Expert Notes

Angelwax QED is a quick exterior detailer, offered here in 500ml and 5L, for adding gloss, slickness and a layer of protection between washes. It removes light dust, fingerprints, water spots and fresh contamination, and leaves a wet look, high-gloss finish that buffs off streak-free. We use it straight after drying a freshly washed car, as a top-up over existing wax or sealant, and for touch-ups at car shows. It works on paintwork, glass, chrome and exterior trim, which makes it a handy all-round finishing spray. Pair it with plush microfibre towels, and use the 5L to refill a labelled trigger bottle if you detail regularly.

Perfect For / Suitable Surfaces

  • Paintwork
  • Glass
  • Chrome
  • Exterior trim
  • Waxed paintwork
  • Sealed paintwork
  • Car show touch-ups

Caution: Use only on a cool, clean surface: spraying onto hot panels or wiping over grit and heavy dirt can leave marks or cause fine scratches.

The Brand

Angelwax

Angelwax is a Scottish car care brand based in Paisley, where it designs, formulates and manufactures all of its products at its own headquarters. The team behind it describes itself as innovators, chemists and perfectionists with more than 25 years in the chemical industry. Its first wax, Formulation #1, launched in 2009, and the range now runs from hand-poured waxes, wash and decontamination products to compounds, interior care and ceramic coatings, which Angelwax only lets accredited installers apply professionally. Its strapline is Heaven Scent, Wicked Finish, and scent runs through the range, from the chocolate fragrance of Dark Angel to Bilberry.

At The Drivers HQ we stock Angelwax online with UK delivery and in our Ilkeston shop. Popular choices include Dark Angel, Formulation #1 and Bilberry Wheel Cleaner.

Angelwax waxes, polishes and protection

Waxes. Formulation #1 is a hand-poured carnauba wax of natural waxes and oils that needs only a thin coat, rated by Angelwax at up to six months. Dark Angel is made for black and dark paint: it enriches dark tones, helps hide light swirls and wash marks, and carries a chocolate scent. The Fifth Element is a high endurance show wax of four natural waxes and passion fruit oil, and Luminosity Matte Wax protects matte, satin and wrapped finishes without adding gloss, kept clean between washes with Luminosity QED.

Polishing. Resurrection is the heavy cut compound, rated to remove sanding marks up to 1,500 grade, Regenerate is the medium cut swirl remover, and Redemption is the ultra fine finishing polish that takes out holograms and P3000 sanding marks. By hand, Perfect Polish is a pre-wax cleanser with ultra fine abrasives, and Stripped-Ease removes old wax, sealant and polishing oils before fresh protection.

Glass and quick protection. H2GO is a glass rain repellent that Angelwax says makes rain bead off from as low as 20mph, applied after cleaning with Vision, a fast flashing glass cleaner that is safe on tinted windows. QED is the quick detailer for gloss between washes, and Alchemy is a metal polish for exhaust tips, chrome, aluminium and stainless steel.

Angelwax wash, wheels and interior care

Wash and decontamination. Cleanliness is a water based, solvent free citrus pre-wash made in Angelwax's UK laboratory, safe on waxes, sealants and ceramic coatings. FastFoam is a thick snow foam for the lance, and Superior Automotive Shampoo is a concentrated, pH neutral shampoo that leaves protection in place. Blue Rinse is a wax infused rinse aid for the clean, wet car, diluted up to 5:1, that makes water sheet off for faster drying. Revenge softens insect remains, Nemesis dissolves tar, glue and sap, and the Cleanse clay bar lifts bonded fallout, used with Uber-Lube.

Wheels. Bilberry is a non-acidic wheel cleaner, ready to use or as a concentrate, safe on painted, lacquered and powder coated wheels. Bilberry Wheel Wax then adds a barrier that slows brake dust build-up, and the same fruity scent comes as the Bilberry air freshener.

Interior and soft tops. AnGel is a water based, silicone free dressing with UV protection that leaves interior plastics matte and non greasy. Absolution cleans seats, carpets and mats, and Heaven for Leather is a pH neutral leather cleaner that keeps the factory matte finish. For convertibles, Excelsior cleans canvas, mohair, cloth and vinyl roofs, and Shield leaves an invisible barrier that repels water and stains on roofs and fabrics. Clarity is a super concentrated screenwash that can be used neat as a de-icer.

Kit. The Brush-Up set of five bristle brushes reaches badges, vents and wheel nuts, and the padded Detailing Bag has a rigid base for carrying waxes and bottles.
