Sounds like the guy was a bit of a muppet! lol

What you've go there mate is a quality list of all the stuff you'd need to get your car looking spotless.

Only trouble is unless its Meguiars or Autoglym you'll be hard to pushed to find it in a shop.

www.cleanyourcar.co.uk is the place I always go too. Stick and order in and it'll be here for the weekend.
Not that the weather will be! lol

Only thing to make sure of with any shampoo is to not use too much.

What you'll find is that if you put a massive dolop in the bucket, it could well just strip the wax away that its got applied to the paint.

Just a good rinse and then a small bit of shampoo in the bucket should do you. :)
