New group buys from Mark at Swissol
We all know how great these products are so hurry and get your order in before the stock runs out

1) The Shield wax
starter kit normally £175 plus p&p GROUP BUY SPECIAL £150 all in. This is a
concours wax with the addition of Teflon for increased durability and comes
complete with a free clay bar kit. Other contents are the shampoo, cleaner
fluid, all applicastors, buff towels, free storage bag, tyre treat and
comprehensive instructions (60 page booklet)

2) Also on offer is the Saphir starter kit...reduced to £120 all in
delivered
instead of £135 plus p&p. This kit does not contain clay bar kit but other
wise the same as the Shield Kit.

Either kit would be most suitable for any make and or colour of vehicle.

A Starter Kit contains the following: a 250ml bottle of shampoo concentrate
(we have extracted the Aqua ala water to make a super concentrate) and this
will give around 600 litres of wash water enuff for some 40 odd washes.
You also get 250ml of Paint Cleaning Fluid to cleanse the paint and to
restore it former lustre and is enuff for 4 applications or 2yrs of supply
being done every 6 months. A 250 gm pot of wax which will provide around 45
to 50 complete waxings of your car...wax once per month as recommended for
optimum gloss and protection you have 4 yrs worth of wax, you also get all
the requisite applicators and buffing towels, Tyre Treat to look after your
tyres, an owners guide which tells you "How To" for each product plus tons
of tips etc and a FREE storage bag (worth £14.99 retail) to keep all the
gear in. The contents therefore remain the same in each starter kit and it
is the wax that will vary the price. The Shield wax with Teflon also
includes a clay bar. The guide will take thru step by step from initial
washing thru to the final waxing. The clay bar is used to remove any surface
contaminants that washing alone cant remove and really speeds up the
preparation of your vehicle. The clay will remove brake dust from panels,
tar spotting, bug splatter and even the fine black specks of embedded brake
residue that you see on your wheels. There is enuff clay to prepare at least
five vehicles.

TO ORDER - email your details to mark@swissol.com
remember to say you want the Scoobynet group buy to get the deal!

Boomer...its a new comprehensive manual, in colour and tabbed. It was printed after the last group buy was held. It is available in German, English, French, Italian and Afrikaans! Sorry but we are not releasing it over the web.

Chris B....the factory are doing the promotion with the free clay kit with the Shield wax as a special intro offer in all markets. it will be removed soon...so your last chance.

If however you'd like the clay kit as a group buy the factory has agreed that this can go for £25 ontop of the cost of the special on Saphire wax.


The product that removes the swirls is cleaner fluid (cleanse). For bad swirling there is cleaner fluid medium.

The offer closes Friday 16th August and I then go over to make the wax and bring back the orders. Delivery to Uk addy's will be by or inn time for the Bank Holiday weekend.

There ARE a total of 80 starter kits up for grabs.

So if the clay bar kit is free, how come it costs more for the same kit?

Chris

I too was confused until I READ the post again

The contents therefore remain the same in each starter kit and it
is the wax that will vary the price
I assume the 1st kit is better quality wax

Mark,

Is there a problem with your email?

I have emailed you twice in the last week regarding the MicroTex towel not being in my starter kit from the original GB, but have heard nothing.

I believe that there should be a MicroTex towel in the kit and asked if this will be sent with the California water blade which I also did not receive with the kit, when can these be expected to arrive?

Thanks

Ewan McLean

After spending six hours cleaning my car properly for the first time (wash, clay, clense, wax, buff, buff) I can say this is the most imppressive cleaning kit I have ever seen and the ease of use is amazing.

Just put the wax on the car with the sponde and leave it for a bit.

I was cleaning the car at the same time as a friend that is liekly to be moving from another product as a result of what he saw!


I can't recommend this or Mark's customer service highly enough.

Any chance that when you send out the outstanding blades from the original Group Buy you could include the new 60 page guide, if not how much. I would like to add after following the 3 page guide with the kit my car has never looked so stunning, even neighbours came over to look and comment on the finish, totally satisfied, all done with left hand as well due to right arm in plaster after a MX accident!!!

Steve.
