Just for everyone else to see what your favourite products are, it will really save time on buying products for cleaning if you can buy the best for your car. It is also nice to see what other people are using and what finish they are getting from it.

I was thinking of this for a template:

Shampoo:

Sponge/mitt:

Polish:

Sealant:

Wax:

Glaze:

Feel free to add pictures and add any other heading i missed:

Thanks.

Shampoo: autoglum bodywork shampoo

Sponge/mitt: Kent microfibre cleaning mitt on bodywork, & sponge on wheels & anything truly grubby

Polish: Auto glym super resin polish,

Sealant: dont really use one, altho i picked up a bottle of the useless Turtlewax colour magic for a few quid in a slae the other day, found the colour polish/wax helped to hide a lot of stonechips & tired looking areas, though i'd keep it in the bag of tricks for a quick revive every so often when in a rush

Wax: i like colonite but tis a bit pricey to use fortnightly.

Glaze: dont normally bother but Auto glym instant show shine works really nicely at the show for a real quick buff up.

for reference then, this is what i normally achieve with the AG products, a great finish but never quite like a mirror

then for players i gave her a quick once over with the cheapo turtlewax, helped fill in all the little niggly bits, & gave her a mirror finish...

Nice man, i used to use all AG stuff but honestly there is so much better stuff out there, autofinesse stuff isnt expensive but works really well

your are quite right, I was bought an Auto glym case, for my birthday by the wife, the kit is still going & an havent had to buy anything else, i was just in the shop & saw it an thought for a few quid, i'll give it try, if it fails I'll lob it, i suppose if you dont expect much you can be surprised!
