Just had a look at my bottle of Pledge.
It says it's a multi-surface wax, "For laminate, tiles, stone, plastic and other delicate surfaces". Cif is a floor cleaner and might be a little harsh! Unless anyone here knows better, I'd stick with what you know. A 750ml bottle of Pledge costs just a couple of pounds or so and will last you into the next millennium!! :ooops: :tongue:

No I won't use it (well to clean floors maybe.) Will continue my search for the elusive pledge. Where do you guys buy yours from?

Look for this stuff if locally available ! in the UK.
Chris and Alex Modelling have used it with success...
until you get yourself some ALCLAD Aqua Clear Gloss.

but for the money it is worth it.

I posted that picture many times.... for UK modellers but
lots of people including myself is slowly turning towards

ALCLAD AQUA Gloss Clear.
very nice stuff....

but the Future or Astonish Clear wax can fill the bill for most modellers!
and it has many other uses...

Take care and Have a great week end ! :thumb2:

I'll vote for Alclad Aqua Gloss Clear ALC-600. It's the best. Super easy to use and clean up.
