Just about to give car a good seeing to

The car is black ..

I have 'Halfords Black Colour Polish', (christmas present) and

'Sonax X-treme Polish and Wax 2, Sensitive' - which was free when I got the car .

Which do I use? If I use the halfords colour polish, will I need to find some wax to finish it? It doesn't say on the bottle to wax it after.

But the Sonax one says it's a 'polish & wax'

Should I use the Sonax, (cos it has a wax in it), or the Halfords one cos it's a real 'Black' polish



& ne other tips please ?

Thanks , I understand that,

But it's too late to go out and buy anything new, with most shops closing at 1230. And I ain't going to halfords.

Id say as the Sonax is polish and the halfords stuff is just colour restorer, + its messy.

madness !

Went out at bout 1245, literally just got back in . - spent 7 and a 1/2 hours on the beast .

That Sonax stuff did the job good in the end. Got rid of the swirls, looks new again
