Should I use wax on my Chevrolet Orlando's paintwork?
My 18-month-old Chevrolet Orlando has Velvet red metallic paintwork. After shampooing and drying it looks superb. Should I be waxing it? If so, what would you recommend and how often please

I use Autoglym paint surface cleaner followed by Autoglym High Def Wax. Expensive, but worth it. Lasts about six months and a £40 tub lasts 2 - 3 years.

I have just purchased a Subaru XV. I was offered body protection at a ridiculous cost. Can you recommend a polish to carry out the protection myself?
What is your view on the high priced, 'special' car polishes currently available? Are they worth the extra money and is there one you particularly recommend, please?
I use Autoglym Super Resin Polish and then Extra Gloss Protection after that. Should I then use Autoglym High Def wax to seal it, or is High Def meant to be an alternative to one or both of the others?
