Is that the stuff that supposed to remove all dirt and week old stuck on cow muck with little more than a flick of a duster and no water?, and it come up like brand new? I was only wrong once and thats when I thought I was but wasnt.

Never heard "week old cow stuff" mentioned on any adverts - but it is on Ideal World regularly.

I've used it for about 5 yrears on my Celica's - tried it once of the FL2... looks fab... 2002 Honda VFR800

2008 Freelander 2 TD4 GS Manual Izmir Blue

I normally finish off with Fenwicks Bobby Dazzler. Beads up the water and feels like new paint when leathering off. Remember there are never problems, just new challenges

I can confirm that Autoglym can be found on the shelves behind the scenes on Aston Martin motor show stands....
