    I normaly buy 2 euro car wax from the pound shop that I never use.
    Then I saw this video.
    https://youtu.be/kcdyPqRlsS4

    There is an informertial feel to the video.
    Now that I am brain washed: I want this stuff.
    What's impressive is how you can wax the trim and the glass.

    1) Where to get this stuff?
    If not
    2)Do you guys know of any similar product ?
    I am based in Galway.

    Thanks for that link nd
    I looked it up. With postage it comes up to 41 sterling , about 60euros for 3.7 ltr
    Its sounds good but that will be inherited by my ogrand kids as there is so much.
    Does anyone have any , surplus to their requirements that I can buy, or anyone else interested in going halves with me and buying half.or even 3 people would be better?
    If 3 of us combined our financial might , That would be about: 20 Euros three ways, getiing us just over a litre each.

    Slightly cheaper

    Stuff doesn't last that long, so to keep on top of it that 3 litre's wont last that long. As your man says the car gets 'detailed' every 2 weeks. Quite a bit of work for little gains/durability.

    Thanks edburg. That second link is a good bit cheaper, amounting to 45Euros to my door.
    I hear what your saying about the lack of longevity.

    I was out today looking for an alternative to the McGuire's expensive polish.
    I came across this in the pound shop:
    Astonish spray n shine for 1.50 euro
    And no shipping.
    I bet this stuff will also last 2 weeks!
    I don't know if its forgiving with trim like the mcguuores product I was after.

    Has anybody used it on a silver metallic car, and if so, what did you think of the product?

    Well you saw the video it looks good and easy to apply.
    I do wonder would it be any different to pledge furniture polish spray, in terms of longevity and result?

    Well I sprayed some of this stuff on the car. Its a see through liquid,like water. No waxy/oily bitsbin sight. I presume its based on silicon.
    I'll do a car tomorrow and report back in a week or two on before and after shots

    CarPro Reload would be worth a look - will do you want for the exterior, and very durable too!
    Recommend you check out a few videos on YouTube about it! ;)
