Sorry to bother you again mate but just been looking now and found about 3 different web addresses for mark. Will they all reach the guy?
Also there are loads of different products available and im stumped for choice. Just bought a brand new evo 7 so want to protect it in this weather with a wax and i also want a nice washing product. Any advice would be gratly appreciated. I will also contact mark on the address you gave me.

Thanks

Mark is normally contactable on the numbers below & is very helpful on the mobile, if you want advice I suggest you ring him. If you can afford it get him to come & do one of his "the dogs do das" valets on it, seems expensive initially but when you realise he will spend the best part of a day on the car its worth it. The results are unbelievable & it will give you a good basis to carry on from. If you dont want that expense just talk to him re what you require, he does some very good basic kits but remember, waxing is the easy bit, its the preperation that needs time.

Thankyou all very much. I rang him back earlier and he was very helpful and friendly indeed. I almost got a kit but was stopped because i wasnt to sure about giving my details to someone i had never meet, only heard about through hearsay. I will look around and do abit more research first then i will see. You have to be careful because there are alot of con artists on the net. (No offence Mark) but you realise i have to be careful and want to find out abit more first since you do not accept checks, paymeant on delivery or give out any samples, therefore am just being weary before i part with my hard earned.

May give you a ring tomorrow or after Christmas because im eager to obtain a few of your products. Thanks.

Anymore advice or opinion on the wax wizard would be greatly appreciated so i can make better informed judgement.

Mark is as trustworthy as they come.

He gets a lot of business based on his reputation, and he spends a lot of time on this board. A lot of people on the board (myself included) have met him, have purchased from him, and will continue to do business with him.

Don't worry - be happy!

As others have said Mark is 101% trustworthy, his free advice is always handy via the mobile, if you get any nasty marks he has always got a way of getting them off, often using something from the kitchen cupboard. His products are brilliant & I especially love the waxes as they dont leave that white stain in awkward corners & on matt surfaces you get with many comercial polishes.
I am in Winchester, if you are close & want to chat/look or if you just want a chat for peace of mind call me on 07799 623693
Mark did not gain the nick name the WAX WIZZARD without good reason

Agreed. Mark is very trustworthy and you will not get ripped off. In fact, the 1st time I dealt with him, when he didn't know me, he sent me 2 Water Blades out before I'd sent him the cheque. What a trusting soul!!!

Think you must have misinterpreted him. He doesnt accept cards, and only cheques if I remember correctly.

Things may have changed as when I first dealt with him, the Company was a different one. Now he's Swissol, I think he only accepts cards.

Cool

scrappydoo...my contact details: 07966 713177. I also left you my home number on your voicemail the other day.
Email: mark@swissol.com or waxwizard@blueyonder.co.uk OR waxwizard@eurobell.co.uk

Payment terms: Mastercard or visa only for goods being sent direct from factory.

If goods in stock then cheque or cash is fine. Will also be taking cards early in the New Year for all purchases.

Valet service: Two rates apply cheque or cash. Pound notes gives best price.

In this case scrappydoo it is card payment only. However the factory has now closed and we reopen again on Monday 6th January.

Hopefully by end of January I will have a £15k stock level hear in the UK.

Have a good Xmas and an even better New Year.

Thanks gan for your kind support.

PS...Scrappydoo...U can always order via scoobyworld!
