The SRP is really good value for the money mate... It's quite abbrasive too so it helps to mask any imperfections too...
Never used the sealant though mate so I have no idea about that....

i dont rate their sealant comparing it to the more expensive Chemical Guys Wet Mirror Finish ect. but for the money it does the job and it does it to a high standard, i always find it takes longer to run out of autoglym products and i dont know why...

This is not quite true. It is not very abrasive, but it had fillers in it which go into the groves left by the imperfections on the surface of the paint work and therefore masks them.
The Extra Gloss Protection is also for the money, and for the fact you can get it from halfords. There are better out there for a similar price. Use a microfibre cloth to apply it leave it on for the said amount of time, then apply a wax over the top without buffing, or buff then apply wax.

dont think there is a pure wax sold in halfords, however you could try the following which ive seen:
- meg's step 3 which is the pure wax
- turtlewax platinum series carnauba wax
- meg's NXT wax, which is a synthetic i think
- turtlewax ice
have a read on their packages and make your mind up.

Try Auto Glym Aqua Wax! Its really good! You have to use it while the car is wet though! Strange i no, but it is good stuff!

no you dont lol you can use it wet or dry. this is why aqua wax was made matey ;)
it also has a high trace of carnauba wax just the smell of the wax tells you ;).
SRP is good if you go to halfords they usally have a deal on them for the 1ltr bottles. £7.80 or somat << i pay less like as i get it at trade.

I personally use it as on my paintwork it gives me a better reflection and looks a bit more shiny and makes the paint feel smoother. THink it makes the wax last longer too but not really dome any direct comparisons.

yeah no negatives. it doesnt matter what you use, with both you have extra protection and diif look from each combined.
sealant gives more reflect, sharper look. waxes give a warmer, glossy look. as ive said before each can out last each other depending on which you use.
ive have some zaino for sale ;)

I use both of the AG SRP and EGP and they are brill, gives great beading. You can use the EGP on its own but I would always polish it first for that better shine. The SRP seems to last about 3 washes and the EGP a bit longer.
