How many in all seriousness have alarms?!
And if they do, I'm only doing quick jobs - not the usual all day details so for 30 mins or so you may have to wait around on the stand

No thats fine - good idea to build up layers of wax - with Dodo for example I try to build up 3 or 4 coats then leave it for a good few months before stripping off any remaining and starting again

Entirely up to you mate - bare in mind I'm not doing extensive valeting or detailing - it's more a tidy up to remove all the flies and road grime etc accumulated on the journey to the pod - not to clean off all the crap from a month's motoring etc
The polish I'll be using isn't that abrasive - more a liquid wax based polish

Just to keep you all updated on the other stuff I'm there for:
Provision of free car cleaning material.
I will be bringing 5L of shampoo and 5L of polish for anybody who forgets their cleaning stuff so they can do the basics. Cloths, buckets, sponges etc WON'T be available via me though I'm afraid.
Dodo Juice Products
I've spent near on £1k on the stock for PVS, however a lot of it has already pre - sold and been paid for and being collected at PVS. Dodo haven't been all that helpful in allowing me any stock on sale or return basis etc so I have therefore not been able to buy in any further stock ahead of PVS. I am expecting to run out fairly quickly at the show. However, I will be taking orders for anything I don't have an ordering it upon my return from the show. I will be taking deposits for any orders placed to avoid being mucked around though.
And obviously on top of all that I'm there to offer advice where I can and quote slightly more local people on anything they may want me to do to their car

It's Meguiars
Best wax - Rainforest Rub or Hard Candy. Seeing as you seem to like pink I'd say Hard Candy! £28.95 at PVS - deposit before hand will reserve it

Won't have any open Hard Candy, may have to bring my open Rainforest Rub to demo though.
In the heat they take about 15 mins to cure, in the winter, can leave for a hour or longer
