Hi folks

I'm looking to buy some new wax to get the cars sorted for the winter. Any recomendations. I was looking at Collinite 476, any thoughts would be appreciated.

Cheers

Yeah as a wee treat to myself but there some really good waxes for under £20. Say collonite and meguiars 16 paste

You will get different size and pattern of beading from different manufacturers of waxes and sealants.

I dunno about other folk but I tend to have a browse on what people think are good waxes and then trade it off against the price. If it's not too pricey a'l give it a go and if I like it keep using it, or if I don't, find someone to donate it to.

Please someone correct me if I'm wrong here but do you not get better results depending on what else you use it with?

Ive got Zymol Glasur as well and its very good. Im pleased with the beading results. I had Concourse before that and Glasur I think isnt that different and saves about £70.
I have carbon as well but for the price I dont think its that much better than some £20 waxes. However the jump to glasur is well worth it in my opinion.
