Very durable and vfm. Doesn't quite give the same sort of shine as a Dodo offering would.
Give me a month and Collinite is available through me lol.

I think it's great stuff also, easy to use as long as you buff it off after a panel, lasts for ages.

I use it as my "winter wax" on valets and my van. 3 coats on the van atm and topped after each regular wash with Dodo Red Mist lol.
Come summer though it's Dodo all the way for me as it adds that little extra to the finish.

I didnt want to U2U you Rich as I know you get mithered enough 
I cant find it on ebay either, what does it retail for about?
Its the shine Im after, if the Dodo is going to give a better shine then I may well go with that, which would you reccomend for a non metalic orange?
And dont worry Rich Il be buying off you

Tom - Yes mate 
Matt - Collinite is meant to retail at just under £20 but you find it for all sorts of prices on eBay. Cheapest I've seen it is about £11 delivered. Annoying as Collinite UK don't give a toss what price it's sold at on eBay and just said it's up to me how much profit I want to make out of each unit! Dodo wise, the ones specifically designed for warm colours are Orange Crush or Banana Armour, both £31.95. Alternatively, Hard Candy works well on that colour which is what I've used in the past, and that retails at £28.95.
I also have a pot of Banana Armour on the van which has around 90% left and I'd be happy to sell that for £25 delivered if not

The Dodo wax Rich sold me (Rainforest Rub I think its called - for darker colours) is great. Such a nice finish and very shiny. Finish seems to last quite a while too (keeps beading if/when we have rain).
Going to last me years as well I think. Had it 6 months now and hardly used any
