Nice collection, Just need a good quality wax to top it all off now Wink

I bought a decent sized holdall to keep all my stuff in - few cardboard dividers to keep it all upright and your sorted. Better than the overpriced AG and Megs bags !!

clay bars pick up all the tiny (read: microscopic) fleks of dirt/tar/dust that aren't removed by washing or polishing the car. it's a process that is very time consuming and only done by losers who need to learn to drive their cars more than clean them. save your money and spend it on beer instead.

well actually it takes, tar off, bird poo, road grime and all other contaminants that make a "polished" car look like the paint has been polished with wire wool. and yes i can drive my car. ain't seen a quicker seat altea around have you? Wink Razz

ps: vpolo, same on clubpolo? can give you a day's lessons if you like, only near talacre.... Smile

You've got clay too? What sonus is that? When are you claying? You might want to wait a bit till its warmer and you can have more day light as its a big job!

Edit: Unless you have garage!
