Yeah i like them, when vxr's etc pull up next to you and see them there faces drop and you drop a gear and pull like mad away from them.

And thank you, will be getting a full machine polish in the morning.

If its the Soap Suds your after i would recommend the Meguiars NXT Gen Wash:

http://www.meguiars.co.uk/product/189/NXT-Generation-Car-Wash/

and get some autoglym Super Resin Polish for the polish stage.

Going to go for a half litre bottle of this to start with, just to see what it's like!
Unless someone suggests a better one before morning (doubtful as the reviews are great), then I'll order first thing!

Ta muchly.

Its ok dude jusst remember to get a wash mitt like lambswool too, dont use a sponge as its the easiest way to trap dirt and give you swirl marks, and use hot water in the bucket and smell it too smells great.

Not successful at all,took it down a bit but the teeth went blunt,so il be taking that back to the shop!

Lambswool, you say?
What's the general consensus? Labmswool or Microfibre?

Also, what you all recommend for drying? I use a natural chamois at the mo', but I'm reading that maybe it isn't the best thing?

Lambswool won't last as long as a microfibre. My lambswool mit lasted around five years, I've just bought a new Megs one.

I use an Elite car care XL drying towel, soaks up loads of water quickly

Five years is pretty good going, though!
Which would you say do a better job? Microfibre or Lambs wool?

I'll get one of these towels, too!

Thanks!

No sold it mate.
I loved it for the first month but after 3 months I took it off and fitted my Pipewerx downpipe with sports cat which gives good gains and slightly noisier than standard.
The miltek look great and sounded great maybe a little too boy racer ish.
I drive fairly quick and anything above 75 a 80mph and it's too noisy ie you might as well phone the police and tell them your speeding.
Also at that speed it's sounds great in the car if your in the mood but not every drive

Get a good towel I got a dodojuice one and its great, I use both lambswool and microfibre, microfibre one for the bottom of the car and the lambswool for top, then a wheel brush for wheels.

Thanks. I have to admit, I've never been a fan of using the same mitt on the top AND bottom of the car. Will order something today.

Any particular brand I should get? Links?
