Seems like the order picking system at cyc isn't working very well at the moment. I've had two orders recently where they sent me incorrect items. One of those orders took them three tries to get right.

Good service and did their best to get it right though.
Same. They asked if I wanted a return label for the wrong item in the box....

What air fresheners are people using?

I do like Autosmart bottles but they gas you out...

Infinity Wax stuff looks interesting..

I had a freebie hanging one from In2detailing which lasted ages too.

California Car Scents for me. The xtreme ones were so much better but can't find them anywhere now so I just go for the normal ones, still last ages and always get compliments on them when people get in my car.

Grabbed this while I was at ALM this morning for a Geo setup on the E92 before we head away tomorrow for some NC500 action.

Gonna go wash it in a bit but looking forward to seeing the finish after @Gally etc recommended it earlier

Yeah, it's good.



One of the easiest products I've used and leaves a great finish, glad I bought some now and it'll end up being my go to drying aid now

Stop using Tapatalk and use your browser. The website is optimised now for it. Works great. 👍🏻

Rapid detailer we still buy by the gallon. Some offer different advantages but I feel like this ticks the most boxes. Funny the forensic detailing said the same. Some other miss out in areas but RD seems to just always work every time. I use it all the time. It costs me £6 for 500ml, so hard to beat for that!

Anyone tried the QDX Ceramic? How's it compare to the rapid detailer? Sorry if its already been mentioned in this thread somewhere.

yeah i do all the time. I find its best to apply it dry on the discs first thing. Then let it dry a bit while you set up buckets etc. otherwise you just rinse it off straight away with the jet wash. It doesnt totally stop them rusting but it does help keep the worst off like when using auto wheels. Really useful on gloss black wheels that look awful with rusty dust all over them

Oh yes. I love Infinity Wax. Haven't had a bad product yet.

AF Triple is really hard to remove. I've only used a tiny bit but it's pretty oily....
Any tips?!?!

I never got on with the stuff, didn't like how it was to remove and found my pads and towels hard to clean afterwards.

Not much use, only advice I can give is buy something else haha.

@Gally I’ve seen you asked on Detailing World earlier in the year about which connector type the Titan pressure washers use. Did you ever get an answer? Or better still, do you now have one to say for sure?

I have a Kranzle so can't be much help mate. Seemed to be a bit of a minefield bit the titan PWs get a great rep. Just not sure on fitment.

For a snow foam Lance? If so it’s a type 11 RAC Bosch… I ordered from here:

if not apologies, but I spent days researching Titan fittings for a snow foam Lance!
