I used Turtle's waterless wash stuff followed by a demonshine quick shine stuff. It's not bad actually.

Went out to the car a few days ago and the beading was awesome - even a week after its quick clean.

Didn't manage to get a pic - was running late lol

Being a reseller of inspired I use almost all their products somewhere on my car! Haha!

I applied finalise to protect it for a few weeks until I was ready to give it a good machine polish.. and yet here we are almost two months later protecting like it did the day I applied it! Bit annoying really as I don't want to remove it.. but I know I'm going to have to! Haha :)

My car had been used as a toilet by the local seaguls and was covered in sand (I can see the sea from my sofa lol). Was bored so thought I'd try the waterless stuff - 3 for 2 on cleaning in Halfords plus the discount...worth a shot...turns out it's not bad - took about 20 minutes to do the lot!! (Taking it easy because of the sand)

I'm the same!! The harbour is at the end of my road :(

I've found if I park about 2 minutes down the road,the car rarely gets attacked. Park outside the house and the seagulls go into !Removed! mode & the local drunks boot my mirrors off and steal my Ariel!

You'll have to post some images when you next use it! Having a detailing company makes it difficult to try waterless products due to having to outskill the other local detailers (of which there's a lot :( )

Hoping so I've got some new wipers there just to make sure they are clean and don't ruin it if I need to use them.

I tend to use the Simoniz polish then their hard wax once or twice a year and use the demon shine as a top up after every wash. On the windows I use rainX which is great but I find it smears on the windscreen. Not so bad in the summer but in the winter head lights just blur my vision. Pictures to come...

I can supply it bellow RRP & it's 100% worth the money! It'll last for 2 years before beginning degrade as it modifies the structure of the plastic! Also, a tiny bit goes a VERY long way

What's that?

The surface must be clean of grease, dirt, previous products (silicones etc).

Otherwise the product may cause problems or just wash off

Panel wipe does all of the above and then evaporates leaving a nice clean dry surface :). Good glass cleaner too ;)
