Car polish - Whats best?
« on: 03 June 2005, 22:20 »
I find that cheap chavfords polish gets rid of swirl marks and gives it a deep shine. autoglym makes it look dry but tidy.

The only thing im having trouble with is the wax that gets left over once i buff the polish off.
Getting pissed off coz the wax looks stupid when the sun hits it.

What do you peeps use to polish up your cars and whats it like?

I've tried most cleaning products and find Mer gives the best finish.

Just bought some Meguiars recently and this stuff outperforms everything else i've tried in the past.
Loads of other people i've talked to about to also rate it highly :)

Auto Glym here but if you have a dark car teh black newsih stuff is best it doesn't leave any white power after.
I also use the hi gloss gold one but it is hard work but not needed to be done as often.
