Dont disagree that autoglym is good - especially the HD wax!!! My choice is Meguiars, always used it and never disappointed with the results!!!

However, I must confess I am a bit of a detailing freak, so here is my routine for preparing for the shows:

Washed with snowfoam and rinsed off, clay barred with Meguiars detailing clay (only once a year now)

Washed again with snowfoam and rinsed

Wash with Meguiars Ultimate wash and wax - 2 bucket method and lambswool mits - this is fantastic stuff if you haven't got the time or cant be bothered with all the waxing and polishing.

Polish with Meguiars Swirl-X

Polish again with Meguairs Ultimate Polish

Seal with Meguiars no 7

wax - now this is where I have had a change - Dodo Juice Blue velvet pot wax (love the results of this)

Detail with Meguiars Ultimate detailer

Dash cleaned with Poorboys natural look interior cleaner

Tyres trimmed with Meguiars Endurance Tyre Gel

Exterior / Engine hoses and plastics - trimmed with Meguiars trim detailer

And breath........... think thats it

Oh no forgot glass cleaner and Plasti-X but you get the picture and No I dont work for Meguiars :lol:

I'm a meguairs convert too. Use the clay treatment every 6 months or so.

 

My routine is a bit less thorough than yours....

 

Rinse

Wash with Meguairs next gen car shampoo

Rinse, dry

clay with Meguairs clay bar, using Meguairs speed detailer as lube

Polish with autoglym resin polish....good at hiding those swirls

wax with dodo juice

 

alloys treated with Meguairs spray on cleaner, then autoglym alloy wheel seal

Tyres treated with Meguairs endurance tyre gel

Glass polished with autoglym glass polish

 

Also use Meguairs ultimate compound to remove those paint imperfections and light scratches....it really is magic stuff.

 

Think that's about the lot  :unsure:

autoglym is good but dodo juice is better :-) I use poor boys black hole polish followed by dodo juice purple haze. Leaves the paint like glass and very smooth

Wanting to get full dodo juice set when poorboys polish runs out
