    I got it last year(ish).

    At first I thought it was good, but have since decided it is cheaper/easier/better to wash with a bucket & sponge and dry with a good quality chamois.. :)

    I got it last year too. I was quite disappointed with it. I have since bought a whole heap of Meguiars car cleaning products, and there stuff is awesome.

    It takes a lot of work, but the results are brilliant.

    HI Smarty.

    where did you get the meguiars products from? i have a few myself but find them hard to find. halfords have started stocking them but their range isnt exactly the best.

    but to the OP, i second the use of meguairs stuff. it's great, albeit a little expensive. if you dont want the hassle of water spots then do as another poster mentioned .... take the car for a quick spin!

    I have used stuff called Devil Shine in the past. Mix up some in a bucket and throw it over your washed car. It beads the water quickly, leaves it spot free and nice and shiney. I thought it was good stuff!

    I used it on my bike a couple of times, it was good. Then the bloody resivoir (sp) and the green crap leaked out.

    I went back to my hose and autoglym shampoo, I didn't feel like I'd actually cleaned it with the Flash gun. I think you get better satisfaction by doing it the old fashioned way.

    I got it in Halfords.

    I think the clay is the most important part. I had never used clay before.
