Hi Guys & Girls

just a quick question

Who's using what wax on there motors ? I've tried Autoglym & Zymol both I find very hard to buff up. Is anyone else using anything thats easy but good or do I just have to struggle on with it being solid black & a pain to keep clean.

Cheers hope for help Kenny

swissol is really good, heartily recommended

Meguires Gold Class is a great wax as well.

Indeed it is, but I would use a higher quality wax for the MINI. My first preference is Zaino's products.

Kenny,

You must try the Zaino. The only reason I decided to go all Black (other that I liked the look) was I knew that Zaino products would help me keep it looking great with a minimum of fuss.

I don't know anyone in the UK who stocks Zaino. I know they can ship, but I'd sooner buy local.

MINI have their own brand wax which you can get from your dealer. The results are good and it is easily the easiest wax I've ever used.

I'm now using Meguires Gold Class, with their clothes to put it on & get it off miles better

Meguiar's Premium Medallion is what I have been using for years. Recommended to me by a certified MB body shop. It is very easy to apply on/buff off and lasts a long, long time. Try it!

Hey Paul,

No one in the UK would stock Zaino. Zaino is an internet only company so they can keep costs down. Just been reading it on their site.

Looks impressive stuff. I may have to make a purchase. Fed up with the swirl marks on my Chilli Red

Liquid Glass.
Won't use anything else.
Best bird poo protection I've found.

Just out of interest obehave have you used Zaino, Zymol or Meguires to compare or have you just found Liquid Glass to be good?

Stockists???
