Hi david welcome to the club. I clean mine with autoglym for everything. I know it is dearer but i have used it on all my cars.I also live in norwich, tuckswood. if you need any help i will try and help, i dont know a great deal but the members on here are brilliant.

Hi David

I have moved this to the valeting forum for better coverage ;)

Leather: If it is in need of clean vanish bar (search for thread in valeting section on here) Follow by Gliptone conditioner.

Body: I favour autoglym SRP followed by autoglym EGP as a relatively easy to apply with good results.

Congrats on the colour choice BTW (recently got my other half a Copperleaf Red with Sandstone interior, makes me quite jealous at times)

Clean leather with a vanish bar, keep it clean with Glyptone products, or a leather sealant.

Autoglym is OK, but not all that great, it doesn't last especially well, its a bit 'Halfords'.. The best products to use depend on the colour of the car and how much effort you want to put in!
