    I dry mine with a Pakshak Waffle weave drying towel, its like the Meguiars one but about twice the size. I find fake chamios ok though, the autoglym one aint to bad, not as paint freindly as a mf drying towel. I wouldnt polish over the stripes with any abrassive polish just in case, but...

    Brazo as you have been giving it go for it! If #16 has not added to the look of the NXT I wouldnt waste my time as doing that as an extra step. The only really purpose of adding a Carnuba topper to a sealant like NXT is for a bit of xtra depth and gloss, the NXT will last longer than the wax...

    Brazo, Megs nxt then 16 trust me you will love it! As for Zymol, i have been there paid the extra £££ and gone back to the above. The Zymol gave me nothing extra apart from a lighter pocket! I guess its one of those things we all have to try out for ourselves. Like me with the Pinnacle its...

    I will keep an eye out. AFAIK you can get mothers in the Uk without importing it. I will see if I can find the link. I order a fair bit from the US as long as you get them to send it you as a gift, you can avoid the import duties! My next purchase will be some Souverän Paste Wax...

    Any good carnuba wax should wipe off okay at this time off year if its not too damp and cold out. Good pure Carnuba waxes like P21s, Meguiars #16, Poorboys, so at a guess Zymol too ( not brought any for years as there is as good for alot less £££) are great as there is no cure time wipe on...

    Age old cleaning question.

    P21s Wax is a fantastic product. Wipes on off with so much ease. Best wax I have ever used. Best off using it over a sealant such as NXT or Autoglym Extra gloss at this time of year though as Carnuba isnt that durable.

    182 in for warranty work !!!!

    Just ask them or tell them not to wash you cars even if they are dirty. Nothing worse than dealer inflicted swirls.

    Nothing to lose...... The salesman said they are desperate to sell cars at this time a year. Even though I have requested March 1st delivery it still is a December sale.
