this is what Rich advised me when I emailed him with a similar question


"You can do this with a strong all purpose cleaner like P21S Total Auto Wash - simply wash the car, dry off, spray on product (make sure car is out of full sun, do not let dry on car), leave for 10 mins, wipe over with a clean, wet mitt and then rinse off before washing again as normal - this should leave the paint squeeky clean ready for the glaze."

Thanks for that - struggling to find time to get on regularly this week - too many e-mails and orders! An alternative method is to add 50ml of product to a normal bucket of suds, although this will dry your hands out and make the mitt feel funny compared to normal. I still prefer the spray on, hose off method, but it does use up a lot more product.

So, so. The wax is a favourite in some circles, but the durability is poor. The wheel cleaners are some of the best around, and I intend to introduce them to the store soon (replacing Menzerna Gel 7.5, which is good, but not as good as the products by P21S).
