@Rohit, As I mentioned, please use Tyre Foam for tyres. I have not seen any other solution for tyres. Please use the F1 wax what you bought. It's very simple. Just apply in small amount with the sponge. It is just like applying fairness cream on the face and then wipe it off once it becomes hazy white (10 minutes). May be you can try Waxpol or Turtle wax sites for any pictorial guide. But the procedure is very simple.

@Pankaj, What your service station used may be a vinyl polish/cleaner. It can't be wax as it is sticiky (like grease)

Rohit, I also bought one vacuum cleaner from Big Bazaar for Rs. 199/- It worked first time afterwards It didn't suck out anything. So I will say, avoid the cheaper ones. Now I clean the floor carpets with tooth brush and usual collecting tray. Some good exercise atlast.

Rohit, I said avoid the cheaper ones (unbranded like I bought). If you get a branded ones (like Eureka Forbes) even at slightly high price, please go for it.

@ Venugopalan, I stand corrected.  It's not wax.  Actually, though I didn't mean wax, I did sound so.  I just checked it's Waxpol - Vinyl & Leather Polish.

@ Rohit, I reiterate, we actually don't need a vaccum cleaner for the reasons explained before at post #8.

It is leather & plastic polish.  It cleans & gives a shiny look.  It is being used in my car by the service station.  The results are good.
