Purple haze. Softer wax - easier to use and looks better. however the harder wax is better for longer protection.
Well worth the money.. they last for ages.

Blue velvet for me. I use it on a lot of my clients darker cars (and on my own C).
Here's a Civic I did the other day, corrected, then topped with PB Black Hole, followed by Dodo Blue Velvet:
I would get it fro, Elite Car Care - great guys there Also, get it in the plastic jar, as this is version 2 with improved recipe to last longer iirc

Orange Crush & Supernatural are both excellent
I'm going to get myself some purple haze and hard candy before long a soft colour charged wax for dark cars and a hard wax for extra protection, also to stop me using the supernatural all the time.
I would also say buy some DoDo Juice Lime Prime and use that before waxing, if you think the wax goes on easy without, you should try lime prime before hand, it takes no effort what so ever!
Orange Crush:
Lime Prime:
Lime Prime & Supernatural
Quick Wash, then Supernatural'd
Lime Prime, then Supernatural'd again

You can buy the small application foam pads. quite cheap. but to be fair- tips of fingers are the best method i feel.

I use foam pads. They have some Terry applicator pads for £1 each which seem good value. Are they better than the foam pads for application?
Looking at that Lime Prime has just had me pricing up some bits on Elite now - Why is it quiet days at work end up costing me money?!....
