Fusso Coat. Fusso Coat 12 Months, in Dark and Light, is made with fluorine resins and waxes and rated by Soft99 for up to 12 months of water repellent protection. Wash and dry the car, apply it thinly, and once it has dried, after 5 to 20 minutes depending on the temperature, wipe it off with a soft dry towel. Fusso Coat Speed & Barrier is the fluoropolymer spray for keeping it topped up, rated at up to 180 days.

Gloss waxes. The Kiwami blends carnauba with synthetic polymers for up to three months of deep gloss, in Black/Dark and Silver/Light. The King of Gloss is a mineral wax and synthetic resin blend for black and dark paint, and Water Block Wax is a strongly water repellent polymer sealant in Dark and Light.

Soft99 Glaco glass care and detailing tools

Glaco. Soft99 launched its Glaco glass water repellents in 1991. The roll-on coatings leave the screen repelling rain so it is blown off by the airflow as you drive: Ultra Glaco Roll On in 70ml, Glaco Roll On in 120ml and the 300ml Glaco Roll On MAX, made to mark 30 years of Glaco. Glaco Mirror Coat Zero is a 40ml spray for side mirrors that leaves a layer of fine silica crystals. Prepare the glass first with the Glaco Glass Compound Roll On, which uses two abrasives to remove stains, traffic film and old Glaco.

Tools. The Super Water Absorber is a quilted drying cloth; wash it without fabric softener. The Surface Smoother Mini is a 100g clay bar for bonded contamination. The Exterior Brush has synthetic bristles for wheels, grilles and badges, the Interior Detailing Brush natural bristles for vents and dashboards, and the Digloss Kamitore wheel sponge cut-pile microfibre over a durable inner sponge. Keep it all in the Detailing Kuferek Bag, which holds four waxes and four 500ml bottles.
