The first is washing, which is done with purified water, a rare organic shampoo and super-soft natural sea sponge. The bodywork is then dried using various hi-tech cloths of varying grades, before contaminants are removed with special clay which looks a bit like Plasticine. All this is a full day's work for Dalton.

:omg: he uses a sponge!

Anything to do with the fact they have written the first paragraph twice?

in here????

"Most polishes are very aggressive, and while they can remove scratches fast, they effectively replace these with a lot of smaller ones which show up as swirls in direct sunlight. I use a gentle polish in order to get the paint to reflect light like a mirror. The only drawback is that it is very labour-intensive to apply"

Well spotted but that wasn't it - but I now see it's been corrected.

3rd para where it says Buckinghamshire - it read Buckingham****e - that was the mistake!

I used to live around the corner from MCUK - it was in the midst of an inductrial estate, which in turn was in the midst of a housing estate. Took some photos through the windows, which I think I posted up here - an unbelievable array of Lambos, Fezzas and the like. Literally 10s of millions of £worth of cars.

i presume everyone knows that Paul Dalton (miracle detail) has broken off his relationship with zymol and is no longer approved. They treid to charge him their £6k membership fee (he previously had it for free) so he told them to stuff it basically.

Good for him i say.
