I can't vouch for Yellow but I'll let you practice on my Blue if you like. It could do with a good claying.

They don't do orange Skodas John

So the future has to be the next available brightest colour I'm afraid, which is yellow.

Buy an orange Fabia II

Klasse AIO and Colli 476 are a good starting point for most cars as they last a long time.

The banana armour looks nice, but I think I'll go for colli 915 for mine next time as it costs less, looks pretty damn good and lasts longer

Well I finally settled for the Colli 915.

I have used paste waxes before but this is solid but will melt to the touch.

Does anyone have any application tips and is there an ideal temperature for application?

I quickly tried the beer fridge door in the garage and it has come up a treat but unfortunately it's white not yellow.

Oh well hopefully will have a chance this weekend.
