Title: Victoria Concours Wax, where to buy?
Post by: Mandy on March 04, 2012, 12:34:02 pm

Does anybody know anywhere else that sells the Victoria Concours Wax besides Cleanyourcar website?

Read some good reviews so want to give it a go for the summer.

I found mine on eBay but that's some time ago. Was cheaper too.

Thanks Boothy, I'm surprised they're not all over ebay, you can find almost anything on ebay. :grin:

Luckily managed to bid on the only one that was on ebay.

Look forward to trying it out, I've been reading online about applying wax to the car with bare hands, looks like it could be fun so might try that too. :signLOL:

TBH only a few waxes benefit from bare hand application and that's because the warmth of the hands starts a reaction.

I tried applying by hand and all I found was that it took too long and I used too much product which was then a pain to buff off.

Me too but it might be because the weather has been to cold?

Any suggestions for applying at this time of year?

Use a foam pad applicator, spritz it lightly with some quick detailer, apply thinly as possible.
