Wot polish??
« on: 28 April 2007, 22:11:59 »

Just wondering what car polish/wax everyone uses on here to keep their Meega's looking shiny and mint?? :)

My Meega is an '02', looks as though it has never been polished in its life but has had plenty of visits to the car wash!!  The paint looks really 'spider webby' - even more noticable under sodium light; looks like someone cleaned it with a 'brillo pad!!' :o

I would like a smooth, wet 'glass like' finish free from the 'spider web' effect.  Any suggestions??

As a general polish I always tended to use 'Autoglym' super resin but I think in recent years the quality of this product has deteriorated and is now generally pretty poor!!

I use Simoniz 96B2 which is at home on rubber as it is on the paintwork.  I also use Williams F1 showcar finish (similar product to Turtelwax Gloss Guard) to give it a mirror like sheen in between major waxes.

Unfortunately both these products are no longer sold ( but I have enough for a couple of years)  :y

Try looking at Auto Express results on current polishes available, info is good and free on line  :)

Me and the tractor have an understanding. It will not get washed until it learns to behave.

The MV6 usually gets whatever I have in the garage....

'American Car Wash' in Kings Cross, £7.95 for outside only, or £11.95 for inside & out, and every 10th wash is free. That's it...
