I would ideally like to use I4detaling, but don't get paid till Friday and need some stuff for Saturday. Does anybody know of any places that sell snow foam kits and decent detailing gear in Warwickshire or Oxfordshire?
Thanks

Its my birthday next month so im going to have some extra cash. Was considering getting my car detailed but didnt know if it would be worth it. Winters coming so wouldnt really see the results but would this not protect my paint from the bad weather and salt/grit?
