Just put it on nice and thin (after you have polished the car)

They say 2 layers will last about a year if you don't use very harsh shampoos, just leave a few hours between layers for curing

+1 for Collinite. Ive tried countless other more expensive waxes and 476 is undoubtedly the best there is.

As NP says a couple of thin coats - i apply mine with a dual action rotary polisher - and use a quality mild wash shampoo and the wax is good for 4-6 months. FF 4.4 V8 Soooo looking forward to this bad boy

Can you use collinite after applying dodo juice tropical and would it be beneficial  MY10 3.0 HSE Santorini Black, Ivory Premium & extended leather, privacy, paddles, diamond turned alloys, Ipod lead that charges, tasmods, rrsport.co.uk stickers

@JC1 - Tropical is used after a wax to top up the beading as a final finish after washing rather than reapplying a wax. Works just fine and extends the length of time between waxing.  FF 4.4 V8 Soooo looking forward to this bad boy

Have to admit that I swear by Dodo Juice Wax on all the cars. Blue Velvet for the black tt and just hard candy for the C30 and Beemer. Keeps its shine well. Washed weekly with Gloss-it now then topped up with the Red Mist. Only car that I have to redo regularly is the bloody C30. Dont know if its just crap paint that Volvo use or what but had to wax it again to day and its only 4-5 months since its been done. X5 and the tt both still gleaming after a wash. just waiting to go do my DA polisher course next month so I can cure the tt of some of the scratches.  Current, M135i in Estoril Blue with more extras than the cast of Ben Hur.
