Collinite.

25 quid a tin, lasts for months and the deep glossy shine it gives my car is truly amazing.

IMO it's very hard to tell the difference betweem waxes if the clear coat/top coat has been polished properly first. Thats the key IMO.

Poorboys Natty's Blue paste wax. Because I am a poor boy.

As said above, the work prior to waxing makes a huge difference - hence I have a boxful of clay, cleansers, polishes, sealant and various means of applying and removing said products!

The key to a nice finish is not the wax, it's the preparation that goes into getting the paint under the wax as near to perfect as practical.

I use either Collinite, Supernatural or one of the Zaino sealants, depending on what is being asked/paid for.

As already said to notice any real difference you'll need the paintwork as blemish free as possible.

Personally i use all sorts of products. Dodo waxes are the favourite - the whole range. Other than that Poorboys Natty's is very good, I also use Werkstatt products as well as Zymol Glasseur and Creme.

I use loads of products before waxing but its Collinite that I use for the wax.

Its great, I've used some much MUCH more expensive waxes and this stuff beats it all hands down IMO.

Another Poor Boy here, Natty Blue wax is good stuff.

Be interested to know which polishes / sealants people are using with it, Autoglym EGP seems OK to me but maybe there's better?

No need since Collinite is as duarable as a number of sealants, which isn't hard to see why, given that it's more a hybrid polymer wax as opposed to a more traditional type.
Quite detergent resistant too.
