Shame about the hosepipe ban though
I have Autoglym HD Wax and used once on the F25 when new. I dont have any other experience but it was eay enough to apply - you just need a long weekend to find the hours for all the prepping.

Sfax - you are very keen to keep your F25 in top fettle for a lease car? I have to look after mine as it is an asset on my personal P&L

Mine's not leased, part ex + cash + finance, and I'll likely hold onto it for 5 years or more, hence the love

so what are folks in the hosepipe ban zones doing about a cheapish car wash? a bucket is not going to do the trick for a car of this size...... don't really wanna take it through the car wash through...

and don't even get me started on the car wash ppl in the supermarkets...

303 Aerospace Protectant is really good for Plastics, boot liners, boot covers and anything else plastic related.

THe best bit is it doesn't change the colour or create a horrible shiny layer.
