Does anyone know of any good suppliers of car cleaning stuff?

Ideally I'm after the complete pack of cleanser, polish, wax, cloths etc in one bumper box, with the appropriate bundle discount but I'm struggling to find any online suppliers and Halfrauds are a touch of the extortionate side.

Depends what you want to spend. I'd suggest have a look at some of the vendors on somewhere like Detailingworld as they tend to do offers and kits and suchlike.

Auto Glym, or Meguiars!

They're excellent products!

With the Meguiars you can buy a big tub of it with various cleaning pruducts for about £30, AND IT'S DEFFINATELY WORTH IT!

I use all Zymol products but it's bloody expensive and hard work. It does give a great finish and the wax lasts for ages both on the car and in the tub, just as well considering the price. Bought some Zymol Concours £140 a tub, very nice and smells lovely. Zymol also do complete starter kits but again it's not cheap.

Yes black. I bought a black grill for my car and it makes the rest look very faded

zymol car wash is excellent. After using the zymol car wash, the car looks waxed- its that good. Zymol wax is excellent as well. When used with autoglymn super resin polish, things look very good indeed imo. Zymol smells so good that every time i use it, i secretly want to eat some. there my favourites and work really well.

Is your site ok, home page says "Perfect Detail is currently undergoing maintenance. Please try later. "

There is only 10p difference between your site and www.valet-store.co.uk but I would rather put my money in the hands of a PHer rather than an unknown company

Another vote for Zymol stuff.. I was an Autoglym user, which is still very good. But I prefer Zymol wax now. Goes on easy, comes off easily too without too much effort, and works brilliantly. Seems to last ages on the car too.
Not much experience with Meguires stuff here mind, except for the claybar treatment. Which I thought was good, but a bit over rated in my opinion.

Oh yes, the Zymol wax does smell good enough to eat. Strangely enough.. But i've not actually tried to eat it.. Honest!
