So after a good few years I've just finished my current wax - R222 100% carnuba. I've always found it a doddle to apply and remove and gives a terrific shine.
The car lives in a garage so durability isn't the biggest concern, but as it's nearly 50 quid a tub I wanted some views on alternatives, and if wax was even still a thing with all this ceramic shizz flying around.

It's a 20 year old M Coupe in LSB, so it's a flat colour rather than metallic.

This was the first one to spring to mind given durability isn't a consideration -

Bilt Hamber double speed.

Good price, lasts for ages. Wins equivalent comparison tests regularly.

I’ve always been a Dodo Juice wax user, but recently discovered Bouncers, which was also a joy to use and with good longevity.

Used Bilt Hamber and Collinite 476 and both perform well but BH needed more elbow grease to remove.

Good to see there are plenty of waxers still about.

OK cheers for the feedback - will have a look at the options. That BH double speed does seem popular.

Considered a quick detailer if durability isn't a concern?
Forensic detailing has done a test on some.
