awww crap.
I guess I'm gonna have to give this stuff a try. I presume the application method is the same as polish?
Who's good online for ordering the stuff?

Try them they are the UK agents.
Now, well as for application, its not the same as ordinary polish. Its several steps, first is to wash you car and dry it, then you apply HD cleanse, which is a brown coloured thick liquid, you do small areas at a time, certainly no bigger than 1/3 to 1/2 of a bonnet at a time, its worth getting their applicator for this, this stuff removes all the crap and old polish on the paint, polish it off after about a minute. Dont do this and not apply the glaze as your paint has no protection. Next is the glaze (wax) application. For the better glazes the applicator is your hand. Thats right your hand, using a small amount of glaze about the size of a bean you slowly rub your hands together to melt the glaze, then apply it to the paint surface. You dont need much and it goes a long way, leave this on for a about thirty seconds to a minute, dont let it dry. Then with one of their special microfibre cloths (you will need one of these) you apply pressure and just wipe it off. The shine thats left is just amazing, let the wax set for a couple of hours and give it a buff up with a terry type of polishing cloth, once again the Zymol polishing cloths are ace. Thats it. Once the car is done all over there's no need to do the HD cleanse again and you can add extra glaze to bits of the car as you wish.
One last important point is now your car has the best wax protection on it dont wash it off next time you clean your car. Ordinary car shampoos will remove a significant proportion of ANY wax on there. Use a shampoo (and use it sparingly) that will not remove your wax. Guess what? Zymol (or Swissol) do shampoos that will leave your wax on. The Zymol is called CEAR, its not cheap but you only need a thimble full in each bucket of warm water.
So there you are, I can do a complete car in well less than a day.
