Default Autoglym Aqua Wax
Have just used this out of necessity on the in-laws car in this heat. Not sure I would use it on the scoob but on the daily's then yes.
It's brilliant at drying the car in this heat leaving no water marks and a reasonable shine to the paintwork, even more so as the car would benefit from some clay bar and a decent wax.
Spray on whilst car is wet and towel dry off. Finishing with a nice buffing cloth.IMG_20190725_144656863_HDR.jpgIMG_20190725_142359488_HDR.jpgIMG_20190725_123226735_HDR.jpgIMG_20190725_123210323_HDR.jpg

Hi Steve

Yeah very similar to Gyeon Wet Coat and Autofinesse Aquacoat...

They are great products - easy to use and work great.

Obviously limited in their protection of paint compared to wax / sealant / ceramics but do a great job of keeping a daily looking nice and adding some beading...

Obviously best use is on a clayed, polished and waxed car and being used as a top up maintenance wash tool..

Oh well if it's that dirty sandy rain we had the other day then it might be an early start tomorrow before I take their car back

What impressed me the most Ryan was how well it worked as a drying aid. I hate washing any car in the sun/ heat and always try to work on a panel a time if I have to. After a 2 bucket wash sprayed this on as per instructions and was impressed how well it helped dry the panel free of water spots

Yeah as it’s hydrophobic it really helps cut down drying time Steve
