaze followed by Jetseal is an absolute winner.

I have heard vxrmarc say that one of the best applicators is a cut up sponge from Halfords, never tried it myself but might well give it a go next time.
dont the best waxes get applied by hand?
Yes but those are the ones that none of us are ever likely to use. MONEY.
You can apply most waxes by hand, even the cheaper ones. Prefer using pads myself though.
Jetseal is  on wheels though.
