Ha, just realised Mick, you live in Uxbridge (near Slough) and work in Basingstoke.

I live near Basingstoke and work in Slough!

To be honest I think you got the better deal, my journey is horrible in the mornings!

I use the same combination of products on my last S and now my new one. P21S is good, but doesn't last very long IMO. I have changed to using Zymol Japon wax as the 3rd stage and the shine is still going very strong after 4 weeks, through all this rain and crap.

Going to apply a new layer this week.

Read the official thread for loads of info re. polishes, waxes and links to suppliers.

Just so you all know I'm going for Vanilla Moose, Followed by Poorboys EX-P, followed by P21S Wax.
Should be a good starting point that combination but I agree with Moff, the P21 is not an endurance wax more show and shine, it will last a few weeks though and will protect. In terms of your colour, thats fine, it is certainly better than silver for effect but will not be as wow as the darker colours. Anyway enjoy and learn

Just spoken with Alex and he mentioned he does accept PayPal.

Or doing a Rahula as it is known in the trade.

I used the "rahula" on my last 2 S's, to try and overcome the short life of the P21S I swapped it for NXT Tech wax.
No issues with it taking the VM or EXP off and it lasts for 6-8 weeks

Nice shine and not too much work
