Best Polish??
I am after a really good polish for my Sti (Blue).
The bonnet looks like Mr T buffed it up with his chains

Hi
I had the same problem when using autoglym products - even though I've used them for years on other cars.
I bought swissol - clay bar, cleaner fluid, wax. Its 5 - 6 hours work but the result is excellent (but its not cheap).

Meguirs Tech Wax is exceptionally good, gives a deep lustre and is easy to apply and buff - get one of their polishing pads aswell. These allow you to apply the polish more evenly thus preventing some of the streaks you would get using a couple of fingers and cloth.

6 hours to polish a car!!!! 
I get bored after 20 mins - which is probably why I don't have a good finish Would anyone like to come over and demonstrate the correct technique for polishing? I'm sure after watching you do the whole car I will be able to do it myself the next time
