Default what to buy.....? quick question here

I was at a car show at the weekend and noticed people spraying there cars with some sort of meguiars and then wiping over with a microfiber.

i have had a quick look around the net and have found a couple of different ones.

what would be best for my paintwork 86f cool grey, full respray at the start of the year.

i polish with autogleam srp, then high gloss protection, with nattys blue wax on top.

would using any of these take the wax off or cause ant damage at all, and whats the best and best value for £

Last touch
Nxt Generation Speed Detailer
the spray that comes with the clay bar

thanks
ian

Any of the above would be fine for you.

Megs do several different quick detailers.

Value for money wise you would be best getting a gallon of last touch and diluting it yourself in a spare bottle. Make sure your car doesn't have too much crap on it and your paint work will be fine.

I'm looking at some concentrated stuff at the moment, I use mine more as a drying agent.... when I dry the car I spray it on each panel as I dry this helps reduce swirl marks from the drying towel plus any of the limescale droplets that form if it dries before I get to it.
I don't use it to clean a dusty car if I go to a show, I don't have full confidence on that usage.

looks like the last touch is going to be best for me.

where is the cheapest place to buy it?

polish blissis the cheapest, but when you add delivery on top it makes it expensive

anywhere near cambridge that i can pick some up?

unless polishbliss can do a deal on delivery? (would like the spray bottle and spray lid as well)

Our delivery prices are set at cost price; you have to bear in mind a gallon of Last Touch is heavy, and heavy means expensive in terms of shipping rates. A lot of people seem to stock up with us periodically in order to save on the shipping costs, rather than placing regular small orders. A further benefit of doing this is that you can take advantage of our standard discount policy; spend over £100 in one go, and 5% is taken off the bill.
