Always wondered where they get all the kiwis from to make the polish in the first place and who discovered that Kiwis make good polish.

You would be referring to 'Klear', but the floor cleaning product of choice for the young Household Cavalryman of today is 'Future', whichisn't sold in the UK, so its specially imported, or snaffled from RAF Lakenheath. Its the bloody dogs bollocks as well, if its used properly that is. No idea if it can be demanded.

Dual. Replaced by Kleer. Both would leave a tell-tale blue puddle when you paraded in the rain.
