We bought our 2005 van two years ago, it’s in fab condition always serviced Etc, the only thing are the dull side panels which are alutech.

I have washed with Fenwicks, bought auto glym super resin, polished and polished but the panels still look patchy in places and dull, no overall shine.
Either end is fibreglass that’s come up a treat.

Maybe in its past life someone took an aggressive cleaner to it, does anyone have ideas on how to revive the shine?

The waterless cleaner is not a patch on Autoglym I'm afraid.

XVI yes?

As well is two words!
How does a sage know everything about everything? or does he? or does he just think he does?
Remember, if you buy something you bought it, not brought it.

Thanks for the link Bob, I had not seen it. Quite depressing.

Auto Glym Gets such great reviews and at £17 for the larger bottle I had high hopes!
I’ll follow the thread and see if anyone used the greased lightning products.
