Simoniz Quickshine Detailer

Best price: £6.49 Size: 500ml

Minimal instructions do this detailer from Simoniz’s new-look car care line-up no favours. It claims to be a wax and a polish, although we saw no sign of the latter working on the clear coat. There was no indication of its cleaning abilities, but they were certainly present, with the formula wetting easily, allowing light grime to be removed. It also beaded effectively, if not as rapidly as the best, and it was still performing better than untreated areas after a week.
