100 bloody hell hess
mine was 42.50 in the group but 
main purpose of the gilmour is to loosen grime, spray it on leave it for 5 mins, the foam in that time will carry all the thick dirt down to the bottom of the car reducing scratches, after that spray it all off with water and use it again over the car and use a wash mitt
