And the winner is.................Andy's New Orleans one. I would say that though, since I'm bound to be biased and I'm sure ffoxy'll be along to vote blue too

My pleasure. Though having cleaned and waxed my daughter's black Mk2 Punto today, it was a close run thing with Matt's black'un.

you got anything to treat your new GP with yet?

if not for a new car (providing Fiat dont manage to Muller the paintwork on the PDI)

(the soft one)

and

after (ideally 2 coats several hours apart)

will give it stacks of protection and a nice deep shine and hide any faint swirls if there are any

(and no i don't work for them but its great stuff made in the UK :worship

Oddly enough I've been planning on ordering their kit before it comes(25th Nov, woohoo!). I did my car yesterday with Turtlewax Ice(good enough for a Ford) which I've used for a bit. Being crocked physically, it's easy to use. Almost like a quick detail product. But the GP will be specially treated and loved, so deserves better products! :worship:

my dads told me to get sum "mer"? wax says it supposed to be really good

yeah its as good as autoglym super resin polish, if a little more difficult to apply.

personally i dont use either of them because they elae a white residue that drives me crazy. i only use a carnauba wax, it leaves no residue and lasts a longer than mer/autoglym. it isnt as easy to apply if you want great results, but once its on you're good for many months.

SRP isnt meant to be used as a wax though. You would polish then wax.

usually people choose a polish or a wax because using one will remove the other

 

[punto_matt]

You polish then wax. Wax will just go ontop of the polish and not remove it.
