And when I have time to spend polishing I use Farecla Wax Top Liquid Wax Polish. This is a really good long lasting wax but works best if you put it on and leave it on for >15 mins before you buff it off.
Autoglym Super Resin polish is another good polish but if you have any stone chips the polish is very white and makes stone chips stand out especially on dark colours.

Ive seen tests by a pro detailer friend of mine using the cheapest polishes he could find compared to polish that costs the same as a small car and the differences were slim when used on a car which had no prep work done.
Buying a good polish doesnt mean its going to make your car look good.
95% of it is down to the preperation.
Does the car have any paint defects, swirl marks, faded, ect.
Have you clayed the car to remove any surface contaminants that washing doesnt remove.
If the prep work isnt right then ALL polishes will be poor.

I gave over using Autoglym Super Resin cause of the white residue in the chips.
Hope that helps.

For all those using super resin polish they have released a new version.

Thats good to know - its very tedious trying to get the white residue out of chips etc. :roll:

For speed I use Autoglym Express Wax aka Aqua Wax is really good and is extremely easy and quick to use. Plus it smells really good and you apply it whilst your car is still wet.
I'd second that :wink:
bought some the other weekend in the halfords two-for-one offer & it worked really well.
Great if your a lazy so-and-so like me….
