    Polishing/Waxing! (Artic blue 182 FF)... Your opinions please!

    Would not use either ! Wash AG Tar Remover Clay Meguiars Scratch X or Carlack Hand Polishing bundle if working by hand in the areas needed. Autoglym Super Resin Polish to the whole of the car Autoglym Extra Gloss Protection to seal Nice coat of carnauba wax as an extra step for the final look...

    A good abrasive polish?

    The joys of hard VW paint. I have not tried anything more than Menzerna Powergloss by PC and even that was not very successful. When working with Brazo I have seen him crack out the Megs #84 but the rotary has the balls to break it down, be careful choosing harder compounds to try and make them...

    Removal of polish from black plastic?

    Unfortunately AG Vinyl And Rubber/Tyre Dressing and Bumper Care Gel will all just hide it till they wear/wash off.

    RB - Wax

    I grabbed a pot of the Orange Crush for a mate and he likes it on his Red Pug. We did a panel with that, a panel with He seems to like it. the OC and one with Onyx and again struggled to see any difference.

    RB - Wax

    The added colour annoys me as soon as I have done half a panel. It is not as easy to apply as any of the 3 above. I used it a few weeks ago on the GTi and ended up rewaxing the next day with Vics Concours on Blue. Since buying the GTi by default I seem to reach for the Vics or P21s at the...

    RB - Wax

    All Dodos look 99.9999% the same on any colour, all marketing bullshit - if you get one get one without loads of added colour it is like using T Cut Colour magic if you get a dark one !

    You need something pre the pre wax and sealant stages to get the best out of your paint. Decent machine polish with something like Menzerna Intensive Polish and Final Finish will create a much better look than and make a much bigger difference in your cars overall look than spending money on...

    Onyx - about £40 quid, Vics Concours around £20. Both leave a decent gloss, the Onyx adding a touch more depth. If you looking for a big increase in looks you money would best be spent in the polishing stages.

    Wax...

    The main looks are in the prep stage if you want more gloss the main bulk is created in the polishing, no sealant or wax will add much more than the final few percent of the overall look.

    Neither ! Swisswax Onyx or Victoria Concours. As for foam hand pads, the yellow Megs type ones are just fine.

    Durability Of EGP

    Gives me a good 3 months at least here. I only use it on wheels now which means they get a one coat initially and maybe an a additional layer from time to time after a wash. Should leave it 12-24 hours between layers hence why I don't bother using it much other than on wheels these days when I...
