Ah the Fusso fanboys!

I'm loving Britemax Vantage at the moment, lovely to use, especially when coupled with Britemax Blackmax used as a filling glaze.

I also had some great results with the Glare System too, excellent filling abilities and a semi permanent (oxymoron) finish.

Top it off after each wash with some Sonax BSD mixed with your QD of choice (Power Maxed QD or Chemical Guys V7 are my choice) and you'll have beading to die for.

Lots to look at cheers all!

I like the idea of a small pot to try first like with the dodo juice.

I usually start with some snow foam, can't remember the brand. Then I've been favouring Zymol auto wash with a microfibres mitt, using the two bucket method. Usually followed by some clay bar action and then the Zymol cleaner wax. I've always been a fan of Wonder Wheels. Followed by a coat of wax on the wheels. Again can't remember brand but it smells like bubblegum. Also use a Smartwax product to dress the tyres and Autosol for any metal polishing.

I'd love to try one of the Zymol waxes but they're so expensive! I like the fact that there products are made with just natural ingredients and don't give me a headache if I spend the day cleaning one of my cars.

Except for Fusso

Tbh I had my car detailed last year and whatever the guy used on it had amazing beading that lasted for ages.
All I remembered was that the tub had japanese writing on it. After some researching I figured out it was Fusso.
So it's not from other peoples opinions or reccomendations.

So far its the best wax I've used.

The clay bar and cleaner wax are designed to strip protection from the paint - if you're using these every time you wash, then you're leaving your paint with no protection between washes! (Unless I've read it wrong!)

I'm not doing this every time I wash there aren't enough hours in the day. Usually 3 or 4 times a year. As we are getting into spring and I've just purchased a new daily driver it's time to spend a day on each car to keep them locking good. Hence the need for some new wax to protect them when I've finished.

I wouldn't clay more than once than year and only if followed up by a light machine polish.

Maintenance washes followed by QD for the rest of the year with the occasional wax/sealant top up.
