Ok, after wash & dry etc. polished using Poorboys black hole (one application), then a coat of Collinite 845 insulator wax. Question is how often should I apply more wax. Is it normal to wax after each wash and also can I apply the poor boys black hole after washing or do I have to make sure all the wax is removed first (if so how many washes would that normally take).Thanks.

Collinite say 845 ought to last 5 - 7 months under normal conditions. It sounds like what you want is a quck detailer to use at the end of each wash to maintain maximum shine. If so head over to the detailingworld site, they'll have the answer .
Thanks for that, I'll have a look there later. Would it still be ok to build up layers of the wax ? This isn't a car that is used daily and doesn't get dirty too often so just wondered if building coats of wax to get deep shine is ok. thumbup
