Has anyone had any experience of the above, it's usually offered by main dealers when you buy a new motor off them. Thinking about an alternative to spending 3 hours on a sunday playing karate kid.

Thumbs up

Never been so impressed as I am with Supagard (www.supagard.co.uk) also offered at dealers. There's 2 kits that I see that are worth having the paint sealent cream + shampoo and most of all the Alloy Wheel protector and cleaning kit, it's just amazing. The finish and longevity of the product on the Alloys is simply outstanding! But best of all the simplicity of application of both is such a breath of fresh air against your taditional wax products.

Swissol are now looking at something similar & it will certainly be better, everything else they do is. Suggest you contact the Wax Wizzard if you are interested

I got my Terzo done when I bought the car. Cost a small fortune. The dealer pushed it quite hard coz they get a 'kin good margin on it.

Looked ok for a while.

Then I got Gossy to do the car with the Wax Wizzard stuff. Amazing 100% better finish, lasted longer and cost a lot less than the dealer price.

A tenner, a VW dealer in Manchester wants to charge me £250 to have it done, he can suck my **** if he thinks I'm paying that when he's knocking it out to his mates for f*ck all.

LMAO at the zymol website, what do they put in their product to make a car resistent to stone chips, what a load of crap.

The following scenario springs to mind.

Car travelling down motorway
Stone flying in opposite direction heading directly for car
Lucky for me I had protected my car with Zymol the stone will just get deflected by the wax.

Dont you just love the way the people that market this stuff will say anything to get the poor unsuspecting punter to part with their cash.
