Problem is there is no consistency, yesterday I may or may not have been ;) in a stream of traffic on a lightly populated M4 doing 85 and we passed a police car with a hand held laser gun. He didnt give chase though until some BMW driver toning it was stopped a few miles further on.

IMo everyone speeds at some point in their life and it is luck of the draw if they catch you.
38mph in a 30 zone outside a school at chucking out time would be criminal but 38mph in same zone at 3am is neither here nor there!!
This is my own personal preference and I do this about twice a year, otherwise I just wash weekly and wax once a fortnight. It seems to work well on my dark coloured cars:
Wash with 2 bucket method, NXT shampoo and wool wash mitt.
Clay with megs pro clay and quik detailer

The above advice is no different to what youl find on bespoke detailing forums such as autopia. Nothing in the first post is bad we havent advised you to use sandpaper or a jet wash on your paintwork!
It would be useful rather than simply slating it to actually say why it is wrong I...

You then buff it off and it must then remain dry for 24 hours to let the polymers set themselves up. A second coat...
It actually contains a small amount of glaze and a small amount of chemical cleaner lol!
If you look at the other pictures they are of customer carshttp://www.cliosport.net/forum/smileys/smiley5.gif
It would appear your opinion is about as accurate as your product knowledge lol!
Check out these cars topped with NXT wax, your obviously not doing it right...
It will be chemicals only i.e. no accsessories and will consist of their consumer range. should you wish to know what products ring the meg helpline on 08702416696, they do not have a list of stores but I would read it as their major stores rather than a small high street store!!!!

Some chav tried to break into my cup today with the wife in it!!!!
