Just for a bit of fun and to see what everyone else likes to use.

Just now I really like Dodo Juice Supernatural - Easy to use, long lasting and gives a really nice bead.

Also the latest that ive found to like is Dodo Juice Banana Armour - Smells amazing and gives a really nice bead

Favourite for the fact that its much cheapness and performs so well for the money is Meguiars 16.

I also really like Zymol Glasur, but when I compare them (I have both) I am finding it hard to justify the £££ price tag of the Zymol.

Mini - Dodo Juice Blue Velvet Pro
550M - Dodo Juice Light Fantastic
Z4 & 530d - Dodo Juice Purple Haze Pro

I don't have any affiliation with Dodo, honestly! Just had good results so stay with them.

Will probably give the supernatural wax a go in the future

I love the feeling through the wash mitt - with the dodo waxes, the paint feels so smooth when washing

Countryman Collinite 476S

Paceman Collinite 915

Convertible - Angelwax Guardian

Only had the Guardian a wee while so no idea on durability but it goes on and comes off sooo easy.. Collinite for VFM and longevity as I don't have time to spend on the other 2 cars for working 2 jobs :moonie: :lol:

Collinite 915. Looks great and lasts ages. Also really easy to apply and remove.

I've got say the dodo juice panel pots are easy to work with and offer the chance to change your wax if you fancy it. I'm surprised more companies haven't cottoned on to that yet.
Cooper S - Dodo Juice Blue vervet
Mini GP - Dodo Juice blue velvet on body, orange crush on wing mirrors and diamond white on the roof ..
Just got a tester pot of AF illusion so going to try that next time I get the chance.
Not much between all the waxes IMO it's how good the prep is that makes the difference :)

^^ This is truer than some may think - claying etc brings up a bigger shine than wax

Collinite 476s - winter
Various dodo juce - summer

Thinking of buyin a liquid type next time just for speed, wipe on wipe off type.
Few friends have gone down the synthetic sealant coating type products, seem to last loads longer

I've just moved from Black Light back to Pinnacle Liquid Souverän.

It may be a 6 year old bottle of wax but ithe shine is better than the Black Light.

SupaGuard. One treatment lasts 5 years. :thumbs up:

I jest, I jest.

Currently use a Blackfire wax. Midnight Sun I think it is. Very easy to apply, no dust, very easy to remove and very durable.

Yeah a sealant will last loads longer the only hassle is getting it off if you want to sort marks etc on the car ..

I swore by the Werkstat acrylic set from Polished Bliss on the RCZ. Gives fantastic results and so easy to use!!!

But I think I'll stick to my Dodo Juice Supernatural was for the MINI. Nae cheap but lasts for ages. I was also tempted by Banana Armour ...might buy a tester pot to try it out. I'm a sucker for Dodo's fine smells!

Yeah you'll get at least 6-7 if not more applications from a panel pot Donna :)

Where are you guys all buying your products from? I see a few of you seem to be using the same stuff i.e Dodo products! I've always used Meguirs stuff, think I might have to give some dodo juice a go. :scratch:

I buy my stuff from eBay out of sheer laziness

Nothing wrong with eBay especially if it's a bargain :)
Dodo juice is the same price usually wherever you buy it eBay or shop just make sure it's the real deal if buying from eBay :)

Ultimate Finish is a good site that often have offers on and free stuff, plus they have a loyalty scheme....more you buy, bigger the discount (thats my excuse)
Polished Bliss is fantastic, free delivery and their site has great 'how to's for each product.
I buy a fair bit from AM Details too.

Lots of the big companies such as CYC, i4detailing, Elite, iShine or Juicy Detailing will all no doubt see your stuff arrive on time. There's also USA in Stirling that are a stockist of Dodo Juice and top end detailing stuff too.
Some eBay sellers will also do free next day delivery too .. :);)
