    A couple of times a week for me, its not good for the company image if my car is dirty. (I own a car care products company)

    Cheers

    Well, in my neck of the woods, It's not so easy to wash the car as religiously as I'd like to, since a Water-Restriction-Patrol-Officer's snooping up and down my street ever more frequently lately. ( I think some old lady down the Road's ratted on me :?

    Anyway, certainly twice a month. Maybe more often if I can manage it.

    And I frankly don't give a flying toss what people think.

    I might even grab some of that Macguire's (sic?) Gold Class Wax and try it out one day.

    Anyone used this stuff? Any good?

    Wax - I use 2 waxs depending on the time of year. I use Meguairs Gold Class for summer (as i find it less durable to rain resistance) and Meguairs Hi-Tech Carnauba Yellow Wax for both all seasons. Both give great reflective and clean qualities but I tend to find the Gold Class is some what minorly more reflective, but it is a dual action (Polish and Wax in one product) which saves time if you dont want to do a seperate polish but I would reccomend doing a seperate polish. I am also looking at moving onto a more show car type wax like Klasse.
    Thats from a previous post of mine.

    Gold Class wax takes a bit of buffing to remove, that is probably my only gripe with the product.

    Thanks for that...

    Going by your experience, I might just stick with the Polyglaze for the moment, until I get myself an orbital buffer perhaps.

    Auto glym super resin polish is just as good, its pretty easy to apply and remove. Absolutly stunning finish and to keep it that way i use Meguires quick wax and quick detailer.
