    Best Wax?

    Ease of use and looks are my main requirements for a wax which Swissvax nails completely so I mostly use Mirage, Shield and Best of Show. I am looking forward to the revised Divine… should be awesome!

    Dodo Juice - Diamond White

    It's not durable enough for me for Winter. I'd look at something like Zaino Z2, which will look better on white too.

    novice wet sanding....

    Try using 1500 via machine on an E92 M3, it will just laugh at it as the paint is so hard. The starting point depends on the hardness of the clearcoat. Maybe 1500 works for what you use but when sanding OEM paint, like when machining to remove swirl marks, the combination used will be...

    novice wet sanding....

    The problem is with wet sanding is finding an environment clean enough to work in (not outside!) and also technique to avoid inflicting scorelines into the paint. I've seen a few wet sands up close and on photos they look great, but up close the scorelines are frankly shocking!! Test panels...

    Auto Finesse Clay is probably one of the nicest and easiest to use. Their new Glide lube is nice too.

    Swissvax onyx

    Pre wax cleansers...Polish?

    I'd look at the new Super Natural Micro Prime if you're working by hand, it's a bit more effective than Lime Prime in this role. Both are (light) polishes
