I have got a mica blue bug and got told that dodo juice purple haze was really good as brought out the depth as well? But a few people have been saying autoglym hd wax is good, so what do you think?

Think the dodo juice range are more for the summer months with less durability, fine if you don't mind replenishing wax every few weeks and they will give a better depth to the shine.
I found with the colli 476s after washing a quick spray over with a quick detailer has it looking like it's just been waxed again.
Can't comment for AG HD wax as never used it, mainly due to the price

So you need 2 layers of supernatural but only 1 layer of HD....
Nearly a year since mine and yes ive not added another coat of HD to the car, still not too bad but needs doing again before winter

You should use a sealant if you want the best protection for the winter, I personly use dodo juice hybrid it's half sealant and half wax so best of both worlds. Will give you at least 3-4 months protection and the pot will last years!!! So easy to use just make sure you put it on thin or it's hard to remove, the finish is truly amazing!

To be honest I think the hybrid is in a different class!
I don't think there is much difference between the hard and soft wax other than it's easier to achieve thinner coats with hard wax.
They do a pro hard wax but I'd still go for the hybrid supernatural, then top it off if I have the time with the standard supernatural wax.
