The big question is how long do you want to spend on it in one day Paul. Autoglym gives a pretty good finish in quick time. This will take you a couple of hours on a good day. Then a little attention to the wheels silicone cleaner on the windows and some tyre gloss and you are there.

Not seen it before but I am an old sceptic. Tried many miracle products over the years some work some dont. One bit worries me. How does it work? ULTRA-IONâ„¢ cleans polishes seals and protects without using water. 1-2 Spray. Dirt grime insects bird droppings tar brake dust are emulsified and held in suspension 3 Wipe Clean 4 Buff to leave a brilliant shine. To me this means loosen the dirt and grit then rub onto the paintwork. As a person that uses the two bucket method one with a grit guard this would scare the out of me. No shortcuts Im afraid Paul.

No probs Paul I have a vast range of stuff in the garage which I get at a err very good price. I will drop you a few things that should be pretty good for you to try. Its all very accessible much of it from Halfrauds although its cheaper online. See what you think and I will give you the address of my supplier. Different products work for different people on different cars so there is a lot of trial and error. Will catch you at our local one evening next week bud.
