Werkstatt Acrylic looks stunning on wr blue. Ask Pinseeker. He had that on his. Different look to wax, a lot harder and colder than a wax but stunning.

I like the megs quick clays. But I now have access to others

Only if you have some megs clay, it's worth doing the windscreen before the new wipers for minimising friction
