Extreme Clean

Price: £9.98 (five litres) Contact: B&Q, 0845 609 6688, www.diy.com

Another sourced from B&Q, this wash and wax concentrate claims to give a “forecourt finish” and the “ultimate shine”. We failed to see much sign of either in our test, but this pack does go a long way, as it makes up 100 litres. No surprise, then, to see little in the way of foaming, but what there was clung on well and it did make progress on shifting the dirt.

Zip-merging is fairer, faster and recommended by all the experts. So why do UK drivers refuse to do it?

Steve Walker is completely flummoxed as to why UK drivers can’t get their heads around this simple principle.
