Argos are doing a deal on a Challenge Electronic Polisher. Its a 6inch wheel and is small enough to get around the nooks on a bike.

I've just picked mine up today, and i haven't used it, but the quality seems good. i've had other Challenge tools before and they've been okay. Still, for £7.99 its a bargain, and comes with applicator and buffer.

2m cable. This is what wrong with the world. A cable that long is no good for man nor beast. Sure you;ll have a shiney finish, You'll be dragging your extension /socket thing around the back garden like a yapping dog.

Exactly, or possibly better, 8 quid would get a new set of plugs if you go to the right place. That'l sure make your bike feel better than some shiny parts too.

Cheers

lol, its £8. Just do what i did, and just extend the cable by nicking some from an old extension lead.

It works really well for something so cheap. My only whinge is some of the fluff comes off of the buffer. But this might be "new towel syndrome" and stop after a few uses.
