Can anyone recommend a good inexpensive polish to bring up the best on my 1999 saxo paintwork?

Aint got any special wax polish or buffers just good elbow grease.

Thx

You want to look in the detailing section in the general forum section, just under General chat, that's where to find these bits!

Depends how bad the paint is. I really rate Menzerna polishes, and they have loads of different grades to suit different levels of paint correction.

If you're doing it by hand I would go with the above suggestion of menzerna. Look on clean your car

I use meguiars pre wax ultimate polish and the next gen wax. This works well on metallic paint, just look at the different grades (like the menzerna range mentioned above) to find the right polish for your paint
