This message is for those of us who can't spend wads on polish.
I picked up the MB paint cleaner and MB Shampoo, just out of interest. The paint cleaner is pretty average, ie I can't tell any difference form any other that I've used.
The shampoo, on the other hand, is fab. Just two washes later and I'm convinced the car is darker and shinier. I've used Mequiars for ages, and the MB stuff is made by Meguiars, but is not their usual offering. It's blue and smell nice.
It claims to promote sheeting to aid drying, and it does seem to achieve this. Just rinse it off with a plain hose (no sprinker / spray attachments) then dry with a bathtowel and hey presto - v. shiny car. I didn' t even need my Hydra-blade drying thingy.
I wash my car twice a week, and wax it every month, so it's normally in good shape, but it definitely looks better for the MB shampoo, which is not bad at about £6 a bottle.
Even my Dad commented yesterday that the car was shinier than normal. (He's just received his 2004 ML270, which he ordered after one ride in the passenger seat of my 202.)
