Wax.

Post by john56 » Wed Feb 08, 2012 5:09 pm

Daughter wants to buy me something for the Z4, its my birthday soon and i thought some wax would be useful, i believe certain waxes suit certain colours, mine is Montego Blue, so what do you think? Dodo Juice, Megs, Collinite? etc, appreciate your ideas.

Blue Velvet or Purple Haze would probably suite best :)

I've been using Meguiar's on my montego blue z4 for years. Always a nice shine. :)

I bought a tub of Dodo Purple Haze. An excellent easy to use wax that is incredibly durable. Will never go back to Halfords stocked waxes.

Hmmmm detailing ----- as equally a slippery slope as Z4 modding :shock:

Another vote for Dodo Juice Purple Haze. Easy to use and produces great results.

R222 P21S 100% Carnuba wax. Easy to apply & gives an absolutely fantastic finish. It's about £40 on cleanyourcar.com, saying that I think the dodo juice is on offer for £24, but would still recommend the R222.
