Im not really big into the whole washing, waxing, polishing routine

Can anyone recommend a simply wash and wax all in one product. I currently use Turtlewax Zip Wax Concentrate and just wondering if there’s anything better.

Not to fussed about the cost providing its not silly money

I know u die hard car washers will be :grumpy: but just don’t have the patience

Cheers :)

Chemical Guys - Bodywash and Wax is worth a try from: http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/washing-a ... d_144.html

You can get it by the gallon too but it appears to be out of stock.

UK importer of CG gear is here: http://www.carwashnwax.com/

Dodo Juice do a gloss enhancing shampoo called Sour Power, that has a slight carnauba content. If you wanted a little bit more protection you could look at applying a spray-on wax/sealant after you've washed the car. Products like Valet Pro Citrus Bling, Autoperfection Spray Sealant (coming very soon) or Dodo Juice Red Mist are good products and are quick and easy to use.

If you did have a little more time to spend on the car, to get the best results we would recommend the three stage process as mentioned by Wigit... Wash, Pre-wax and Wax. By far the easiest to use products we've come across are Lusso, and all of them achieve excellent results.

Hope this helps

Taryn and Jim :)

Glad you're getting on with all the products we recommended Wigit!

From our first conversations, we never thought we'd make a car-cleaning enthusiast out of you... oh how wrong we were!!! :D
