Default What Wax?????

Hi all,

After a bit of advice on what wax people would recommend for use on mine & my g'friends cars (see pics)? I'm after a nice deep wet finish. My usual procedure at the mo is Megs Step 1 paint cleaner, then AG Deep Shine, then AG hard wax/Extra gloss (2 coats of this). I recently tried a sample of Megs Gold Class wax, and the depth of the paintwork increased. Apart from this is there anything anyone can recommend for silver for application & removal by hand!?!?

My current favourite products on silver and light to mid metallic greys are the JEFFS Werkstatt twins - the standard version of Prime applied every six months topped with regular coats of Acrylic Jett Trigger (after every other wash). This combo gives a dripping wet, glossy finish whilst still allowing the flake to really stand out in the sun - haven't found anything better than these products on my car, and I've been looking a long time.

Thanks for the replies, sorry I should really look past the end of my nose for previous posts


So next question, having applied about 3 layers of AG liquid hardwax over the last 4 months, and a coating of Megs Gold Class liquid wax about 3 weeks ago, what steps should i take to prep the car for the Jeffs Werkstatt twins treatment??

***edit***

Once again i've asked a question that's already been answered, doh! So the Jeffs Prime will suffice in preping the paint even though I have applied the above?

Matt

Yep, JEFFS Prime strips everything, so is an ideal basecoat product.
