There’s no need to spend hours buffing in the sun to keep your car shining this summer if you use a spray wax. The best can also take off the dust and light road grime often found during the drier months, so there’s no need to wash the car before waxing. Plus, they’re easier to apply than a conventional paste or liquid wax, usually requiring little more than spraying and buffing to a shine.
There’s a range of products on the market, from liquid waxes – which claim to be long lasting – to detailer sprays that promise to clean and shine and not much else. We put eight to the test to find the one that’ll make your car sparkle this summer.
How we tested them
Unlike in our usual wax tests, durability isn’t the key factor here, although we did check our test bonnet a week or so after we’d applied our spray waxes to find out which were still working.
More importantly, we wanted the sprays to take off light grime and dust, so we didn’t have to wash the car first. Ease of use was assessed, looking for effective cleaning with minimal wiping. Finally, we took into account cost from online sources as we went to press.
Verdict
Angelwax QED retains its crown, mixing top cleaning and durability. Not far behind, and beading water as well, was Sonax’s Brilliant Shine Detailer. Turtle Wax Perfect Finish Detailer completes the top three.
