Picked up a Chimaera at the weekend after getting off a plane at 06:30 in the morning. Tired and nervous drove it back to London from Ipswich in the rain. Following a convoy of modified German plated VW's and Audi's.

Anyway my new baby is sitting under shnozz's old car cover (fits like a glove cheers shnozz and good luck with the garage) at the moment. Need to clean the beast this weekend and remember a thread on this a while back. Can anyone recommend any cleaning products/materials for glass bodywork and wheels so I can get her gleaming again.

Cheers

Meguiar's Clear Coat Body Scrub followed by Yellow Carnauba #26 does it for me. If the surface is a bit iffy use Autoglym Polish first then the Carnauba Wax.
Forgot to add M's clear plastic cleaner is excellent for reconditioning the rear plastic window to get rid of the white haze

Its a fair cop guvnor. Though I can't remember me or shnozz agreeing anything. I'll buy you a pint at a meeting sometime.
