I tend to stick with Meguiars products. ie gel, wax polish. I wax my car about once a month.
Whats a clay bar do?

It's just a pity that some of their techniques are outdated. Limiting yourself to one brand of products is not a good idea imho. Autosmart's product range is among the best in the world for bulk brands The ones I use are : Glass Glow 5 litre (dustless glass polish) Leather Protectant G101 Multi Purpose cleaner Mirror Image & Platinum polish Most of the products are not up to autopian standards but for bulk products, they are excellent. The guy you refered to would of been Derek Tubb, the SA distributor for Autosmart.

Just went down to AutoBarn and bought one of the Bowdens Own Premium Buckets, cost me $159 (20% off sale, normally $199) spoke to the guy there for ages, used to be an auto detailer, and there was an XR club member down there buying some.... gonna give my baby a good going over tomorrow, will let u know how it turns out.

well i just spent 4 hrs fully detailing the mustang for tomorrow
i washed then buffed with 3m cutting compound on a black sponge pad , then washed and used wet look from eagle 1 to remove all the resadue from cuttn compound, then i washed all the dust off and used wax as u dry from eagle 1 , the car looks brand new. and the paint is now 9 yrs old and is a candy apple red with gold fleck and pearl so it should have faded by now but it shines like it was done yesterday.

A Mothers woman myself, lurve the smell of Canuba Wax.
I wash the car once a fornight, do a stage 2 and 3 wax every 2 months, all this and I can't even drive, but hey nothing but nothing beats the looks of our Silver AUII XR8 when it is washed, waxed and hand polished, it just kinda sits there and glows...and I sit there and purr looking at it.....and it's all for love or so I am told...  : : :
