    Autoglym HD wax or my choice at the moment is the Meguires Ultimate Hydrophobic Polymer Wax, I'm always pleased with the results and all available from Halfrauds......

    I use blackfire, which is not really suited to my paint but the kit cost a bit so im using it. And I just finished a tub of zymol that ive had for 10 years. Im not a fan of cheap waxes tbh.

    graeme I noticed yesterday that black fire have a new wax out for dark cars, PB say it really makes a difference they also said that its rare for them to rate a colour enhancing wax like this.

    am 40 this April been washing cars for few years and I have used loads of products on cars but this turtle wax ice synthetic paste polish is superb I normally use claybar first then ultimate compound then polish then wax. all I did this time was wash and wax and the finish is much better than megs, mer ,auto, for me.

    blackfire will get a more deepness than that finish. its always hard to judge waxes and polishes by photos. photos always make the finish look better than what it realy is
