Default What polish/Cleaning products do you use?

There are so many to choose from, what one(s) do you use then?

I prefer Autoglym car shampoo and Meguiars Synthetic car polish. Both go on really easily and give a nice deep shine to the car. (I still end up with streaky windows though when I use the wipers!)

The NXT tech wax is the one I was using. It goes on really easily and leaves a deep shine.

I thought the clay bars were a gimmick, perhaps I should check them out.

www.polishedbliss.co.uk and ask them what they advise for the colour of car you have. They have done extensive testing and know what goes best with what car.
