    See that was my impression of the Autosmart Actimousse that it was more a stronger TFR. Although I suppose if it still beads like mad after use there must be the wax etc left on the car. For doing your Van like you say its would be spot on being stronger.

    End of the day I’m happy with the Foam I use as it takes off what I consider acceptable and when I go over it with my Mitt the car is spot on. Proof is in the pudding that my black roof is still not to bad for swirls at all. The only disappointment is my Alloys have shown some small erosion around the valves and I would have loved to have protected them each year, but still the car is over five years old and not garaged.
    Mini as it was. As it is. As it always will be. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, it's up to you to decide if it counts!

    Just gave the snow foam a trial run on the X5. Gotta say I'm impressed. It's looking pretty clean despite the fact the mank has had a fair few months to bake on there. Even got a really good deal on the lance on detailing world. All in all a happy camper.
