I've got some of the nano systematic care and it's good stuff tbh... it's more of a cleanser than anything else so it's never going to 'improve' your paint as such. It does leave an ideal base for a wax like Collinite though. I use a microfibre applicator to put it on - soak it in some water and squeeze it out first.

Like LeeeumH I use the carlack for cleaning my car when it's not been done for a while. It's a good base to lay down a decent polish, sealant then wax

I start with Autoglym UDS, but just got a Megs G220 and megs #14 iirc
Poorboys XP sealant then depending on if I want a quick easy wax - Poorboys Natty's Paste wax, if I want a harder finish for winter for example the Collinite Marque d'elegance, or for the ultimate deep look Dodo Juice Purple Haze

I've used it under Collinite 476S quite a few times and it produces decent results. Although people say it's more durable than 915, I find the opposite - 915 always gives me a better finish which lasts longer... even more so if you build up thin even coats of it.

I use cleanyourcar.co.uk every time bud. Just to give you an idea... Carlack 68 -> AG SRP -> Collinite 915 gives me this. Pics are disappointing, but after 3 washes it still looks great.
