Hiya everyone,



i drive a Nissan Skyline GTR V-Spec in QM1 (white) and wanting peoples advice on the best wax`s for my car......



i currently use a variety but i am wanting that something a tad better....



i currently use the mainstreem stuff such as:



Meguires Gold Class

Meguires NXT

Turtle Wax (in a tin not the liquid)

Mothers Quick Detailer

Autoglym resin polish

Meguires Metal Polish

Meguires scratch remover

Meguires 3 stage process

Etc Etc......



Recently i had the pleasure of applying a coat of Zymol "Ital" to my car and it was a dream to apply & remove! it smelt fantastic too.



i know this retails for around £350 - £500 per pot and i do not want to be paying this for a pot of wax / sealant.......



i know Zymol and Swissvax do cheaper wax`s but are they as good????



what would you suggest as a very good wax for a lower price but with similar performance, taking into account my car is white and it is difficult to achieve the shine and finish of darker paint types....



best paint preperation?

best to use on paint work?

best to use on tyres?

best to use on wheels? (powder coated)

best metal polish? (exhaust & air diversion plate)

best to use on glass?

best to use under the bonnet? (powder coated engine)



anything else you guys could suggest?



this is my car:
