Not yet mate but I've just purchased from them the 30ml Lavish wax along with a 30ml show wax & a bottle of quick detail 

 

 

[Dogtanian1234]

Product: Collinite 845 Insulator Wax

Reason: Easy to apply and can even apply to glass and plastic trim without leaving any marks.

 

Product: 3M Clay bar

Reason: Best clay bar I have used, takes off tar and bugs with ease.

 

Product: Autoglym Super Resin Polish

Reason: Easy to apply and buff off and the shine is brilliant

 

Product: Wurth Active Glass Cleaner

Reason: Spays on as a foam and doesn’t leave any streaks or residue  

[Ally_bassman]

Product: G2 Clay mit

Reason: Makes claying an already well treated car a doddle, a car with extra contaminated paint may need the old school clay bar.

 

Product: Meg's tyre dressing applicator

Reason: super easy to apply your chosen tyre shine, no mess, no fuss.

[samuir1974]

Product:  HOSE-EEZ tyre jam eliminator

Reason:  Simple little widget to  avoid the hose getting trapped as you walk around the car.

 

 

I purchased from these guys.... 2-pack and 4-pack avaialble....

 Octavia MKII  Vrs Colours

poor boys - white diamond polish

whilst this is not a true polish in the diminishing abrasive compound sense, and has fillers it still does a very impressive job by hand at making your paint look good. got some nice reflections in the paint last night - even got my golf in shot too

Gtechniq I2ab Triclean. 

Great for cleaning and anti bacterial wiping of all interior surfaces. 

Especially doors where there can be various substrates on one panel from.

Picked up a few £2 large microfibre cloths from wilko

I was impressed, theyre good at drying the car, work as well as my autofinesse deluxe towel 

Highly recommended as a first drying towel or large microfibre

For £2 you cant go wrong, if they get dirty or contaminated they wont be a shame to let go

[BATVANVRS]

Product: Jayswax ceramic wax (50ml)

Reason: Used for the first time on Saturday & boy o boy what a fantastic wax to use, easy to apply & even easier to buff off, no effort required, used a orange Korean 400gsm to remove, definitely a wax in my top 3, great gloss depth n shine, now just waiting for some good amount of rain to check the beading, there was a little amount of rain today on my car & the bonnet did bead nicely, nice formed beads but want more rain to take a proper picture.

 

I'm seriously thinking to only keep this wax & another 2 different brands in my collection & sell off my other waxes in-turn to purchase a 200ml version of the Jayswax ceramic wax 

 

EDIT: That's not my picture, it's just to show the product.

 

You can buy it from here

http://www.jayswax.co.uk/product/jayswax-sio2-ceramic-wax-50ml-pot/

but check ebay for bidding wars to win one of these fantastic waxes at a great price.

[BriskodaJeff]

Product: Soft99 Fusso Dark. http://nipponshine.com/shop/body-sealant/879/

Reason: the closest thing I've come to a self-apply ceramic sealant for amateurs like me. Apply thinly, wait 10-15 minutes and remove. Fantastic shine and beading, and great longevity so far.

 

Product: Poorboys Black Hole Glaze. I got mine here http://www.polishedbliss.co.uk/acatalog/poorboys-black-hole-glaze.html but it's available from many other places.

Reason: incredible masking of swirls and small scratches on my quartz grey car. Easy on, easy off and the results are transformational.

Agreed, purchased some and only used it as a test on the bonnet so far, but its been 2 months and theres still a healthy amount of beading (even with one coat).  The suggested usage, is one coat, wait 24hrs and then re-coat.

 

I REALLY need to clay the car and use some SRP (or some Soft 99 420 wax/polish combo which I accidently bought when wanting the Fusso Coat - nipponshine were very good in saying that instead of sending it back, they'd knock 50% off so I could keep it!).  I might wait until I've bought a DA though (my birthday next week  )

I’ve tried out new formula Gtechniq Exo v4 a few weeks ago, recently I had the car back for a maintenance detail. Its an amazing product! The beading abilities are crazy. So easy to wash after application I just hope that it’s a genuine 18-24 month coating. Here’s a pic.

Likewise - grabbed a bottle of EXOv4 in the recent launch offer.

 

Not done the whole car as yet - but fitted new mirror caps & coated!

 

Superb water behaviour and makes it easy to wipe off the bugs as well.

Very easy to use and overall a very impressive product.

+1 for Fusso, however if you have a dark coloured car get the King Of gloss. here's mine after having it added and getting caught in the rain.

Product: Chilly Bottle

 

Reason: This 1 and 3/4 pint bottle will hold and keep warm (by which I mean literally the same temperature as you put it in) 4 cups of tea for 12 hours! Not sure about anyone else, but I lose a fair chunk of time making myself a cuppa 😊 This bottle will also keep it as cold as you put it in for about the same time.
