Whats available over the counter over there in the English countryside?

My advice, Klasse AIO and Meguires Gold Class on top.

I've been using Klasse AIO on my silverstone and it looks great. If you really want your paint to shine, try putting some P21S carnuba wax over the Klasse. I purchase most of my detailing products from www.autopia-carcare.com; however, I'm not sure how much the shipping would be to the UK. Good luck and definitely post some pics of your car after you've detailed it - we don't get to see moonrock very often here in the states.

Thank Guys

I think i will try P21s wax over the Meguairs 3 step process.

If it stops raining that is

You guys across the pond are teasing us - we *really* want to see some pics of a sharp Moonrock since we almost never see them Stateside.

PICS!!!

i use Griots Spray on Wax Weekly...

My normal remedy is this which is done every 3 monts...
1. Wash with dish whasing liquid
2. clay bar (griots with Speed shine)
3. Wash again with regular car wash
4. Machine Polish 4 (griots) with red applicator pad using PC (if needed)
5. Zaino ZFX with Z2 3 coats
6. P21S

i used to do this very 3 months but now i have extended it to 6 months and i use griots Spray on Wax weekly.

Simply wash the car while wet spray down the spray on wax and wipe dry using a microfiber towell

the Speed wax brightens up the pain and keeps every thing silky smooth.
