Looks identical to

Whilst it is very good stuff, the Swissol stuff I have is even better. Down side is Swissol is £60 for a pot 1/3rd of the size....!

I 'polished my Nob' as my missus refers to it as yesterday as well, and then it rained. Arse.

the stuff i bought was £17 for a 400 gram tin.the other one was £16 200 gran tin Mmmmmmmmmmmm.

£16 for 200 Grannies. Bargin.



There is some science behind the more expensive ones (but a lot of psudeo science IMHO). There are quite a few different waxes that can be used to make up the product - the cheaper ones just seem to be a single Carnauba wax, the more expensive ones are a blend of different types, and there is a big difference in consisitency between the cheap and expensive Swissol ones. There is also a noticable improvement in shine between them, but after a week on the road you would struggle to tell the difference to be honest.

....Untill the next clean, thats when the £80/pot stuff kicks in. The Swissol Wax Gets my vote - not for every wax, but twice a year is good enough.

Not tried anything as expensive as the products above (3k car and £60 quid wax doesn't seem worth it IMHO ), but i have used Meguiars #16 Paste Wax. Found it an excelent product, so long as the car was treated properly in the first place. I always use an ultra fine clay bar, then a paintwork cleanser (prob not needed), then the wax. time consuming thats for sure but very impressed with what it costs. I found that buying really good quality microfibre drying and buffing towels really helped too. I first used this Kit with the above wax and was very happy for price/performance.
