    Not me, maybe get a car and a half from the sample pot or car and alloys?

      What is the difference between a "sealant" and a wax when it comes to cleaning the car?

        I think the wax gives a better shine but doesn't last as long, sealant last longer more durable, but shine not as deep..I think!!:confused:

            The wax provides no shine at all Mark.
            Polish for the shine, wax to protect the shine.

            A sealant is predominantly applied to clean, bare paint ie, no polish required then the sealant is applied. This provides shine and protection combined. I tend to use sealants in the spring/summer and a polish and wax combo in autumn/winter. The wax provides extra protection against the winter salt and grit.

              I find it funny when the seller of waxs claim that this wax will give the best shine that they have ever seen

                  Whilst we're on the subject of winter waxes Andy, what do you recommend? I know it's still a while away yet but I like to be prepared!

                    Have a look at FK1000P or Collinite 476S.
                    The 476 imported directly from New York is renowned for it's legendary durability. For the winter months it is almost the perfect car wax because not only does it leave a mirror wet finish but it also protects like no other carnauba based wax. After two layers this wax has been know to last well in excess of 6 months beading water which simply rolls off the car.

                              Got some Colli last night and had a little try this morning and beads well.
