Default Show cleaning products

Evening all,

After attending the Bromley Pagent the other week with some of you, I noticed people using cleaning products to get rid of the dirt they'd picked up on route. What do people use please?

I hate using them at shows as you're very likely to add swirls, I do use them as a drying aid though.

Yeah that's what concerns me mate. Just want something to take off the worst of it like splattered bugs that have been eating lots of blackberries. Show up on a white car

I use this as a pre-clean diluted into another spray bottle :http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/detail.../prod_737.html
Because it dilutes 500ml lasts forever.

Then for a 2nd pass I use : http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/index....&productId=662

Although at the moment I use meguiars as Halfords had a deal 3 for 2.

That's a good idea, I'll go with that I think. Thank you

I'm a big fan of the poor boys QD+ it tops up the carnuba in the Nattys paste wax as well!
