Since you all seem to like Chemical Guys range so much I thought I would do a must have shopping list for you all. These are products that I have used and found to be best, and I will give them personnel rating out of 10, and 10 being the best. The ways I will do my scoring is on the following factors (below), and please feel free to add your CG product review to this thread.

Clay
http://www.chemicalguysuk.com/Clay_Bar_ ... Click=2781
Clay pulls out all the things you can not see, but you can defiantly feel, like industrial fallout, rail dust, and brake dust. Though they are not visible, they feel rough or gritty and may cause patches of paint to appear dull, even after waxing. As these contaminants oxidize, they create rust spots within the paint. Once this happens, the oxidation is considerably harder to remove and will most likely take a good bit of paint with it.

Glaze
http://www.chemicalguysuk.com/product_p ... Click=2781
I applied too much Pro Polish+ (microfiber pretty much turned grey when I was wiping product off)
I took as much excess off as possible but still had a fair bit of residue so decided to try applying Ez Cre'me Glaze II on top
WOW! Brings out a darker shine. It was so easy to apply and remove, Think this will be my first and last Glaze.

Wax

Having bought this wax, I can't recommend it enough. Having used and love XXX Hardcore Wax, I was blown away with 50/50 Connoisseurs Wax, but with total easy of application and removal, doing the whole car and then a light wipe to remove even in direct sun

I use this reguaarly on customers cars even if they havent chose a wax option purely because it lasts so long 4+months and takes 15 mins to do a car. to top it off u can get 30 application from one bottle and thats with big saloon type vehicles
