Yeah. Also the tub looks like I haven't used it yet. It should last for years.

I've never been a fan of the HD Wax - it seemed like a pig to work with and the finish wasn't that impressive after a few washes.

I have to say I am an Auto Glym fan and have used it for years. I have just bought some Collinite 476 and what can I say it is fantastic, the finish is superb and not that hard to remove. It is suposed to last for at least a year and all the reviews rate it highly. I'm a very happy man with a very shiny Rover

I always used AG resin polish & gloss finish it's great but Collinite 476 has the edge and lasts longer

Perhaps a daft question but what is the best method of applying Autoglym Extra Gloss?

its very runny so wipe on with a foam applicator pad ideally. leave for about an hour to cure, buff off and jobs a good un. I'm with paul on the HD wax. not impressed at all. fk1000 is still my fave at the mo.
