Auto Glym is what i used prior to getting a machine polisher, .

Yep I got the Meguiers G220 MkII, to be honest it cost quite a bit of money, if I goes pop, i will look at a cheaper version like the silverline or kestral DAS-6 ones

Don't forget you'll need a small backing plates and a assortment of pads, cutting, polishing, finishing etc

If your on detailingworld they get quite good reviews especially for somebody who won't use them everyday

If your thinking about a DA DaveKGs guide on DW is great info to go on Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

I use the cheapest stuff I find at the discount store, usually Turtle Wax products
No point wasting loads of cash that be used for diesel in the tank as the car will be just as dusty or even muddy next day after washing. Normally polish it twice a year (spring and autumn)

It is a car (automobile) and not a babys arse your washing - "Dodo Juice Born to be Mild" jessus  2007 Freelander 2 HSE TD4 Manual with Premium Pack & Moonroof.
Stornoway Grey with Ebony Black Pleather, Clear Indicators, Body Side Mouldings etc.

Each to there own

My mates laugh when i go on about cleaning my car, using microfibre drying towels, and wash techniques, polishes.

But they started droping hints that they have started washing theirs cars a little differently once i show them that theres are covered in swirl marks and mine wasn't

Still need to get the new one done mind you, but looking forward to having a few days doing it when i get the time and weather Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

So covering the bonnet with a Witney blanket, humming a lullaby and leaving the garage lights on overnight could be deemed a little excessive - well he is only 4months old.

ps - mostly use Autoglym shampoo and deep shine polish after a good leathering. MY 09 GS manual in Lago Grey, Wood Co arm rest and side bumper strips - now sold.

Black ones need a good rub down with a 50/50 mix of lard and sharp sand at least once a week to take that awful shine off the paint
