meguiars gold class stuff is supposed to be really good..
At the mo, im using my own special brew lol..
I basically mix aload of products together and clean the car with it.
2moro when I do it, I will be using a mix of Turtle wax zip wax,Demon shine stuff and Auto Glym bodywork shampoo.
you will be surprised how great it will look! Will do pics aswell 2moz.
Then will polish it with Turtlewax High Gloss, or this spray on stuff called Williams showroom finish.

Halfords sell the Williams stuff mate.
They do certain products that repel rain water aswell, kinda like a wax.

I always use (and now sell) Autoglym!

Can't go wrong with it - superb stuff.

Meguairs is said to be brilliant - i haven't yet used this myself yet.

usually i cant be doin with spending ages polishing, can get a decent finish by using the turtle wax "wax it wet", just spray it b4 u shamee the panel, much easier! it brings up the car really nice and shiny for not too much effort! i usually only polish it every couple of months.

In this weather I don't get to polish the car that often but have been washing it around twice a week.

When the weather is good i'll polish it as often as I can.

Love the feel of smooth paintwork!
