Meister Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Alex - Swissvax is obscene money to buy, but IMO it's the best wax available bar none. It's that good you could eat it ( you'll know what I mean when you smell it! ). One tip with this stuff is to use the swissvax cleaner fluid first, then use Onyx and then leave the car out in direct sunlight for a couple of hours the results are amazing. Did you have to sell a testicle to buy it???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dennis Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Swissvax is great, I started with just 1 pot and it went down hill from that, I currently have a pot of mirage (for the normal cars) I also have a bucket with grit guard and lid, folding bucket (lives in the boot of the Elise for shows), a pot of autobahn, paint cleaner, paint cleaner professional, autobahn and a nice pot of 'best of show' (along with their applicators and blue microfibres) Wow the best of show really is something else but it is also silly expensive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With regards to what use with the wax, he said the polish I'm using is decent enough and should give good results when used with the wax. It smells awesome as does wash stuff.

richbk Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 I drive mine and wash it when it gets very dirty, Then drive it some more, living near the peaks and endless rural roads covered in cow poo and farming detritus my car never stays clean for long so I can't bring myself to spend hours polishing when I know it's going to look dirty after 10 minutes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cleaned mine Wednesday, went on a trip to Bishop's Castle yesterday & returned via some very rural back-roads. Got sprayed with cow/pig shit... Won't be cleaning it for a while.....

However I enjoy cleaning it. It's normally ditched, lives outside and driven hard. However it's nice to have a clean car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
