I'm making a Wiko Rose kit and the instructions say to add the finings sachet, which is just the one chitosan sachet and leave for 10 days to clear. Wine kits I've done in the past from other makers have always come with two sachets - kieselsol and chitosan and have cleared within 48 hours.
Will this one sachet of chitosan work or should I go to wilko to buy a packet of 2 part finings?

It will clear it eventually but for fast clearing in my experience the two part ones are the best, i use KwiK Clear or Youngs clear it.
 
Look into getting some gelatine, too. Last wine kit I had wouldn't even clear with the two part finings. I used dissolved gelatine and it was insanely clear the day later. Probably helped by the other two finings.
