    Hey guys.

    Just bought an S3 in metallic black and was wondering what would be a good wax to use. I just remember my first car (polo in magic black) was a right a$$ to wax cos you always end up with speccy white bits everywhere and white streaks in all the panel gaps

    Dont wanna spend propper bucks on some wax, just something that'll be good for met black and a bit less hassle than the usual stuff. any recommendations?

    Hi
    Try Valentines Road and Track or for a better finish Valenitines Concours.
    If you are interested, I can give you the details of a supplier.

    Depends on how much you want to spend!, Dodojuice's Purple Haze is very good and reasonably priced, Swissvax waxes are excellent, as are R222 and Raceglaze Signature series.

    For ease of use Swissvax !

    A glaze after polish with a sealant topped with wax. Ag wax is good over egp. If you use a proper paint cleaner and a pre wax clenser you will be stunned with the results.
    The better your decon process the more clarity and wetness can be achieved with your finish. Set yourself a budget and choose a wax then go for it
