AUTO-BALM
Anti-corrosion high gloss wax for older paint work.
-
Protect your car by making it shiny!
Auto-Balm is a unique product that provides protection and gloss to automotive paintwork, car bodywork, chrome and metal surfaces.
The result of thousands of hours of development and testing, Auto-Balm is a blend of synthesised, complex corrosion inhibiting molecules that lock together tightly, enabling them to remain functional in an ultra-thin, high-gloss film. Auto-Balm seals capillary pores in paintwork and provides an anti-corrosion barrier against stone chips and other damage sites on vehicle paintwork.
Auto-Balm will also protect and provide shine to chrome, aluminium and alloys. Auto-Balm is not an abrasive polish. If the vehicle’s bodywork is faded or in poor condition, the use of Cleanser-Polish is recommended before application.
AUTO-CLAY
Effortlessly lift iron particles from paintwork and leave the paint as smooth as glass.
-
Auto Express Product Award winner 2017
Our clay bars are designed to effortlessly restore the factory smooth finish to paint finishes. They have received critical acclaim in the detailing industry for being the most durable, cost effective and well-designed clay-bars available today.
Auto Express magazine, a giant in the car magazine world, has awarded Auto-Clay with their Best Clay Bar Award every year for the last five! Also, they compared the clay-cloths to clay-bars in one recent test, where they concluded that bars were better, and that Auto-Clay was the pick of the bunch once again!
So which clay bar do you need?
The choice between the Auto-Clay bars will depend on several factors:
Regular –
If the vehicle is heavily contaminated, has never been clay-barred before, or it’s hot summertime then use Regular. All clay bars become firmer when cold and softer when warm.
Medium –
For paintwork that is in a reasonable condition, Medium will be preferred.
The easier folding of the clay to expose a fresh working surface will be very beneficial.
Soft –
If paint is in good condition, if you like to clay your vehicle frequently or indeed if the weather is cold, then use Soft.
Why use a clay bar?
Assess the degree of embedded metallic and brake dust debris that has entered the surface of your paint film by gently rubbing the paint with fingertips. Feel for the grittiness that these damaging particles impart to paint films.
Using Bilt-Hamber Auto-Clay bars – regular, medium or soft – you will effortlessly remove particles, leaving the paint glass-smooth. Discolouring road film will also be gently lifted.
Claying will make a world of difference when lubricated with plenty of water and hardly any pressure. The bar glides like an ice hockey puck, and is pleasant and satisfying to use.
Not only does the paint feel and look a lot better once clayed, but the removal of these objects sticking to the surface allows the next stages of paint care to progress far more smoothly. As now cleansers, waxes and polishes glide across the surface far more easily.
It is highly recommended that before using a clay bar the paint is pre-treated with Korrosol. This high activity cleaner actively removes embedded metallic particles in a simply spray on rinse off action. By removing these particles before the Auto-Clay bar is used, the bar will last longer and concentrate its action on the remaining contamination.
AUTO-QD
Auto-QD is a highly concentrated quick detailing spray.

Auto-QD concentrated quick detailing spray
Auto-QD is a unique concentrated quick detailing spray. It is particularly suited to use over Auto-Balm, but it has a wide range of other uses…
It safely removes dust and grime without scratching
Unique charged polymers suspend particulate matter to protect highly finished automotive paints from hologram scratching.
Between washing, Auto-QD acts as an effective “waterless wash” product, saving time and water and preventing cobweb scratching that can be imparted by non-charged products.
The high-shine protects and beautifies paintwork, inhibits UV degradation and oxidisation.
It also very effectively preserves previously applied last stage products (LSPs) such as waxes and sealers like Cleanser-Polish, Auto-Balm, Finis-Wax, Double Speed-Wax, Hydra-Wax and Micro-Fine.
Water-based and safe for all automotive paint finishes, Auto-QD quickly revives gloss and does not result in chemical build-up or dusty chalky residue.
Will effectively clean paintwork after compounding stages and does not mark or stain plastic trim, rubber or composites and will impart protection and sheen to them too. Great for vinyl finishes.
Can be diluted with water to provide extremely economical LSP preservation which is particularly suited to Auto-Balm and as a drying aid to prevent water-spotting of hard water.
Auto-QD can also be used as a lubricant for Auto-Clay to provide a gloss-enriched finish. Used in combination, the stunning finish is ready to go in one hit.
CLEANSER-FLUID
Cleans and primes paintwork for maximum wax durability.
-
Cleanser-Fluid pre-treatment paint cleaner
Deep cleans pores of road film, old waxes, tar etc., and primes paint for waxes
In the same way as one would never dream of painting an oily or greasy surface, paint should also be deep cleaned to ensure that waxes bond to a crisp clean surface for maximum adhesion.
Cleanser-Fluid is a unique product exclusively from Bilt-Hamber Laboratories. It provides the deepest non-abrasive cleaning for the paint surface before the application of waxes and sealers.
