Otherwise call me Sunday at 5pm before I head west to go home and I'll see if I can drop by or meet somewhere. My Number 07966 713177

Mark,
Obviously you are the man when it comes to wax/cleaning products! Any chance of putting together a Scooby kit, for interior, exterior + engine buy and doing a deal on price if we bulk buy though scoobynet, i'm sure you could get at least 25 people together.
I use Mer at the moment on my VW (awaiting a nice scooby to buy) and it is a pain, gets everywhere and as usual is not as good as it promises!

I've seen a bottle of Zymol wax at Halfords tonight, £12. Is this stuff any good ? Better than Autoglym ?

What you saw in Halfords is Zymol Cleaner Wax. It really a Turtle Wax product as it is made by them. If the address on the bottle says Made for and has Slemersdale lancashire addy its made by Turtle Wax!

ps- dont leave your water balde on the roof after cleaning the car, drive of, have it fall off on the road, go back when your wife passes it in her car and calls you to say what she saw in the road outside the house and then find that she failed to mention that she drove over it!!!! Tiggs tip!

I'm up for a group buy - I remember on the old WW site there were Specific starter kits for Different cars and colours - Is it possible to do a sinlge starter kit for two different cars ? (Subarus DBM and BMW Black).

Cheers

Yes it is possible to have one kit for two different marques.

You'd need the Saphir Wax Starter Kit or a Shield Wax with Teflon Starter Kit.

I am refering to the cotton terry towelling.

If you have a microfibre, then I suggest that you allow the wax (Titanium) to cure and haze over. This means that when you apply the wax it will appear to be very greasy and also appears greasy after you have wiped it in one direction. Wait until the wax dries and appears to go hazy or grey in colour. Then with the microfibre cloth folded, just push the cloth gently over the waxed surface. The haze will disappear and you get gloss as a result.

After you have waxed the whole car take a warm terry towel or two and buff the whole car briskly...takes a couple of minutes. Allow the car to stand in direct sunlight for an hour or so and then rebuff briskly with a terry towel.

You are more than mate...all part of the service. :-)

Trust you enjoy!

If you like to discuss more the details of applying the wax then pse do call me on 07966 713177 and I'll be more than happy to guide you. Depending where you are, I could always stop by and show you first hand whilst on my travels!
