Rich Yarp, any of the Maguiars stuff is pretty recommended by all on this site. Any of there waxes, polishes, shampoos, detailers etc etc you get the picture. Some say its expensive but personally I dont really think it is. I used the shampoo, gold liquid wax ( I think thats what it is) and the Alloy wheel cleaner and tyre cleaner products. really are worth it. A slight cheap option is the new Turtlewax Ice range. I also use the Liquid Ice Polish and the Ice Detailer. Both give excellant results. Halfords did have 3for2 on all cleaner stuff recently unsure if that is still on, but it did include Maguiars stuff. Yep Halfords sell it too. Happy cleaning Andy Link to comment

Happy cleaning Andy Megs all the way, the Tech Wax range is fantastic, especially on lighter cars. Like Andy though, I've had a dabble with the Turtle Wax Ice stuff and although not as good as the Megs clay bar, their Liquid Ice clay bar is damned good for a pre-polish deep wash, well worth a go imho! Have fun and make sure you show us the results Sunday! Link to comment
FruityPebble Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 In the interest of aiding your cleaning skills knowledge, i can offer you, as selfless as i am..... one VERY VERY dirty car to clean if you need additional paintwork to practice on! I shall even make the effort to make it to your sunday meet ( i may still be in fancy dress i warn you) ... any takers? i can't see out of my windscreen just now ?? Link to comment
the_1 Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 hmmm been using zymol for ages now vintage is my favourite as it lasts for ages once applied but have heard good things about dodo juice might try some on the wifes car! Link to comment
andyjudge Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 I use turtle was Ice stuff or Megs See you Sunday Link to comment
stum450n Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 Evening guys and gals DoDo Juice all the way, the stuff is awesome I've been using zymol for a few years and tried DoDo last month and haven't look back, check it out on eBay. I should be a salesman FP!! Nice try If it where a dark car mate, I would completely agree, dodo juice really adds depth to the colour but on a silver car the clarity is less important and the wet look of the Megs really does do the trick! Saying that, it depends on how far you want to get into it all. If the car is SUPER clean then for any light metallic paint I would go for Collinite 476S every time... I'm just too lazy to get mine that clean beforehand! Link to comment

I'm just too lazy to get mine that clean beforehand! Silver!! Anything makes it shine. Its the color any other color needs attention. Silver is fastest and cleanist... Lol Megs makes Cars look shiny end of. Not expensive not hard work. Just clean.! To me if it takes five times longer to wax it then thats five times less fun I have had driving..... Wash it fast, polish it fas,t drive it faster.................. Link to comment
gc8-r Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 so the dodo juice is the best for dark colours..... i'll have to try that one as mine needs a good going over..... any other good ones for "proper" blue car...... Link to comment

Either you are - Very hungry - Very Bored or - Too nice I would wash the car only under the threat of death/ grevious bodily harm tbh, not what i'd call fun! don't let me put you off though my car would be most grateful. BTW did i see you in Kidlington the other week? someone in a silver classic gave me the most serious nodd and wave i have ever seen i (obviously, nothing less should be expected from me) was right in the middle of munching on a strawberry and had to make the decision between eating and waving, clearly i chose eating and did my best to grin without dribbling!

I'm deadly serious, i just can't believe you are! seriously, he is really really mucky! i used to go to the polish boys in Witney but they left swirl marks on my paint work last time another case of hollow legs! i can eat for england, by all rights i should be the size of a house by now, god bless youth and good genes!
