Just got a silver Corsa C & the paint's in pretty good condition for it's year (53 plate) but could do with a polish to really bring it out, what's the best one to use on a silver paint?
A generic auto glym polish or and brand's you guys can recommend?

I use autoglym super resin polish personally, my brother uses it on his silver b and the paint always looks lovely.

Just spotted this, i've used the black hole & does a really good job, wonder if would be worth it with some decent wax to seal it

Mine came up pretty well with Autoglym SRP followed by dodo juice wax.

Acrylic sealants are usually better for light coloured cars rather than traditional waxes.
Autoglym SRP is an excellent value for money polish but it's always a good idea to use a sealer/wax on top.

So would you all recommend Autogly SRP over the poorboys?

Autoglym Super Resin, then Meguirs Carnuba would be my choice.
