Recommend me a wax to put over FK1000p

As title..

Love my 1000p but looking a wax that'll go on over the top of it and give the car a bit more of a wet look.

Sorry forgot about that.. Its Sliver. 

Was think along the lines of trying Dodo Juice Diamond White Panel Pot to see what it was like over the top.

yep diamond white is good but its a hard wax and will still give you a glossy wet look but a soft wax like light fantastic will give a wetter finish, also consider rainforest rub.

fk1000p should be giving you a nice look on silver, has the car had any prep work done to it?

soft wax is the way to go for wet look finish, hard waxs are really good but i find they dont quite get the wet finish soft waxs give.

let us know what you get and how you get on :wink:

tip:apply dodo waxs as thinnly as possible,obviously make sure you cover the surface completely but make sure you apply thinnly so it A cures faster and B is easier to remove :wink:
