Used it before didnt think a great deal of it gfs stepdad swears by it. What about the Auto Glym ultra Deep shine and their super resin polish you tried that?

hello mate i go for meguiars all day long its the absolute bo**ocks, the 3 step one it comprises of a paint cleaner,polish and a carnuba wax theyre about 7 quid each bottle but the results are astounding if u have a look in members cars section theres a few pics of mine and my dads yellow zs's they were both done with the 3 step on saturday:thumbsup:

hehe, weel done fella. Though even since i wrote that review my opinion of the step 2 polish has got worse i would really recommend the 1st an 3rd step but get a different polish as it is imo a tad ****:)

nope, not tried anything else only ever used t-cut and turtle wax as its always been ok, never used it on a red car untill today. it was ok on my old blues, green, ect but just not my red.

is it better to use a colour coded polish or a white polish???

Used Meguiars Gold Class polish for the first time last summer - Expensive, but the shine is amazing.

Dodo juice will give you fantastic results

MER stuff is pants hard to remove and leaves a uneven shine. i bought some a while back and i have only used it a few times, if you cover the postage you can have it, give it a try then chuck it in the bin. Auto Glym super resin polish is the best stuff that i have used you only need to apply it twice a year once in the winter and once in the summer after that Auto Glym Bodywork shampoo and chami dry and my car comes up a treat.

also u shouldnt use t cut shame on u

same with autoglym super resin polish, dont use it too often as it has a cutting compound in it and will soon wear away your clear coat, the thing with red cars it that they fade really easy, even worse when it is summer, so the way to stop this is to use a polish and wax plus a sealant, what i would reccomend to you is:

menzerna IP for the prep, this will bring the colour back and bring out the depth of the shine http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/polishing/polish/menzerna-250ml/menzerna-intensive-polish-po85rd-3-02-/prod_229.html

go over this with a decent wax, collinite 476 is a very good and long lasting wax, i personally use zymol but its a tad expensive - collinite here: http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/wax/collinite-no-476s-super-doublecoat-auto-wax/prod_207.html

then top this off with a durable selant which will help stop the sun from fading the paint : http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/sealants/carlack-68-long-life-sealant/prod_355.html

or you could try an all in one polish like this:

Guess I should stop using the super resin polish once a week then!!!

[Jay-ZS+]

Would you just replace it with that last one the all in one? That collinite 476 looks like the stuff my grandad gave me when I got my first car was a real f***er to get off so only the bonnet ever got waxed lol :laugh: Is that a hard or soft wax?

[Steves Cleenz]

you can do, but with the extra wax going on then its extra protection
