<\/a><\/p>\nWhen the UK importers of Nu Finish \u2013 The Once A Year Car Polish asked me if I\u2019d like to try the product out, I must confess to fearing the Doc Holliday was in town. However, I\u2019ll always give a car care product the benefit of the doubt until I\u2019ve tried it.<\/p>\n
As it happens, Nu Finish turned up at the right time. I hate seeing my cars dirty and after almost constant rain in late September my Smart ForFour was in a sorry looking state. So, I put it to the test.<\/p>\n
The makers, Reed-Union Corporation was founded in 1929 and they claim that theirs is the only car polish in the world that doesn\u2019t contain wax, instead it uses amino-functional groups, which I guess means it contains silicone and acts more like a sealant.<\/p>\n
It is certainly easy to apply and remove and the Smart Car is always a tough test for polishes and waxes as it features steel and ABS plastic panels on the body, with areas of black and others of yellow. It can be a real pain to make it look really shiny. It\u2019s caught out plenty of so-called world-beating waxes and compounds.<\/p>\n
The once a year claim is a big one. It doesn\u2019t resist dirt and crud but refers to the fact that every time you wash your car it is supposed to restore its \u2018just applied\u2019 look. Reed-Union reckons that it lasts for up to 52 car washes before re-application is necessary. I\u2019m not sure about that but I have to say it brought the Smart up really well.<\/p>\n The makers say re-apply after 30-days and that completes the application process.<\/p>\n It is a complete miracle? No, to be honest, but it\u2019s definitely no Doc Holliday snake oil either. I\u2019ll definitely keep it on my shelf and will happily use it again, without question. I think if you have a car as I did, that needs a quick restorative polish then this is the idea.<\/p>\n Surprise, surprise, it rained the day after I applied it and I have to say that its hydro-phobic or \u2018beading\u2019 properties are really impressive.<\/p>\n A 500ml bottle costs just \u00a310.99 and is available via www.homgar.com<\/a> ENDS.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
