Baz will be his element with this one!

I think some of the Meguiars ones give a decent result with little effort if you're lazy.

If you don't mind putting a bit of work in, then Collinite 476 is meant to be pretty good.

Hmm meguars stuff is a good starting point, no point splashing out on the more pricey wax/polish straight away. Im going through some AutoGlym bits at the moment and they are rather good.
