What you going to do when the warranty runs out? Take the risk, or pay the huge premiums they're now asking?

Yours is a rather earlier example than mine - your being Jan 03, mine being Sept 03. At this rate, my warranty runs out in September - so we'll see what quotes I get. Can your friends help me, perhaps?

Clay bars are both Good
Swissol one is bigger ! and Yellow and more expensive
Meguiers Smaller and white showed the dirt easier IMHO
But both products are great IMHO
