I'm a big fan of Meguiar's NXT 2.0. For its balance of shine, durability and ease of use. If properly applied, on a clean (clay barred) surface, it lasts for longer than anything I've used in the past.

I will second that! I am amazed at the stuff and how it lasts. My car is a daily driver and after 5 months I stripped it and clayed and waxed - but it hardly needed it!

I use Autoglym polish, i'm a great fan of the shine it gives but the dust is annoying if you have a black car.

Ok! now I am probably the last preson to fall for the too good to be true TV ad about a car cleaning product BUT!! I bought a bottle of CarPlan Demon Shine from Halfords, you know the one? pour on deap shine, just pour it on and dry off to leave a brilliant deap shine............. yeah! right.....

you know what.............. IT BLOODY WORKS Just used it and the result is exactly what it says on the tin very pleased and so easy, ok it probably wont last too long, but as it is so easy to apply it don't really matter.
