Evening All,

Meguiars Next Gen Car Wash Kit

http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_storeId_10001_catalogId_10151_productId_210815_langId_-1_categoryId_165671

Its £15 in halfords at the moment where as its usually £40 in most other places.

Just thought some of you viewing the detailing board may be interested.

Regards
Dave

Spray wax, do you mean the top up one?

I've got a bottle which I use to give the company hack a bit of sparkle and I think it works really well. I do the whole car in 20 minutes.

It was called Migiuars tech spray wax.

Maybe it was something to do with the cold damp day today, but I had real trouble getting it buff up well.

I'll try again on a better day perhaps

Cold paint will not help with buffing off. I won't even attempt it this side of Easter, unless I've got the heater on in the garage.
