[john182rs]

How long is 15ml of G1 likely to last? Is it like a sample bottle or enough to do a few coats and keep them going for a year?

Or is it worth forking out for the 100ml?

Made by Autobrite mate. Only Nanolex compares to G1 durability wise. The others will fade quicker.

15ml will probably do more than 3 cars with 3 layers each.

Bare in mind if applied correctly and new wipers used and looked after it'll last 2 years+. You can quote me on that.

 

[McGherkin]

Brilliant, cheers. May have to get some then!

 

[Gally]

Watch the video of application on YT and follow it to the letter and you'll be fine.

 

[Tony Hunter]

We use Rain x on the race car, works well.

 

[imprezaworks]

How much is rain x? And that video is impressive

 

[Tony Hunter]

Not that much, Halfords do it.

£7.99 500ml

 

[imprezaworks]

Bargain, may invest.

 

[Gally]

That video isn't rain X.

 

[imprezaworks]

Yeah I know mate. Just had a nose on amazon, are there different companies that make it or is it just one brand?

 

[Cliotoby]

£7.99 plus some glass polish and clay!

Buy some g1 ffs.

 

[imprezaworks]

Lol ok. Well where do I get the g1 stuff from

 

[McGherkin]

Gtechniq's website. Google Gtechniq G1.

I just got a pack of G1 and G4 for £20.

 

[imprezaworks]

Ok cheers

 

[imprezaworks]

What about aquapel?

 

[imprezaworks]

Or the g5 as it looks less hassle to apply?

 

[Gally]

It is but doesn't last as long.

 

[imprezaworks]

If it doesn't last as long, lets say six months that's fine, I tend not to keep my cars too long lol.

 

[Gally]

Haha! Yeah should be fine mate.

 

[imprezaworks]

You can see my logic then lol.

I would not compare this repel mk2 too G1, how would it fair with G5 though?

I'll find out sooner or later anyhow.

 

[imprezaworks]

Have you bought something to try mate?

 

[McGherkin]

Assuming this is similar stuff?

 

[imprezaworks]

Impressive lol

Just learnt that the anti fog variant of rainx is utter tripe. Works well for the first 2/3 hours of driving then just greases up.

 

[Tony Hunter]

You a heavy breather.

 

[Cliotoby]

+1 my car usually starts off steamed up on a cold morning then about 5 mins later is un-steamed. You been smashing your missus and building up the old condensation?

 

[imprezaworks]

So i went for 'anglewax h2go' after reading some decent reviews on it. £6 a bottle too. Will see how i get on.

 

[Tony Hunter]

FK, you mind up your mind, that quick??

 

[imprezaworks]

Lol, being all decisive to start next year off

The rainx stuff is s**te unless you properly clean the inside window with polish and still then you'll need 3-4 coats for it to last over a month.

Get Carpro Figfight, simple clean the inside and apply. Ive sprayed steam onto the window and it does not fog up at all, bathroom mirrors writing Boo! on them usually gets a squeel when the other half went for a bath.

And fogfight is £4.85 off i4D...

 

[VIICarCare]

Nanolex is my fave. Although, I've yet to try Rain X

 

[Yellow Dave]

I've kept my rain x, use it on the house only, won't be going near the car

 

[GiT]

GTechniq vote here. Worked ace on the new Clio, took a lot more work on the Mondeo with its 95k on the clock.

I'll send you some in a small sample bottle, free delivery but might take a while for it to arrive.

What do you use it for in the house?

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

Shower doors etc? Read quite a lot that people use it for that.

 

[Yellow Dave]

Windows and doors, shower screen and tiles etc

G5. For everything. Rub it on. Buff it off. Works wonders.
