Default R222 Carnauba Wax

Hi,

Anyone else tried this?

It's the best wax I have ever bought. I've had my pot about 3 years now, and only 2 thirds gone.

I've no idea how many times I have waxed my cars with this. Even better after a Bilt Hamber claybar.

£50 may sound a lot to some people, but if you bought £50 worth of Auto Glym for example, you'd have used all that up 18 months ago.

It goes on so sparingly, very much worth a try.

Used it may times. And in many cases better than some waxes twice the price.

Found you get even better results and the protection last even longer if the paint is cleaned/glazed after the claying. E.g. Dodo Juice Lime prime.

Well my preference is Collinite 476 personally. R222 is good but the durability just doesn't compete with the competition its gloss is awesome though! Here's a vid I made after working on a Lexus Sc430..Was still like this after 4 months of continuous use.

Autoglym HD wax here, 2 coats on the Citroen when I got her a few months back, may need another 2 coats in about 8-9 months but i'll probably do it more like October time, just in time for winter, then do the scoob at the same time, hardly used any from doing 2 coats, should last ages
R222 looks good though, no need for it just at the moment with the above wax on

Tony
