Nice beading. What wax do you use?

Can't remember the wax, haven't done that for ages, but I wash and give it a quick once over with meguires ultimate quick detailer, there's a thread on here somewhere, wonderful stuff :)

Oh yeh I have used that before but slightly different use. I layer up meguiars tech (synthetic) wax and "smart" carnuba wax. Makes the car really pop as the tech wax brings out the base colour and carnuba makes the flecks sparkle

I've being using Maguiars ultimate fast finish on the BMW, very impressive results, as so easy to apply, you don't have to polish it off!

Shame they had to go and f*ck up the whole idea with the later 4200, nothing wrong with 4200's though, they just lack the expensive old school Maser style!

Will have to try that one, you just apply it?

Basically, yes.
Comes in a spray can with a microfibre cloth.
Couple of sprays on the cloth (not the car), and wipe the cloth over a panel, done!
Search on YouTube.
The shine and water beading is excellent.

So do you do it instead of wax or can you wax and then do on top to add more shine.

You can use it on top of existing coatings, but best straight on top of prepped clear coat.
So I clayed, then 80/20 de-ionised water/alcohol to remove any remaining polish/wax, then apply.
That easy. It's only £15 a can at Halfords.
