Unfortunately its coming towards the time of year where it does nothing but rain, hail and cover everything you hold dear in road grit.

Does anyone have any recommendations for what i can be using on my paint to give me the best protection for the longest period of time?

Currently im using Auto Glyms ultra gloss protection which is mint but i dont think its gonna be up to the beating its likely to take soon!

Chemical Guys Jet Seal 109 and Collinite 476S Wax are both good.

Colinite everytime.

Never tried it but they do do overwinter solution for caravans that you wash on and wash off months later. God knows what it looks like mind.

AutoGlym are usually very good. Haven't been in the business professionally myself since 1997 but they still seem to rank top in many tests..

Think you should only use AG Ultra Gloss after applying their Resin polish first? Resin stuff is excellant IMO
