Five Simoniz car care products that we reviewed

To add a little consumer advice and help for you, we thought we’d review some car cleaning products.  If you love your car/s then you love them being clean.

This week we focused on a range of products by Simoniz.  We wanted to focus our attention on five products which are key aspects of any car clean, namely:

Wash – Simoniz Shampoo & Carnauba Wax (retails at £4-6)
Wax & Polish –  Simoniz Quickshine Detailer (retails at circa £4-7)
Wheel – Simoniz Ultracare Alloy Cleaner (retails at circa £5)
Tyre – Simoniz Back to Black Tyre Shine (retails at circa £5-7)
Dashboard – Simoniz Gloss Dash Shine (retails at circa £4-6)

We wanted to test these products on a car that we are looking to sell, an Mazda MX5.  Top tip: If you are looking to sell a car, make sure you clean it as good as you can.  It makes all the difference when trying to sell it.

To give you a perspective on the products tested we are featuring a before and after video, so you have a good idea, and our thoughts.  The car we are cleaning today is the legendary Mazda MX5.  Perfect for cleaning as it’s nice and small.

The verdict

The Wash

Using Simoniz Shampoo & Carnauba Wax

It did an okay job.  It’s hard to tell with a shampoo I think.  They are all a much of a muchness.  We give this product a 5/10.

The Wax & Polish

Simoniz Quick shine Detailer

Easy to apply, removes minor scuffs and tar, leaves the car with a nice gloss/ shine and is very easy to use/ apply.  We give this product a 10/10

The Wheels

Simoniz Ultracare Alloy Cleaner

Easy to apply.  Seemed to get more dirt off the alloys.  It does what I says.   We give this product a 7/10.

The Tyres

Simoniz Back to Black Tyre Shine

This product does what it says on the tin. Only thing I’d like to see moving forwards is a non-aerosol option.  Does it really need to be in an aerosol can Simoniz?  We give this product a 9/10, but if in recyclable packaging 10/10.

The Dashboard

Simoniz Gloss Dash Shine

Again this product does what it says on the tin. Only thing I’d like to see moving forwards is a non-aerosol option.  Does it really need to be in an aerosol can Simoniz?  We give this product a 9/10, but if in recyclable packaging 10/10.

All in all, I liked the Simoniz products, they did a good job, so they get a big thumbs up from me.
