As an emergency short term measure Auto-glym stuff. Available in Helfords, even in larger Tesco's stores.

I would us Meguiars, it is vastly superior to Autoglym for a simialr price. Goto www.meguiars.co.uk or www.cleanand shiney.co.uk. Both provide very fast and reliable delivery.

Cheers

I took the photo for a "piss take" thread some months back. At the time there were *so* many threads titled "Zaino Pics" etc

The "proper" Zymol stuff is avaiable from at least two authorised resellers in the UK. I've used Sportscar World in the past and found their service to be fast. You can have a look at their website at www.scweurope.com

The stuff which Hellfords sell is licensed by Zymol but is not the same as the "proper" stuff, but then you wouldn't expect it to when it's considerably cheaper. That said, it's still good quality stuff and well worth trying to tide you until you get some "proper" Zymol.

BTW, you want the Japon wax. If you can afford it, treat yourself to the Japon starter kit - everything you need to get you going.

Note to Zaino adherents: This is not intended to start yet another "which is better" thread. I mention it simply because henrysj had already said he was interested in getting hold of some Zymol.
