If you're applying it by hand, what do you use, and also what do you use to buff it up?  :confused:

Not long i wash the car dry it then start polishing its all done in a few hours including dressing the plastic bits/tyres etc and hoovering

essoman:
Purple haze,the soft wax is better suited to use during the summer months and the blue velvet,the hard wax is more durable and therefore more suited as a winter use coat.

I have used both on my Black pearl and have been mightly impressed.The purple haze certainly goes on easier and would echo what others have said re less is more.

not tried the supernatural but may give it go.

SimonBash:
What ever you do, do not apply wax with a machine polisher!

Despite some common misconceptions, wax adds very little if anything to the finish, it is merely protection. All the results are achieved in the prep.

I personally like dodo waxes, specially rainforest rub as it is very easy to apply and remove, durability is fine. However for as good results and better protection I would go for a spray sealant like Auto Finesse Tough Coat. Really easy to apply/remove and it can be layered much quicker than waxes.

I have had various Swissvax and Zymol waxes in my collection but now use Tough Coat almost exclusively.
