Just finished the car used, turtlewax platinum car wash, followed by autoglym's aqua wax, and then meguiars hot shine for wheels, and the finish is very nice, the wax is good because you spray it on whilst the car is wet then buff dry, it saves alot of work, wanted to get the meguiar's wax but my back is not up to the job at the moment.

Nice and shiny :D.

Nice :cool:

The spray waxes are good value to save time, but they don't last as long as the real deal :wink:

My Meguiars wax coat lasts 12 months and probably longer, I was surprised how long it lasts, even though I have about 8 months of rain and snow and salt :wink:

I applied NXT to our 207 yesterday, it has a full length glass roof that saves some time, but it still only took me 30 minutes to do the waxing and buffing, even in my yet-to-be-fully-fit state. Took an hour or more to clean it first of course.
