I won it
Won the Waxathon.
It is very good! Not sure if I prefer its correction ability over AG SRP, but it is fantastic and beads well on its own also.

Some people seem to rate it and others don't like it at all. I haven't used it myself, but all I know is who it's really made by.

Who it's really made buy?? I know for a fact that auto finesse products are a load of shit. There's been quite a lot of hoo har about a lot of there products. One in particular about 2 weeks ago that causes a massive fuss

I've found them ok in general. And there are some pretty good products as well in the ranges.
Wouldn't hop on the bandwagon completely but think your way off the mark.

Yeah i just see it on the auto finesse facebook page in a pic of a golf bonnet that they done a half and half and was amazed one product did such a good job. Yeah i have blackhole which is easy to use and gives great results. But this tripple is a polish glaze and wax in one so thought it may be worth a shot. Lol

It's made by a cheap mass-producer of chemicals like this. The 50/50 on that Golf bonnet is impressive, but that's down to the cleaners and abrasives in it. You could manage the same with Autoglym Super Resin Polish which is also an all in one, or a pre-wax cleaner like Dodo Juice Lime Prime. It should actually be a bit easier with the pre-wax cleaner as opposed to the AIO because it's got stronger cleaners and abrasives due to not having to cram a sealant in there as well.
Yeah Flaffy I saw that Megs/AF thread before it was taken down About time this all came out properly tbh.

Haha wasn't up for long was it. And to be honest AF has never had the best reputation with "using other people's" products hahahaha

So you lot dont recommend by the sounds of it? I will try it once and see how it goes. Lol Got a feeling it wont live up to its expectations though. So who really makes the products then? I take it they just put it in a fancy bottle and sell it for more money?

They use a few mass production chemists. As for the second part, that's pretty much it, yeah
I haven't yet tested it myself (awaiting a sample) but I'm told on good authority that their Desire wax is a rebranded version of another company's wax which they sell for £70 less.

Do you have something to back that up? I'm pretty sure that Wax Tec make their own stuff.
