A few Turtle Wax products that I ordered arrived today from Halfords. I was very surprised as they were not expected to arrive until next Tuesday!

I got some wax, with an applicator pad, glass cleaner and some rapid drying shampoo all for £18 including delivery. Not bad I thought. Very Happy

Yep will take some pics. Thumbs Up

Not many people seem to use turtle wax, I have always found it to be good. Confused

Well their Ice Synthetic Paste Polish gets very high reviews everywhere I see it so it can't be that bad - it's less than £10 on Amazon with the applicator and polishing towel which seems pretty good value for something which might be considered entry level.

I've not tried it personally but I have some coming in the post tomorrow Thumbs Up The BEST looking half of the famous Twinlanders Ner Ner

Laughing Was that Zipwax? I will drop by halfords tomorrow and get some more, it wasn't available for delivery. Sad It gives a good shine and is good value. What more could you ask for!?

Tell me about it. Big Cry

Haven't ordered the RRS yet, but it is seeming more likely. If I don't order it's on the cards for the freelanders replacement next year. Thumbs Up

Most of my products are Turtle Wax, some of them are new and I am hoping to try them out tomorrow. Very Happy
