When it comes down to my pride and joy, ive always fallen into the category that seems to spend longer cleaning, and preparing my car than actually using it for what its intended, enjoying driving it. A bit sad really when you think about it, i get paranoid by the slightest marks and even after a drive it must be cleaned before being put away, weather permitting. Maybe i have that compulsive disorder 
So when it comes to cleaning ive tried a number of products, from autoglym to meguiars to P21S to pinnacle etc etc etc you get the picture
A few weeks ago i meet up with an old school friend, whos returned from the states and now works for Bently in the paint dept, knowing my fascination for the above he recommended i tried Mothers products, He'd been involved with several showcar winners vehicles over in America the vast majority who used Mothers and told me i ought to try them.
What the hell, ill just add to my collection in the garage i thought.
Over the weekend ive tried several products the clay bar, sealer and glaze and the carnauba wax paste and the convertible treatment and plastic cleaner.
The results really surpassed my expectations, the plastic cleaner on the soft top window was brilliant so much better than the renovo products id tried before, the paint work finish was great too, it still remains to be seen how long the wax coating will last tho.
Has anyone else out there used any other of their range, id be interested to here your views.
If interested i found alot of the products here www.maxx-waxx.com and to my surprise the website is fronted with a cool sagaris pic

Hi, good to see others agree, ill have to try some other products and let you know how i get on.
I also looked at the motherswax uk website and performance motorcare but the www.maxx-waxx.com prices beat the lot they are some 10 to 30% cheaper on all the products i looked at.
The Sagaris pic helped too

Ive been speaking to the Guy who runs www.maxx-waxx.com today, i didnt realise he was a pistoheads member, apparantly posts on the Tamora T350 Sag forum and is a T350 owner.
Spoke to him at length and he was extremely helpful.
Only too glad to support another PH and tvr owner.
Next purchase is the Mothers Reflections Advanced car wax and Top coat
Cheers

Hi
ive tried the carbon wax before at 40 quid a tub, and the results are just as good to the naked eye, ease of application is about the same. So twice as expensive and half as much product.
The zymol does last a long time, only time will tell with the Mothers but heard good reports
Will keep posted on this.

Andy,
i found the service great too (altho not hand delivered )had a long chat with Nick on the phone and he was more than helpful.
Just looking forward to some better weather now, im sure i'll be back for some more goodies.
i had a look on the US mothers website forum and they seem to like the advanced topcoat over the pure carnauba wax apparently gives a brilliant slickness
I must start driving !

Told these Mothers products were good, i know my mate who works for Bently certainly knows his stuff.
Ive just layered my finish with the Mothers Top coat as recommended and if possible the gloss and depth is even better, dont want to get it dirty now though
Just heard the weathers not going to be so good this weekend, oh well i'll have to try and get some of those house jobs done instead, i was going to tackle the interior this weekend, nevermind keep the wife happy!!!

The tin of wax barely looks like I have touched it, so looking good for many more applications.
That tin of wax will last about 10 years even with liberal use!
Seriously tho try the Reflections topcoat as a layer on top, it works for my silver so on black it would look dripping wet
