Spent all of sunday morning applying the Sappir Wax from Swissol, easy to apply, the pre-treatment was the hardest part but removed all the tar, flysquash and other gunk.
Once applied, looks like glass coating. :D
I thought this was expensive but when you consider how much you use, this will last for years.
I have been converted........ :worship:

I still swear by Meguiars products, the GOLD products are great, reasonable prices too.

Neg, cool LCR. :thumbup:
Yep, you just pay more for more wax content, think saphir is 40%. Personally i wouldn't go for any more expensive than the Saphir, broke the bank in that. :(
Looking grubby yesterday as i work on sites and mud always ends up on the sides and lowers.
Quick jet wash, lance only at tesco for £2 and came up a dream,, no scrubbing either :clap:
And no i'm not on comission from Tony, but the swissol stuff is good comparing it to Autoglym etc.

Saphir on Black for me.
There is one with Teflon or PTFE content IIRC, think Syphon uses that one, PM him if yer interested??

Shield is the PTFE one.
I was going to get that but then I bought the Concorso instead.......
Great pic :thumbup: . You just can't beat Swissol can you [B)]

Saphir seams to work well but if you really want to go for that ultimate shine you need concorso its very very gud gear the finish you can achieve is amazing. :thumbup:
