Cheap Tyre Shine??
Was watching old Kim & Aggie on "How clean is your house" on more 4 yesterday, they use so many things you wouldn't think of using like news paper for shining windows.
Just wondering if anyone knows of a house hold product that shines tyres up?
Although looking in my cupboard I don't think a wagon wheel would work - need to go shopping today me thinks...
btw - I'm not a tight arse I got made redundant nearly 2 months ago & the girlfriend would kill me if I "wasted" money on the more expensive stuff.
Thanks
