Other than the one beginning with H - which I'd rather not set foot in...

Preferably in the Gloucestershire/Bristol area.

Thanks!

Unlike others Tangoman knows what he's doing and can recommend alsorts of products for your needs.

For example i want the best shine etc for my silverstone and products, Lee recommended me things and sent them promptly at a good price.

Oh and your not a member so you wont get a discount, maybe time to help out the community for the help your recieved in the past and get discounts too? Its only 10quid or whatever it is.

Happy to join and happy to buy off Tango.

I was reading his "ask about detailing" thread earlier.... So much to do and learn!

I was hoping to get a few things this weekend to practice on my other car!

You've got to be a member ie NOT guest.

Hence paying for membership, just like you and I did.

Buy a Meguiars 'clay bar kit' from eBay.

It'll give you a glass like finish and you can then add whatever polish you like.

The kit I bought for the beater was about

If you want to buy in shop then the best bet is usually Halfords, an alternative to that would be one of the independent motor shops. Your choice will be limited by these though and advice is a little hit or miss. If you need advice Woojah please feel free to ask on my ask Tango thread, it is big and stuff does repeat but I am more than happy to go over things again for anyone specific.

Guys thanks for the support, it is appreciated. I do not discriminate between Guests and Members though as far as products are concerned, I am more than happy to support anyone on the S2k community.
