I think either would be a good choice or you could pay a little extra and go for either Purple Haze or Blue Velvet Pro. I have Purple haze and it is a very good wax but I will be trying the pro version of it very soon  :smiley:

think ill try a panel pot of the purple first and see how i like it, i use jet seal first then just top layer with the dodo so i dont really need to use the pro version, im guessing thats for using if your not sealing first?

As Uruk said either would be good, ive got PH pro and used it on my audi and the tornado red mk2 G60 Detail posted in here, its very economical to use, it goes on so thin and easy and buffs off easy aswell.

highly recomend it
