ordering that on friday  , can anyone reccomend a descent car shampoo that i can put in a hose adapter foam bottle ?
plus am i using the right stuff to wash and dry my car i use the to bucket method with one of them wool mitts from the pound shop ( white with like a shagg pile on one side) then using 3 microfibres to dry .
plus is it safe for me to use micro fibe cloths to remove the resin polish ? as i baught polishing cloths from halfords but read that they inflict more scratches???
