Microfiber Waffle Weave drying towels are much safer/better than both the above, both can cause damage as they allow stuff to get traped between them. Site is down from the link, sure it will be back up soon.

Once a year before a big machine polish - Rinse, wash with the two bucket method, shampoo and a lambswool Mitt. AG Tar Remover as needed, re-wash those areas, rinse. While still wet clay using a soapy water mixture, rinse or rewash if needed. Dry with a Microfiber Waffle Weave Drying Towel.

Wash - As I was doing lots of Polishing, cheapo halfords own, normally Sonax Gloss Shampoo. Dry with A large Pakshak Waffle Weave Drying Towel http://www.cleanandshiny.co.uk/ProductDetails.asp?ProductID=9170

Washing - lamswool mitt here for me, some like the Microgfiber one, both are much better than a sponge. Car wash - my current top choice is Sonax Gloss Shampoo from Vauxhall Dealers. Well priced, good suds, and well lubricating. Pads yeah spot on, different manufacters colour then different...

Not one I have ever seen or tried.

Sod it I will just order the big one reading the reviews of it on here. If I dont like it on my baby, it can always be used up on my daily drive - it wont go to waste!

Have to agree - It sure is, not as ugly as the curve in the glass of the rear screen which the cup spoiler covers much better though.

If it is tar I would remove it with AG Tar and Adhesive remover rather than relying on Clay to shear it off.

Nice one, just the shampoo really before buying a whole one. Will drop you a PM.

They were not at all competitive for me either.

Dan's from Malvern as well, im sure he will see this with regards to meeting up first.

Nice one.

LOL. Water is a pain, just can justify 4 quid for roll of tape all the time!

Welcome to CS. Sorry to hear about the Trophy niggles.

I use those on my cars seem fine to me (3 odd years use so far)

Can of air is your friend!

Any chance of any smaller samples for people on here to try it out first?

There are lots of other options but most only really suitable by machine. Scratch X really is the best formulated for hand.

You want to be drying better lad ;)

If I know it's staying maked up for some time I use the Blue stuff, as it's lower tack and leaves no residue. Most of the time I use normal cheapo white stuff for a quarter of the price!

SSR 2.5 Start on 2 to spread it around, then up to 5/6 Same for the Speed Glaze. Proper Glazes start on 2 then speed up to 4. Sealants and Liquid waxes 2-4 The sppeds should increase quite proportionaly 1-5 and then there is big speed jump to 6 I think.

All depends on how contaminated the car is - about an hour normally including the glass and wheels.

Dont think I have seen a pic of it from an angle I like yet!

:( Gutting, hope you get it all sorted chap.

Nice one, enjoy the new car. Looking forward to the pics.

Looked composed on track.

As always said they shouldnt be much in them, would have be intresting what happened at the top end when the CTR got its legs.

Hell yeah of course - made in france by the same frenchmen that built the 1*2's!

Shaun does a good write up of what to get here http://www.detailingworld.co.uk/showthread.php?t=136 I would advise two of each of the normal sized 6 inch pads, Light Cut, Polishing and Finishing, and a set of the Spot 4 inch pads are essential IMO for the smaller panels on the Clio, Wings...

Nice shots.
