Default Wanted - Serpent Cleaning Gum!

Anyone know of a UK model shop selling this 'GUM' stuff?

Its ace and I've run out, seems to be very hard to find anywhere and ideally I wanted to order from within the UK.

Cheers for that!

Bit confused by their website, looks like I need to get in touch with Serpent UK to order.

Griff55 it's really good stuff, as Chris says it picks up all the crap off your car and it’s great at getting into really awkward places. I really recommend the stuff; I'm surprised more shops don't supply it.

Looks like a 'clay' bar that is used to do full-size car detailing. You can pick a whole tub of that stuff up quite easily.

How long does a tub last, does the gum lose its tack?

My one and only tub has lasted me around three years, depends how you use it, it doesn't lose its 'tack' if anything it gets more 'tacky', especially if it comes into contact with shock/bearing oil.

Grab a chunk of it, shove it in hard to reach spots (around drive shafts/bearings/etc) and it pulls all the crap away, as shown in the pic above!

Every pit box needs a tub!
