I just want to say how great the car shampoo is from Autosmart.
(BIG thanks to Sue Jerham and Autosmart!)
It is the Autosmart premium wash and wax and makes your car look like you have polished it without obviously the hard slaving labour!
Definately recomend it!

You say the nicest things - the tenner's in the post!!

Have to say that my home would cease to function without G101. it's especially good on burned pans! Can't say that my car is much of an advert for wash and wax or any other product though. It's always a good challenge for the valeting school.

Hey no problem Sue! I give credit where credit is due!
Thanks again for the bumper bundle of goodies you donated at the Thorpe Park meet.
Do you recommend anything for cleaning alloys? I have previously used wonder wheels but have run out so thought I might try something new.
Thanks again

Thanks Pete

A question though. After using the shampoo the windscreen tends to get a bit smeary when using windscreen wipers. Do you recommend anything to clean the glass? All the glasss cleaners I use do the same thing.
Thanks

At this rate people will think I work for autosmart.

I use autosmart window cleaner with no probs at all,spray on,wipe off

could not be easier,if you already use this then ,sorry,cant help,never had that problem

they do say that vinegar is ment to be ace at glass cleaning,mite be worth a go.

on a diff note,i put rain-x on my cc today,kool or wot10/10 for that

Thanks again Pete ;)

Julia the trick to stop your windows smearing is as soon as you have washed the car rinse it quickly and dry the window right away with a chamoix.

Mel always knows when I have been gassing with the neighbours coz I dont dry her screen quickk enough and the n it smears :(
