Think that's a ploy for discount count duckula

Can't really add to that, you could go on for ever.

just noticed that they still have some glass jar banana armour which comes with lime prime free

Oh and JD, I <3 all those products, infact thats exactly what I use, other than I use Light Fantastic wax. Also cant beat matt for service.

Never dealt with Matt, but have only heard good things about him. Need to order for about four customer's cars next week/weekend tomorrow morning for delivery by Friday, I4 may get a click.

He'll sort you out and get the stuff to you in plenty of time. Seriously great guy to deal with and very helpful for beginners like me.

LOL @ Best products for the best results!. Zymol Royale for you then!

IMO, you'd be better off speakin to one of the lads off the forum and getting them to detail it for you. Then buy ther basics:

Gritguard bucket
Shampoo
Sealant
Wax
Wheelwax
Tyre Gel (Blackfires)
Sponge(s) & Brushes
Interior stuff.

Fin!

i dont think theres any right answer to your question. Everyone has their own opinions on what works best for them However since its LY you own ill tell you that dodojuice orange crush is a fantastic wax (hai jamie x)

sorry to thread hijack, but we wanna give the car a really good clean and wax, but don't want to massively get into detailing. Halfrauds have got 3 for 2 on cleaning products and we just want the best we can buy from high st (although appreciate it's never going to beat the specialist stuff you can get). car is silver so we're looking for a good shine but know we'll never get that 'glass' look - what simple no-margin-for-error products would you recommend?

This is a good kit to get you going
http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/..._productId_158080_langId_-1_categoryId_165671

Get some EGP to put on at the end, and thats a respectable complete cleaning kit

Or if you want to buy separately, AG shampoo, AG SRP and AG EGP