Used to replace harsh IPA cleaners, Cleanser-Fluid removes all traces of oil-based road films, polish residue and LSP remains. Use after the claying process to perfectly prime the surface and boost the longevity of waxes etc.
CLEANSER POLISH
All-in-one paint polish, excellent filling of blemishes.
-
Award-winning car polish
Cleanser-Polish is an award-winning resin based polish that provides exceptional levels of mechanical refinement and cleaning for your vehicles paintwork. Used after claying to provide an optically clear, deep rich shine – it is an excellent all-in-one product.
The treated surfaces are now resistant to environmental attack and also they are super-smooth, glossy and friction-free.
Easy to use both in application and buffing – this product fills minor swirls, hologram-like scratches and minor defects.
Where stone-chip damage penetrates to bare steel you should use it in conjunction with Auto-Balm.
Only Cleanser-Polish scored 15 out of 15 in a blind independent car polish test.
DOUBLE SPEED WAX
Cleans and primes paintwork for maximum wax durability.
-
The carnauba wax used provides a deep rich glossy, highly water repellent and detergent resistant film.
Double Speed-Wax provides an economic and superior alternative to costly paste waxes which simply do not compete performance wise with this material.
Double Speed-Wax has won the Auto Express ‘Best Wax and Sealant’ Award for the last 10 years running.
FINIS-WAX
Carnauba rich high gloss paste wax with a durable film.
-
Finis-Wax T1 carnauba paste car wax
Finis-Wax is a superior paste wax designed for the last stage treatment of highly finished automobile paint systems.
The high grade T1 carnauba wax is the backbone of this formulation that provides a deep rich gloss. Ease of application and buffabilty are provided by other gloss enhancing molecules.
Finis-Wax outperforms other far more expensive carnauba based waxes.
We’ll stand by Finis-Wax to the extent that if you do not find in your own side-by-side testing that the product lasts longer we’ll refund the purchase price! This guarantee applies only when Finis-Wax is used after Cleanser-Fluid.
Inferior waxes rely on heavy use of oils to plasticise the wax film thereby irreversibly reducing the properties of the waxes in the formulation. We avoid the use of any materials that reduce the effect of carnauba wax. However, we do enhance its ability to provide protection by the reaction of it with unique in-house materials.
Easy to use and produces a wet-look shine
We’re often asked if Finis-Wax is a hard or soft wax. Rather than regard the firmness of the contents in the aluminium container we prefer to describe the condition of the wax film produced by the product. Finis-Wax imparts a hard film to paint surfaces; this is more durable and protective.
The hard film provides tremendous beading that not only looks great but can help prevent osmotic blistering of highly finished automotive surfaces.
Finis-Wax is free from abrasives and should be applied to good condition paint. This is easy to achieve using Korrosol and Auto-Clay.
HYDRA-WAX
Ultra-durable deep shine liquid carnauba wax.
-
Ultra durable deep shine liquid carnauba wax
Hydra-Wax is a superior, super-easy-to-use last stage treatment for the protection of highly finished automobile paint systems. The high grade T1 carnauba wax is used as the backbone to provide a deep rich gloss. Unlike other automotive waxes, excellent gloss, ease of application and buffability are provided by other gloss enhancing molecules. To achieve the ultimate smooth glass-like finish, the paint should be in good condition. This can be easily achieved before use with Korrosol and Auto Clay bar, before Hydra-Wax treatment.
Detergent-proof water beading
This product offers detergent-proof longevity. It will continue to bead water long after more expensive sealers, premium paste waxes and so called ‘nano coatings’ have failed. For longest durability, pre-cleaning of paint using Cleanser-Fluid is recommended.
Non-abrasive and dirt repellent
Hydra-Wax is a particularly good choice for those who want an excellent water and dirt repellent shiny finish to their paintwork, with ease and infrequent application. It is also an excellent choice for those who wish to apply a product as frequently as every week.
With easy application and satisfying buffing, no dust is produced and there are no abrasives to wear away the paint. We guarantee that this will give the user the most satisfying waxing experience ever.
MICRO-FINE
Liquid carnauba wax with built-in cleaning power.
-
One-step carnauba based paint cleaner and finishing wax
Micro-Fine is a one-step cleansing and protection product specifically for use on top quality paint finishes. The product contains high levels of carnauba and other waxes to produce a durable and protective film that is highly compatible with Finis-Wax and Hydra-Wax, although it can be used as a highly effective stand-alone product for use on lightly aged paint work to rejuvenate and seal in a deep gloss. Micro-Fine can be used frequently, is extremely easy to use and produces a highly detergent resistant, water repellent finish.
Multi-purpose all-in-one product
Micro-Fine contains micro particle abrasives for fine paint cleansing and conditioning. Ideal for paintwork in excellent condition. The micro-sized particles will remove traces of old polishes and waxes, compound ‘fillers’ and road film remains, but will not inflict swirls or cobweb like holograms to highly prepped paint.
Micro-Fine can be used:
On new or recently corrected paint.
To remove light marring.
After claying.
As an all in one polish and wax.
Before Finis-Wax or Hydra-Wax.
