try it out if its on offer, there was this one place selling for £8 as apposed to the £11 rrp. not bad for a summer detail or to spruce up at shows since you can use it on bumpers etc, i still dont know what it is though as its pretty oily.

I dont understand the "Speed of ICE" statement they make on the advert as ICE doesn't move as its frozen!?
I was wondering if anyone had any pictures of the results of this stuff?
I use poorboys polish and paste wax and am very happy with the results especially as each product is normally no more than £15.

a guy i know used this on his audi a4, and although usually anybody who was in the know would say stay away from brands like turtle wax etc, i was quite impressed and thought it did a pretty decent job! im sure there is better stuff out there but for a beginner it is very very easy to use and doesnt take too long so probably worth a try for any non hardcore detailers haha
