This stuff really does look amazing.

When it arrives dont be put off by the tiny bottle that you get. It really does last for ages and you dont need very much. You will never use the autoglym stuff again.
Donate your autoglym bumper gel to a neighbour or such like.

Also been looking again at waxes. Think I've settled on the Chemical Guys 50/50 or the Pete's 53 stuff. Gonna draw up a shopping list and post it up on the "Wax Or Polish" thread for opinions before purchase. Not buying Polish for just now. Weather is too crap to polish anyway.:mad:

I have used Petes53 before and it seemed to leave a nice finish.
I found it a bit crumbly when trying to remove it from the tub though.

You could buy Zymol Carbon for £46 but you would still need Zymol HD Cleanse to put on as a pre wax cleanser before the 1st application and it is about £39.

If you dont want to go the Zymol route I have heard good reports about DoDo Juice althogh I have never actually used it.

Ian, I've replied to this on the "to wax or polish" thread. Just to keep this on-topic for Black Now discussions. Was my mistake to draw this thread to Waxing. Sorry.

remember as Ian said when using black wow just use a petit pea size drop.

For wax, have a look at Collinite 476 too, excellent finish and looking very durable in this weather.

I applied it (one coat) about 2 months ago, still beading like mad.

Just used Black Wow for the first time today.

Spent all afternoon washing, drying and generally cleaning up all three cars.

I used Black Wow on the two MINI's black trim.

Goes on very easy - way easier than the Autoglym stuff, or peanut oil, and like others have said earlier in this thread, you only used a tiny amount each time you put it on the cloth. After two cars, the bottle doesn't look like any has come out of it.

I would have taken pics, but by the time we were finishing off getting a coat of Blackfire wax on the red MINI it was getting very dark.

If I get a chance, I'll get a couple of photo's tomorrow.

Can anyone report on the durability of this stuff yet?
