Best wax for petrol blue??

[PP200t]

Hi all,

After some decent but not expensive wax for my petrol blue. I want to give it some depth and wetness etc, but will be applying by hand.
Any advice would be great please?

Thanks

I'm a big fan of this stuff on darker colours:

smaller pots are available if that's too much.

But would it be ok on PB, as it's dull but light and bright?

It will look good, that's what I would also recommend

Vics is good Not the best durability but whatever.

also wax is wax. Generally speaking. obviously theres a difference between Glasur and Colly 476s..........

What are you looking for (more) protection or finish? as there's lots out there which will make the car look stunning, but won't last very long.

Hi but that is like writing in Spanish to me!!!

Well I don't know really. I want to clay it first as the rear especially after washing feels rough to touch. Then something that lasts a bit but gives a really nice shine and depth. But not too expensive!

I always tell people to start out on FK1000p. lasts a while, cheap, not exactly a boutique wax but if you decide to move onto other things then youve got FK for doorshuts and wheels still.

Be prepared for a lot of different opinions also.

I'd rather use AG HD wax that Colli or FK. I think of it as the fancier version with similar durability. I really rate AG HD.

Blackfire Sealant on Petrol Blue for me, on top of GEP if you can stretch to it (£48 for the pair) if not, SRP or whatever you have should be okay as a base.

Right so it's either black fire or fk. I will look into those, thanks. (tho the £48 tag is upsetting my wallet)
Second question, I've seen ordinary clay on eBay and dodo clay there. Is the cheap clay rubbish?

 

[RussZS]

Do you have a link? If you want a cost effective clay, then look at Bilt Hamber Soft, which is £11 for a large 200G bar (you can cut it into 4)

Blackfire Sealant on its own is £30

If you want a clay from the same seller, then I'd recommend this:

Blackfire is here:

Yeah the clay bar is item no' 260859498359

Am I right in thinking fine is 'safer'?
