Will do!

Need to get a new drying towel. Hand sized microfibre towels are a bit of pain!

Will also be buying some SRP and wax at the end of the month, ready for the better weather to hit us :)

Washed the Ibiza at the weekend. The paint is in dire need of correction, but under natural light it looks OK.

Yeh I have already spotted the wooly mammoth. And read a lot of reviews that it can take a lot of water :). Only negative is that I hear it takes forever to dry after it's soaked up all the water from the car...

I just put it in the washing machine and set to spin dry. Then hang it up for a little bit, will be all fluffy, soft and dry after that. :D
 
Just ordered:
Dodo Juice Diamond White
Sonus Ultra Fine Clay

Hopefully the clay will be a bit better my last which was just too hard to work with :)

I've got a couple of questions that go along with my new car:

1) It has swirl marks on the windows! Very fine circular scratching on all of the glass. What would get rid of this best? I've never seen it on a car before and didn't notice it at first but it's annoying at night.

2) What's the best leather feeder/conditioner/cleaner? The leathers in this car are in pretty lovely condition for its age and I'd like to keep them that way. I don't mind spending a bit of money as long as it'll last a long time, but obviously cheaper's better.

Thanks :)

Any advice on either of these?
 
Been given a bottle of "Showroom shine" which is a no water cleaning solution but everything about it screams "do not use" to me.

Has anyone had any experience with it?

Is it that Demon Shine stuff? Not used it but it always seems to be in the clearance section at Halfords, I just think "AVOID".
