    Best kept Astra vxr on the planet??

    Well... I've never met you, but..... In honesty, it's worth it. The 1st person that came to look at my Clio drove it away within 30minutes of seeing it Once a week max for me.

    After the many claims of people rating super acidic super wheel stripper that's safe on paints I'm surprised there's not been more suggestions. I've been searching for the thread were it started an argument on using aggressive stuff

    for pure ease of application and ability to top up in 5minutes should weather allow, maybe consider GTechniq C2 or C1.5. They do help with the self cleaning. granted may not look the best on red but for £10-15 is a viable option.

    What have you ordered? *Detailing*

    next order was going to be for drying towels and ironx. other than that I've been trying to sell bits off. Had no interest in the Z concours wax, and even considering getting rid of my full size jar of glasur. I like it, just not as much as I had hoped.
