Can someone recommend a good shampoo/wax?
Autoglym for both. I wouldn't use anything else. Expensive but worth it - shop around for best prices. (3/00)

I second this, I use nearly all the autoglym products while cleaning my car. They are excelent (must be as used by Jag and Aston Martin)

Shampoo Conditioner for washing
Super Resin Polish for polish
Extra Gloss Protection - for going to shows etc :)

Take a look at http://www.autoglym.co.uk (3/00)

Sorry beg to differ! On the best 5 colour you can have - Black, I find Colour Magic gives a better finish, less smeary! (3/00)
My latest discovery is Mer Car Shampoo. Not the polish which can double up as a wash, but a specific car shampoo. Put this on the car the other day, and didn't think much of it, until I rinsed the car and the water just ran off immediately and left the car looking very shiny indeed. Also has a rain-x effect on the windows, although it doesn't last as long as Rain-x itself. (3/00)
I wax my '5 with Meguires yellow wax - it is absolutely stunning. I also use AutoGlym polish but the Meguires......fantastic! (3/00)
