+1.  I save a few quid and go with 476s as opposed to 915.  915 is supposed to be a tiny wee bit glossier than 476s.

Eveyone on detailing world is banging on about FK1000 at the minute - its like an easier to apply collinite, and very good value:

Like my first time with it, I bet your doing it wrong.  One panel at a time, 3 minutes or cure time or so. Buff off.

Any longer and it dries like concrete.

I learnt that the hard way for a couple of months with Meguiars Liquid Wax lol! Did the whole car then buffed it off. Not anymore :P
