1) Dunno mate

2) Autogylm Super Resin Polish or for full effect after add 2 coats of Ultra deep shine (as 1 makes it look matted and worse imo).

[punto_matt]

Are you gonna polish, then seal it and wax it afterwards?

 

[nathant1]

yes...

once given a good idea of the top notch products

 

[punto_matt]

I could give you a list of products that will easily costs a few hundred quid is that ok?

 

[nathant1]

thats a tad pricey...
i meen more like 10-20 an item

 

[punto_matt]

I meant a few hundred quid overall. What products do you have so far?

 

[nathant1]

mainly just autoglym and turtlewax products some colour restorer and scratch remover from my old car.
only had the grande since friday
my dads told me to get sum "mer"? wax says it supposed to be really good

u cant use that on these can you btw?

 

[punto_matt]

Personally i would ditch the turtle wax stuff as its crap. Autoglym super resing polish and Glass polish are there only 2 products i use.

What is your usual routine to cleaning and drying the car?

 

[nathant1]

havent done the new 1 yet
since the showroom and its been **** weather/snowing
but normally

rinse
wash
rinse
chamois
wheels
clean windows
this blue stuff i had (old car)
turtlewax wax

 

[punto_matt]

Right im presuming your washing with a sponge? If so ditch that along with the chamois. Have you got msn mate as its alot easier for my to run through it all on there with you? Look in my profile for my MSN and add me

dont Use Ultra Deep Shine with Super Resin Polish

UDS is a one coat product if your going to use SRP you top it off with Extra gloss protection

my personal favourtite at the moment
