Going by that result I will get a bottle of auto glym polish followed by a top coat of collinite. Thanks. Cars look great btw

For hand polish, auto glum super resin is good as it also temporarily masks swirls due to the type of polish it is. The follow by a nice wax. If your car has never been flayed before, I would highly recommend this. The difference flaying make is night and day. The surface will be super clean.

Sure to whip up a storm of controversy with that comment! Anyhoo; I keep Alison's body in great shape using Meguiars NXT. Lasts well!

Autoglym Super Resin Polish is excellent, but follow up with a sealant like Extra Gloss for best results.

Autoglym High Definition wax also produces great results.

I have used Bilt Hamber recently and been very impressed with the results.

Another fan of Collinite here. A good coat of 476s lasts for months, even through the worst of winters, and looks pretty good as well.

I second the Pledge route too. I do mine every week after washing the car and it brings it up a treat. It only takes around 15 minutes to do. If you Google it you'd be surprised how popular it is in the car forums.
