cleaning products

[mikeoxford]

is there any mail order companies etc you can get cheap cleaning products for cars ?

dont want to wait till the shows - car will need cleaning before then :lol: and i cant wait until the car show day to buy auto glym polish etc because stands might not open early enough :lol:

[mikeoxford]

halfrauds:

63.94

on top of that i got to buy a sponge, chamois, or hydra blade.

halfrauds do a couple of sets, which save you a four or five pounds. might invest in one of those.

i use autoglym. extra gloss polish, super resin polish, wheel cleaner, window polish and interior cleaner. on my tyres i use some stuff called wet and black which i think is a turtle wax product

Use Meguiars... I use to use autoglym and thought it was amazing.. until I tried this stuff.. its the bollocks!

Go to http://www.cleanandshiney.co.uk

Can thoroughly recommend them, the guy who owns it is a friend of a friend, mention Breeny from Cruise South sent ya if you can :)

i get discount on autoglym at my local parts shop, so it's not worth me swapping. unless i can persuade them to start stocking it

Furry muff... but speaking as as a normal consumer I wouldn't go back to autoglym... lol

Meguiars shampoo smells soo nice aswell! (Not that it matters! :lol:)

Does it leave your hands soft too? LOL :lol:

I've just bought a kit for wheels called "Muck-Off". It comes with Alloy cleaner (that won't destroy your alloys like some cleaners), different sized brushes to get in between the spokes, sponges and a tyre gel.

Good stuff.

what do i need to buy??? again - same as autoglym they stock lots of stuff!

i understand autoglym extra gloss, has a higher shinee factor than super resin etc....

[benji]

you only need to use extra gloss once or twice a year

Never believe how mags rate stuff. It's all rated on how much the mag gets paid to say nice things about the product. Always go off someone else's experience.
