Autoglym Showroom Shine Spray

I bought some of this stuff the other day and all I can say is.....Wow

If you're as mad about keeping you mini clean as I am then try this stuff

It's ideal for giving the car a quick shine without the need for poilshing the whole car - all you do is spary some directly onto the car and then give it a quick wipe over, you can even use it on glass and rubber (handy for when you get overspays)

Anyone else tried it yet?

Yes, the car does have to be clean first. I normally apply it straight after drying the car - although you could probably use on lightly soiled cars. eg road dust, rain marks etc.

Sounds like a quick detailer spray - about time autoglym kept up with meguiars and co!

How was it? you can get the meguiars stuff for about £6.99 and it should do for about 6 MINI's worth and makes the car look and smell great!

I think it costs about £5.99 (Halfords) - I would imagine you could use it more than 6 MINI's worth as you only need to use a little bit to get a decent shine.

Thanks, I didn;t know they made it. I will of course now be heading down to Halfords as soon as possible. I am a sucker for any polish that claims to make the car shine for a long as possible I do use a lot of the Auto Glym products they work for me. Cheers

ChrissieB.

I think only the larger Halfords sell it. Let me know what you think of it.

ChrissieB - this won't be a polish or wax - it is usually a spray cleaner which "boosts" your exisitng wax coating! They usually extend the life of your wax coating though!
