Hi,
I use Autoglym super resin polish on mine. The paintwork was terrible when I got it and I used Autoglym paint restorer first. Between waxes I wash with Autoglym wash-stuff (can’t remember exact name!!).
Have tried other brands before (turtle wax etc) and Autoglym is always worth the extra dosh!
I have heard Carnuba wax is the mutts nuts, may try this in the summer…
I’m also an Autoglym man. I find all there products very good.Mind you, if the paint is really bad you may have to go the whole hog and start with a clay bar. Look at the detailing forum for full instructions if you feel keen enough!
I’m an Autoglym man too. There’s a product for just about anything to do with cleaning a car so no need to use lesser brands, after all, Aston Martin and Jaguar can’t really be wrong so it’ll do for me
Cheers
Ben
Autoglym super resin is a good glaze polish. It has slight filling properties when used with a DA polishing machine, thus reducing swirls and and holograms… you can do it without the machine but it will wear you out…[;)]
A good quality carnuba wax laid over a glaze will help the shine stay for a few months, as long as you use a good quality shampoo.
Try Meguires gold class shampoo with the 2 bucket method using a microfibre mitt. This won’t strip the carnuba. Halfrauds usually have a buy 3 get the cheapest free offer on polishing stuff, the Meguires clay bar kit is a good starting point… but be very aware it leaads to OCD. Do the above and black will gleam.
I use Autoglym shampoo to wash, but must admit i’m still a ‘Megiuars Man’.
The ‘three stage’ stuff I find works really well for me (IMO).
This is my black Mk1 after using Megiuars (My car is a daily drive too) …
Very nice Ady. I like the red heavily-modded '5 parked next to you!
It was lovely !! first and probably last time i’ll be parked between a Mustang and a Viper !!
I thought my twin exhausts sounding great, but felt ever so inferior when they started there engines !! [:|]
Back on topic … still a Megiuars Man [;)]
Ady, the car looks stunning. have to agree with you, Megs is excellent and IMO has taken over from Auto Glym, I use all sorts Megs, Sonus, Clearkote, chemical guys and Dodo Juice all dependant on car colour etc
Costs a bloody fortune [:)] but shiney shiney cars are worth it.
I’m a Megiuars Man
I’ll stick with zymol

Me too
OOPS! Technical fault somewhere.
On my last MX5, it was black with iffy paint. I used Autoglym Ultra Deep Shine and got a really good result.
