Mantis Instant Shine is a little different from ordinary car cleaners. It doesn’t require water and actually has more in common with a quick detailing spray: all you need is two mircofibre cloths – one to lift and remove dirt and another to buff your car’s bodywork. It’s simple, but effective.

Obviously, it isn’t intended to be an alternative to the old bucket and sponge approach, but where Mantis Shine comes into its own is for car shows. Say you’ve driven 40-50 miles to get to your location and your pride and joy isn’t gleaming enough following its trip. You can use Mantis Shine to return your classic very quickly to its just-cleaned state.

It’s suitable for use on all surfaces (even plastics and chrome), but it’s best to keep it away from your windscreen due to its glossy finish.
Mantis Instant Shine is available through a number of retailers, including major supermarkets and motor  factors – expect to pay £9.99.
