Winter is coming & I'm looking for a quality wax to use which I guess needs to be pure carnauba based, any experts that can advise please ?

So far this seems to be pretty good - Collinite 915 ?

Tried most but found Zaino to be head and shoulders above the rest Not cheap but what a finish check out my gallery  D4 3.0 HSE with all the toys.
Departed RRS TDV8 HSE C/W with Full Arden body kit.
I never drive faster than I can see!

I used Collinite 476s wax applied 2 coats for even results and should last 6-12months

I top up with DoDo Juice Red Mist sealant

I also like Dodo juice supernatraul wax

speak with forum sponsor JKP Detail on what he has to offer, I know he was doing a winter protection package resently

For ease of application, durability and cost, the werkstat range of products are ideal especially during the winter periods. This company are offering a special offer on their range.

If you want a decent wax and do not want to pay too much, you could look at Finish Kare FK1000P. It offers a great finish and is highly durable

The quality of finish is totally dependant on the amount of preparation to the bodywork before applying either of the products above. Gone: RRS : HSE : TDv6 : 57 : Java Black : Ebony : 20"

Thx, already have & am waiting for him to get back to me

I think JKP is away for a holiday in good old Tenerife for 10 days but i'm sure he'll respond if he can

Good Point. He had an excellent package offer a couple of weeks back. Gone: RRS : HSE : TDv6 : 57 : Java Black : Ebony : 20"

Ive just spent the day cleaning/waxing my car, i washed it, clayed it ,then used dodo juice lime prime lite to clean the paint and take out light scratches, then i sealed it with chemical guys mirror finish and used dodo juice purple haze wax to finish off, dodo juice are good products in my experience and easy to use.

Im now exhausted and have a sore back........but at least the cars very shiny.

Swissvax "Best of Show"  It can't be that hard on diesel???

Swissvax BOS is good but at over £100+ a pot it's not the best to use unless your paintwork has been fully sorted first

I just took it that anyone who is prepared to spend over £100 on a wax also has the marbles to prepare the surface properly.  It can't be that hard on diesel???

But not everyone understands what's needed to prepare a car correctly for a wax.

wasn't having a dig at your suggestion BTW

We can only assume (and dont start with the whole ass...... uuuuuuuuu....... meeeee) that the said person would research full prep work This is all hypothetical though.  It can't be that hard on diesel???

One would assume that if they're even contemplating spending over £100 on a pot of wax they have an idea ofwhat they're getting into. Before I understood what car preparation involved I wouldn't spend more than £5 on a bottle of shampoo! Gone: RRS : HSE : TDv6 : 57 : Java Black : Ebony : 20"
