Meguiars Smooth Surface Clay Kit

Autoglym Resin Polish followed by a layer of Simoniz Original Car Wax

Personally, I would use Collinite 476s for wax instead.

I have the polish anyway.

Was going to get that clay kit but wasn't sure on the wax but that stuff looks really good and a great price, thanks.

From Halfords stock I would get Autoglym HD wax.

But I would rather wait and get Zymol or Dodo Juice.

the only decent wax/clay halfrauds sell is autoglym however they charge well over the top for both.

I'd get collonite as recommended by someone, specially as we're approaching the winter.

agreed, collinite 476 wax is an excellent all rounder, just sold a nearly new one for £12 delivered..

I got the Meguiars clay kit, was on offer for £20.

Got the Simoniz original car wax for £7.

And as it was 3 for 2 got some AutoGlym window cleaner so not bad really .

However it fucking pissed down so couldn't do it! Will make a day of it tomorrow
