Totally missed reading that, in that case lets just ignore this thread people - unless you have £6500 and are looking for a Cat D 197 then i have assisted your hunt.
Direct Line are always pretty good although i am with Tesco now, DO NOT USE ADRIAN FLUX - Yes they may be cheap but you will see why when/if you change your vehicle or need to claim again. treat them like the plague!!!!!
To be honest you should be able to get all you need for under £70, see below for the basics you would need then head to a supermarket for a couple of buckets and cloths like others have mentioned

It seems to have been totally over looked but it depends when you say you have 'No' cleaning products whether you're including equipment i.e. hose pipe, pressure washer? Clearly the latter is not as crucial if you're just after getting the basics to keep it clean but will make life easier.
I was under the impression the 'Cup' had the crap Dynamique steering wheel?
Wowey that car does not look anywhere near as tidy as i remember seeing it at the Mall car park, weren't those wheels almost new when you had them on the car Schweppy?

problem is small bits of contamination really show up on mint silver alloys so i am keen to remove this so will go ahead and clay, thanks for your suggestion though Ali
thanks JD, got some Poorboys wheel sealant for the job anyway but am doing a mates wheels on the weekend and wanted to confirm whether or not polishing is required after claying, thanks
Thanks jim, yes have got a few snaps but they're not great I have got an ok 50/50 of the roof which I am pleased with though, shall whack a couple up later.
The 6131 is now ordered too :)
well it turned out i got the hang of it pretty soon after my original post, towards the end i was getting well happy with my work. managed to finish it off and get waxed before the rain came down, literally rained just as i started getting all my stuff in. My mate was well chuffed with the...
As lots have suggested it's worth getting some old panels from a scrappy to practice on I was lucky enough to have a mate with a shonky van that he was more than happy for me to practice on.
I have fully washed it, clayed the entire van and re washed before drying thoroughly.
I assume I...
