LOL, I said that the first day I bought Meguiars Gold Wax and had my black car ... ended up giving away all my first batch of cleaning products to a mate so I can stock up on alternatives for my new red golf that I replaced my previous car with haha

After the SRP you could give it a coat of jetseal [or similar] to get the protection, then natty blue on top for gloss. You have to leave plenty of cure time between coats when you start using that amount of products simultaneously.

Tbh, just get yourself a Wax, only reason im using AutoSmart Cherry Glaze is because ive got a lot of it already to finish. I'd get Collinite 915 because its highly rated ... not only because people have recommended it, but the fact I typed in Highest Carnauba Content in Google (Carnauba being the ingredient that gives that wet look shine) and Collinite 915 showed up as the FIRST result, followed by DoDo stuff.

would you say collinite is much better than nattys blue? only reason I ask is because its more expensive and I don't want to spend too much tbh.

Do you know what ... I haven't used Collinite yet so can't say its better or just as good as Nattys blue, but people have their own opinions. BUT, its definitely very HIGHLY rated by people; not to mention it also shows up as the first result when searching for 'a wax with the highest carnauba content' (which is what gives the glossy wet look shine) so it must be good.

decisions! I have now read about clearkote carnuba moose wax - meant to be really good?
 also chemical guys butter wax and the dodo juice blue stuff. I have had a hard wax before and it was a nightmare to buff off after, are they all like this?
 So, don't want to spend more than £20 tbh so what should I buy :undecided: :undecided:

Take the gamble and get AutoGlym HD or Collinite 915 Wax ... their both good as each other I heard.
