I agree with Steve
All this off the shelf stuff is crap.
Get your car detailed properly and then use a good brazilian carnuba gold wax to protect it.
It works out pretty cheap and easily outlasts any of the off the shelf products.
Heres the results of the Brazilian carnuba wax
The "V6" Badge has since dropped off.
The "24V" Badge also dropped off.

[QUOTE=200bubs;66855]robbing my jobs Bob lol,
and to every one that is reccomending autoglym super resin polish, i personally do not reccomend this as this polish is full of fillers and the durability of it is absolutley rubbish,

The reason why is probably because you are not using the hardner, if you dont use this then in my opinion you are doing are half assed job and the finish will be gone in about a week.
With the hardner it will last a few months

and to every one that is reccomending autoglym super resin polish, i personally do not reccomend this as this polish is full of fillers and the durability of it is absolutley rubbish, and also increases swirl marks in your paint from all the cutting additives in it, if you are after some good off the shelf polish then do a search for these polishes:
sonus
dodo juice
menzerna
and if you have got a lot of money then Zymol
i use all these products above and highly reccomend them, and by using the right products you can achieve finishes like this i did to a forum members car:

that looks fooking sexy!!!!
