Worth a shot I guessFew times I've forgotten something I've emailed them and they shipped it out for free and I just paid for the goods. Decent customer service.

Fairy liquid seems to be having a comeback round here lol.Fairy liquid diluted is a very cheap lube for claying mate it'll strip any lsp left on the car into the bargain
Only use a drop of fairy mate in say a 500 ml bottle you don't need a lot at all, and claying a car can result in slight marring of paint, but not a problem as the compound will remove it if there is anyFairy liquid seems to be having a comeback round here lol.
Sure Bilt Hamber recommend spraying with water while claying but yours sounds like a good idea so I'll give it a go . Waxed the car a couple of weekend ago so will need to be rid of that for sure

Just a small’ish order from CYC:
Despite having a few woolly mammoth drying towels, I have wanted to try silk dryer for awhile. Whilst on there got a few other goodies
Sounds pretty impressive! I use AF drying towel for the S5 and find it manages to do about 95% of the car and then I use TRG to finish off the small areas and an eagle Edgeless to dry the door jambs and wheels.Well impressed with the Gyeon Silk DryerHave always thought the CG Wooly Mammoth (I have two) were brilliant, but find they get very very heavy and ideally need two to fully dry Q5 (it is a big old thing). Silk dryer dried the whole thing and just one wring out needed. Quality....will definitely get another for the JCW

You really need to get a water filter. Used my new Vyair for the first time on Friday, and it was great to wash the car and let it air dry with zero water marksWell impressed with the Gyeon Silk DryerHave always thought the CG Wooly Mammoth (I have two) were brilliant, but find they get very very heavy and ideally need two to fully dry Q5 (it is a big old thing).

found them: https://www.ebay.co.uk/str/Discount-DetaiIing?_trksid=p2047675.l2563There's a seller on there worth looking at if you don't mind the bay . "Discount Detailing_UK".
Saved nearly £7 on the Gtechniq C5 over the other main detailing sites , plus free postage. Seems to have a whole host of products at a decent saving .

seems to be the cheapest for BSD normally.
£6.76 after the current discount code had been applied.

If your planning on using a machine ? You'll need Bilt Hamber Cleanser fluid if you haven't got it alreadywould be rude not to take @in2detailing up on his kind offer of 10% discount this week.
Nothing really that I need urgently....is that ever the case

Not tried that one mate .. Used Carpro eraser and Gtechniqs panel wipe both ain't as good as the Bilt hamber,the Bilt hamber just seems to go a bit further than the others ie l use less product to remove the same amount of compound residue on a panel but Bilt hamber cleansing fluid is quite expensive for 500mls maybe that's the whyI thought Angelwax Stripped-Ease was removal system would do
