Just been on eBay and saw a listing for terraclean at a garage.
It might be of use to those thinking about it and is cheap too.
Item number is 270978324456.

Bushes and brakes
Well I've been a busy boy today, took a trip down South to Poole to visit MRP who was kind enough to help me with a couple more jobs on the car, first up was the polybushing of the wishbones, we started with something like this.....
.....and after a bit of cleaning, swearing and hanging from a vice we ended up with something like this.....
Now when I say the ride home was different I really mean it, for something so small these bushes really do make a difference, the steering felt tighter with a lot more feedback through the steering wheel, if you have not done this mod then I can thoroughly recommend it.
While the wheels were off I though it would be a good time to see to the brakes, so I replaced all 4 discs and fitted new pads, Pagid throughout, along with bleeding the system, again I felt the benefit straight away, no more spongey pedal for me
Now, while the wheels were off, it would have been rude of me not to show my calipers some tlc so they FINALLY got the coat of paint they needed.
Front :
Rears :
I must just say a BIG thank you to Martin, without whom I wouldn't have even started the job, the use of his tools, Father-in-laws drive and experience was invaluable, I had a great day and learnt a lot (and some new words) from someone who is a valued member of this forum and a great mate
Now just time for a few hours sleep.....gotta be at the tyre shop at 0830

Looking great that's what I call a good days work and some,even better when the wheels go on,then it's no curb crawling or it's £50 fine.
