:-D :-D I just LOVE the fact that any car cleaning queries are directed towards "Mr. Shiny" these days, rather than the non car washing Infidels at large :-b :-D :-D

Anyway - to answer your question :)

The best way to get Meguiar's stuff is online, at www.meguiars.co.uk.
They seem to charge the suggested retail price, and I haven't yet seen anyone undercut them. They'll deliver all over the UK too.

Now, if you look at this link, you should find all the information about polish and polishing your car...

As for leather... Cold, soap free, plain old tapwater and a sponge is the best starting point. Don't be tempted to use carwash solution :stare: , fairy liquid :gun2: or a bar of soap :furious3: ... They'll dry out the leather, and then you've got the fun of trying to stop it from cracking :sick: ...

For stains that won't shift using the above, then dedicated leather cleaning solutions are available. Meguiar's do three leather cleaners - The first two are designed to be used in tandem and are best if you've got really badly ingrained dirt and muck in your seats. They are called "Gold Class Rich Leather Aloe Cleaner" and "Gold Class Rich Leather Aloe Conditioner".

There's also the third product, called "Gold Class Leather Cleaner". This is a one-step product that performs both the cleaning and conditioning steps in one application. Obviously, because it's a blend, it's not as effective as the two-step products, but it saves on elbow grease!

Auto Glym is what I use and I find it pretty good.. however since the winter and grotty weather I find the rain does an excellent job anyway.
