Greased Lightning Showroom Shine

18 January 2014 by Eileen

Some of you might know that I love cleaning and those who had came to my house would have know that my house is immaculate.  I am not joking.  I can’t stand any dirt!  My husband have to hover the sink to eat his snacks and my children have to use a bowl to contain any crumbs.

I also clean my car at least once a month inside out.  I hate to wash my car during winter time.  Not only it is cold outside, the outside tap water is freezing and it take longer time to clean the car properly as it is flirty.

Showroom Shine Waterless Car Wax & Polish

I am so pleased to learn about this Showroom Shine Waterless Car Wax & Polish product from Greased Lightning.  Greased Lightning specialise in innovative cleaning products for motor vehicles that make cleaning a breeze.  This product gives great results and cuts the cleaning time of a car in half – which means parents can spend more time with their family and less time out in the cold weather cleaning!  This product is innovative in that there is no need to use water at all! So no more buckets or hoses required.

I received a one litre bottle of Showroom Shine plus two microfibre cloths.  This big bottle is enough for 8 to 10 average sized family cars which appears to be pretty accurate.  I have used about 2 cm of the solution and it should last for another seven or so washes. My car is a Honda Jazz which is a small hatchback car.

Showroom Shine Waterless Car Wax & Polish Before & After

The spray is very easy to insert and use. After spraying onto the bodywork, I used the Blue microfibre cloth to clean around it. It gives milky colour smears on the bodywork.  Next, I used the yellow microfibre cloth to buff to a shine.  It was so easy to clean and I really impressed with the outcome!  My car is spotlessly clean and shiny. I can even see myself in it!  There is no more water marks from now on. Also it only took me 25 minutes (including taking plenty of photos too) to clean the whole car except the roof!

After this experience, I have a few tips to share with you while using this product:

  1. Clean the car when it is less windy as the spray will go everywhere including onto yourself when the wind blows.
  2. Try not to get the spray onto the window.  If you do, try to clean it off properly otherwise when your window screen wipes wipe it, it will smear the screen.
  3. Use only DRY microfibre cloths.  There is no need to use water at all.
  4. Brush off any fine grit on the bodywork before you start to clean.

I do find washing the dirty microfibre hard work though.  It is not easy to rinse off the wax from the microfibre cloth.

Having said that, I would highly recommend the product to anyone though because it is so easy to use, cuts down cleaning time and it provides fantastic results with no more water marks.  To get this kit costs only £17.99 which means it only costs than £1.80 for a car cleaning, assuming 10 cleans per bottle. Bargain!

Disclosure: We received the sample for the purposes of writing this review, however, all thoughts and opinions remain our own.

    Blimey, I’ll have to look for this. It’s such a pain where I live, the tap is nowhere near to where I have to park my car, so weashing the car often gets left. Sounds ideal
