Good wax/polish!!
I did it again yesterday and love it.
It heard it on a tv program call scrimpers…………… a few week back.
I use autoglym wax always and had 3/4 bottle left.
I bought some baby oil, Johnsons i used and put 2 caps of baby oil in the remaining wax, using the baby oil cap.
Sake so to mix, apply on bodywork with soft cloth and leave to dry as normal and buff.
All i can say is no longer do i see the very very fine marks on paintwork which we all will have.
The shine is superb for a cheap and easy way.
No buffers used, just 4 hours by hand, very very happy i tried this method
Anyone else tried this?
Oh my afrikaan flew through yet another mot

Harley's or harlys, can't remember the spelling, is brilliant and leaves no white.
I also use collinite which is as good.
SRP is spit on as well and a good clay bar is essential.

I use Bilt Hamber Dry Clay, amazing stuff, followed by Meguiars Mirror Glaze Synthetic Sealant 2.0 followed by Collinite No476S Wax. This is done onnce a year and lasts, with regular washing with Meguiars Gold Class Shampoo.
Works for me !!!

Just getting Autoglym HD wax, clay bar kit and paint cleanser for my bday this Friday, my mate uses it on his Porsche 944 and it looks brilliant.
The kit isn't cheap, £70 but you get 40 applications from the kit.
Hopefully it will work wonders on my Sportline and my BMW.

Cheers Ceri.
My mate has it and he has an old Porsche 944 in black and he swears by it, so I thought I would give it a shot.

From memory the bottles were £20-£30 each , but i got them as a spur of the moment thing from Halfrauds so i am sure they could be bought online cheaper. The only negative comment i would say is some of the cutting compound if put on too thick can be a bit messy and chalky, but none of it sticks to rubbers and is easily wiped off.
I havnt really got all the before during and after shots, but here is some
