Question


Now I don't want to get into a "Mothers Vs WW" argument.......

< Someone on Evo forum mentioned Mothers a while back - felt it was superb, but perhaps just pipped by WW.....>

Anyway, their "premium" wax is also based on "#1 yellow carnauba".

Don't know of any UK suppliers, but I believe Mothers have a good reputation in the states....any of our US based folks tried it? If so....whadya reckon?

My Mothers far too old to be polishing cars


Nah, Never used the stuff but it's supposed to be pretty good..

I just use Maguires on the cars in the States..

If you do want to try some (Mothers) then email me and I'll bring some over to the Uk in a couple of weeks.

Another Meguiars user here. The Gold class stuff. It's excellent and a piece of cake to apply and very easy to wipe off without the white powdery stuff.

Thanks to everyone for the feedback!

My dad decided he fancied some too, so I'm just getting it airmailed from Mothers USA direct.....works out at approx £17 per 12oz tin, so not too bad. (I did find a UK source for this, bu he wanted £25 a tin (!))

Stephen ~ your link goes to the "Cleaner Wax"....is that what you've used? (I'm just getting the pure Carnauba ~ part 3 of their "Cleaning System", so hope it will be easier...??)
