Im sick of using my stinky old chamois thing.. Had it ages and its sooo slow to go around the barge to dry it. As "summer" is upon us im looking at getting some new cleaning bits.
have heard good things about the Meguires water magnet. anyone got recommendations?
I still have a bottle of Gold Class wax but its a bit old and might need replacing. Do they still do it ? Or what is a better (not silly expensive) wax ?
Thanks everyone

DO NOT GET A WATER MAGNET! They're good for the first use, then get all scratchy.
If you want a waffle weave towel, look at Dri-u-Kwik or Sonus de Wondur towels.
I personally use Miracle Drier towels - huge yellow microfibres with black seams - most people would call them bath towels, but they're probably hand towels for you 
Check out Elite Car Care, Clean Your Car, i4detailing etc.
Gold Class wax is ok for the money, but consider Collinite 476s or something along those lines for price, looks & durability all in one.

Most the normal shops haven't really caught on to all this yet, and if they have, it's hugely overpriced.
That said, Elite Car Care is Maidenhead, and iirc you can walk in and buy things from them now they've moved unit.
But yes online / eBay are the places to shop.
