It came from France[!]. It does work but takes some time and you'll probably need a couple of tubes. Have just checked their website www.gs27.com . Its in French [surprise surprise], so over to you....

If you are really OCD throw the leather and brush away as these too will scratch the top coat.

Best process by far is to rinse, pre-wash (best with foam as this draws dirt off the surface) rinse then hand wash with mitts (not sponge) using 2 buckets, one for shampoo, one to rinse the mitt.

To dry use a microfibre cloth and Megs Quick detailer (spray on when wet)

This absolutely reduces the chance of scratching the paint.

BUT - your neighbours will think you're a freak
