    Has anybody got any advice on which meathod is best the traditional wet wash. or the or the newer Waterless meathods, for an internal valet. The Waterless will mean a dry car straight away but is it any good.
    Has anybody used this meathod???

    What do ye be up to in the cars?

    Never valeted mine in 160k miles. Just hoovered it and cleaned the interior the odd time with a damp rag and a bucket of suds. Always looked spotless.

    I find Meguiars products far superior than anything else for cleaning/polishing & waxing your car.

    Aren't they the viciously expensive ones that they use in concours etc?

    This is a car I'm thinking of buying from a smoker. Just hoping a good Valet will sort it out. but your right a quick clen every few weeks is the best job

    Anyone used this waterless valet stuff?

    From a bit of cursory web research, I'm a tad skeptical as it seems to link in with "get rich quick" style packages on that bastion of the noble businessman, eBay.
