Easy polish/wax by hand?

[_Tom]

Is there such a thing? I cleaned and waxed the TT on the weekend and it was killer. As soon as the wax was on, it was a nightmare to get off. Saying that I only had some old "Auto smart Carnauba Gold wax" stuff in the cupboard.

Is there anything I can buy that gives good results but easy to use by hand?

Dodo Juice products are great, can wax in direct sunlight too and I have never had an issue. I used purple haze on my black Fiesta, not sure what their best wax is for silver though

Have you thought about a spray sealant?

Much easier & quicker to apply.

Autoglym HD wax was a doddle to use. Was it not the ridiculous heat causing problems?

I do it all by hand. I reckon it was the heat.

Auto finesse illusion is really easy to use

No I haven't. Any recommendations for grey/silver?

No mate. I was out at 8am and in the shade.

Auto Finesse Tough Coat also gets mentioned a fair bit.

Although I haven't used Carpro Reload it seems to get rave reviews and with 20% it could be a good choice. Discount Code Waxstock20

Tom, use Triple followed by a spray sealant like CarPro Reload or GTechniq C2V3. Easiest application and removal (you'll get round the car in an hour or so max, after washed and dried) and it's the best for results I've seen.

If you've got a Silver/Grey/Light coloured car, go with a sealant rather than wax.

Don't look any further than this; http://www.polishedbliss.co.uk/acatalog/werkstat-acrylic-kit-cat1.html

It will hands down be one of the best things you buy for your car!

All as above, simple for any level of user and and weather. would also suggest AF Toughcoat as another alternative spray sealant.

If you're wanting a wax, most will not play well if over applied, left too long, left in the sun. If the new AF wax (Essence?) is as similar as illusion then this would be a contender, also bouncers 22 is pretty easy going.

Well, I just ordered some triple and C2V3 so I'll give that a go..

If u want a lovely wax to use at a great price I cant recommend britemax vantage highly enough

If your like me that will be the last time you'll wax a car again.

Sealants are the future.
