For a quick fix I always use a Meguiar's Ultimate Quik Detailer when I've just finished washing the car.... it seems to give a good finish and a wet look in my opinion. This is on top of the wax which the VW dealership put on. Love you car mate (nice wheels).



p.s. thats not me in the picture on the mobile phone by the way...!
Your car looks fantasic mate, a real head turner! just check this guy out :wink: :smiley:

you'd get better results using a QD which has some form of Carnauba content... something like gtechniq C3 or perhaps something more akin to a sealant like DJ Red Mist

Cheers for the heads up on the other QD products. Never heard of those products before to be honest, but I'll definatly give them a go next time.

Thanks MAW73

Thanks for your comment!! Yours is the best coulor too. For quick detailing spray I use Chemical Guys Pro detaler this stuff is amazing, and its much more gentle on top of your wax!! I do rate chemaical guys products much more than Meguiar's?? Open to feedback around this though?? Thanks Steve :cool:
