Hey, my evo is my first White car and I'm just wondering if there are specific cleaning products/waxes/polishes etc that anyone has tried and tested and find effective to make sure White specifically stays nice and White? Thanks in advance :).

I thought about a garage lol but I'd really like to drive it, I used to used dodo juice on my other cars which I found good for dark colours but I'm not sure what effect it will have on White lol, I'll give autoglym a go :), thanks steve x

You can buy dodo wax for white cars. Also take a look at polished bliss website for mote info on different available products. Me personaly use swisswax best of show but it's 170quid a pot. The blackfire fire over ice kit is a good one but it costs around about 80 quid but it is a full enhancement kit also available from p.b.:)

I never got on with my dodo juice products on my grey VII after going round the car several times after using the right soap then on and off with a drying agent then round again with the red mist wax I was devastated when the sun caught it and showed up it was streaky as UCk.

Went back to the old wash and wax an a bottle of colour magic and cheap car polisher from halfords.

I just use wash and wax to get my mak clean then just normal auto glym super resin to make it look pretty.

Might get myself a clay bar though cos White shows up tar spots etc which the grey VII didn't

I'll definitely have a look into that, I'm not worried about cost of it aslong as it can be used more than once lol, if it does the trick I would rather pay a bit extra for the best results As I don't like my cars to be dirty especially near show season :) thanks

White sounds like such a hard colour to maintain bit If things are tried and tests by you I will take the advice and try them all hehe one of them will have to be better than the other :)

Nick, you ever been on cleanyourcar.com ? Got myself a awesome massive drying towel. It absorbs so much water that I can dry my car only just about wring a couple drops of water out of it.

That together with my new EZ detail wheel brush is great :)

theres 2 recomendations for auto glym and both white car owners id say your on to a winner here autoglym will set u back around £10.00 a bottle or u could buy the complete kit like i have for 60.00 everything in there u could possibly need

when i use complete kit my car takes 5hours to clean,thats windows wheels taken off and polished tyre shine polish back to black all engine bits and bobs interior seats dash etc and its all autoglym x

White shows up more of what you missed but then black looks like a mirror when done right

I think I will try autoglym first, and a plus side is you can buy it almost everywhere I see it wherever I go, but then looking at polished bliss I just want to buy everything and for the price it must be good, ahhhh car cleaning product dilemma! :-( x

Have a look on here too, I got one of the large drying towels it's awesome. Dried the whole car in just a couple minutes and could only wring out a couple drops of water from it at the end. It's amazing how much water it holds :)
