    Diamondbrite will wear off before you know it. Absolute rubbish & is often miss sold and badly applied.

    You know dealers pay around £40 for it dont you?

    The equivilant products such as offerings from gtechniq are around £60-£100 to buy and last up to 7 years. I laughed in the salesmans face when he tried to offload it onto me.

    Are you looking for a glossy wax or Durable one? If you're after a balance I'd suggest Wax Planet Revolution X

    Or, if you're one of the people who like to use colour coded waxes (doesn't make a difference, it's clearcoat) then Red October.

    If you want pure gloss, Yorkshire Detailing REVERSAL

    If you Want durability with good gloss, ODK Waxes Sterling or Concourse.

    All of the above are available from my website. they can all be applied by hand or machine
