Shipshape Silicoatin

Shipshape Silicoatin
Overall Auto Express rating

3.0

Best price: £23.70 | Size: 100ml

Shipshape is best known for importing former test winner Collinite wax, but has now come up with its own sealant. Silicoatin is a 100ml bottle that is sprayed on to a cloth, wiped vertically then horizontally on the paint a panel at a time before buffing. Easy enough, and it worked well, but it trailed the best at some assessments. More of a problem is that Shipshape reckons a bottle (we tried a small sample pack, right) is good for just one car, making protection expensive.
