Menzerna polishes are good on vag paint via DA or rotory,
Wax wise it depends on your budget,

Golf looks nice on those rims.

Basically you could spend up to £200 on wax. I'd say go with a solid £50 for some real decent protection and smooth glossy finish. I'd personally go for a paste wax opposed to a liquid wax.

Possibly ^ as it is 'better' on dark coloured cars...

My Jetseal 109 arrived today! awsome stuff, and coupled with a good quality wax gives unrivalled gloss and protection!  :smug:

pb's natty blue is nice on indigo blue, and its 13 odd quid a tin.

as for polish, do you want to a 1 stage polish? or paint cleanser, polish and glaze?

the best results i got from my indigo blue, were

megs deep crystal stage 1+2,
black hole
wet mirror finish
nattys blue. Although ddj light fantastic looked good

Would highly recommend this wax. Been using it for the past couple of years now and it is the bees knees  :smiley:

Very easy to put on and buff off, and lasts for a very long time. I would definitely give this product 5 stars.

Dodo Juice S/N Hybrid, really good product and the coat my father put on his car is still beading well after almost 4 months !

Here's a pic of the beading after a nice thin layer on mine  :smiley:
