I have used Tempo automotive wax paste made in the Czech Republic several times and have had excellent results. Before polishing, you need to sand with fine automotive abrasive paper size 1000, then wash, dry and polish with Tempo wax paste. The protective wax layer will keep the shine and great look for a long time
