Kidding! 2 guys at work one with a Merc and another with a VXR,both into detailing.One was using the high end autoglym wax at £30ish the other using a high gloss wax from Amazon £7.50 the link http://www.amazon.co.uk/Gloss-carnuaba-DISCOUNTED-PRICE-AMAZON/dp/B007G6E084/ref=sr_1_11?ie=UTF8&qid=1458322650&sr=8-11&keywords=carnauba+wax. The one using the autoglym was converted saying this is great stuff!

I've ordered a couple of bottles. I'm at least trying to get away from the bucket o fairy and sponge. Got myself a alloy wheel brush now that has no metal parts! i know this because when i wash the wheels it sheds blue fibre everywhere.
i'm having conversations about a wash mit vs a sponge...i'm slowly getting there.

Had a look at these on amazon how did you get on with it. Is it easy on easy off and what's it like much powdery residue left over

A wee bit more difficult to work with than resin polish but did 3 panels and got on fine. No residue and when it rained got beading the size o footballs on the roof! that's got to be good. On a lighter note still waiting on my Amazon order from WO-WO or is that "Slow-Slow!

Why didn't you go direct to wo-wo instead of through Amazon?

WoWo are having their website revamped atm, so all their orders are via Amazon until the website is ready.

Might be up and running today. We had a payment issue late on Friday  :angry: so we agreed that it would be better to delay it rather than have angry customers etc.
