I wouldn't use autoglym personally. Best bang for buck I've found is the Poorboys range.

It's a bit like asking what oil to use. A bit of a mine field.
I've given many a go. Auto glym was my favourite but that was 10 years ago and products have changed a lot in recent years. At the moment my cupboard contains : Poor boys for general waxing and sealing Chemical guy's for general waxing and sealing but also product for tyres, trim and rubber hoses Prima sealing wax Mezerna for dual action cutting polishing Meguiars detailer and clay bars Plus a few other bits......you know the kinda stuff you get given by family for Christmas and yes that includes auto glym. Now only used for tarspot removal and cleaning the conservatory. My advice would be to check out www.cleanyourcar.co.uk and read some of the product reviews. |

Ive never got on with Autoglym as I find it doesn't really bring the shine up like meguiars or Chem guys products do - but totally agree with above comments - its all about personal preference...

I've had good success with AutoGlym, but my eyes have definitely been opened to a brave new world.
Running down supplies to replace with some of the stuff the guys have referred to above. www.cleanyourcar.com is a great site and I've recently been perusing www.i4detailing.co.UK which seems good. |

Super Resin Polish?
Lets not be forgetting that is was formally known as Silicone Resin Polish lets also not be forgetting that silicone is not great for water based paint finishes!!! If you use something like Menzerna (as its been mentioned) on a car thats had a silicone polish applied, you can end up with smears, streaks etc especially when using a machine....! as the silcone is designed to withstand removal, in the worst cases, harsh clay bar or 4000 wet sand is necessary..even then some silicone will remain!! To the general public AG products are OK, due to the finish that they provide for relativly easy effort..... silicone and filler heavy products, with a small amount of sealent included.... they also have too much cut (although stated as not alot) to be using on a regular basis IMO Far better off purchasing individual products to do the job they are each designed for you can then renew the finish layers to keep on top of things without the need to keep cutting back all that being said, if you get the finish your happy with using a certain product, then can't be a bad thing |

I use a few Dave depends on whats necessary to achieve a finish.....
chemical guys V range is worth a look and you can get (may need to import now) an all in one from them that'll do a better job than AG as a similar product. Scholl Concepts A15 also worth a look |
