    black polish non abrasive

    Polishes won't be colour-specific. If you want a good non-abrasive polish to apply by hand I'd recommend AutoGlym SRP, Poorboys Blackhole (glaze with fillers) or Auto Finesse Tripple (all-in-one product).

    iOS7 - Features/Screenshots

    I've gone back to 6 for the time being. Got to say, 7 really does feel so much slicker than 6 when you revert back. However (as you would expect...) it's just not reliable enough for me to use regularly yet. Still, looking forward to seeing it all finished and polished in the Autumn. Hopefully...

    Slick wax for a sliver car.

    Yeah I found its curing time REALLY short for an oily wax. In the end I was doing about a quarter of my roof/bonnet at a time and just one smaller panel. Pleased with the results though and probably have enough of Gally's sample left to do the car another 4/5 times.

    Slick wax for a sliver car.

    I used Bouncers Capture the Rapture yesterday on mine and was pleasantly surprised with the results. Nice and glossy but it really does get the flake popping in sunlight:

    Oh definitely, nothing wrong at all but I'd say use them as disposable ones / a couple if uses. The Megs ones last and last if cared for.

    They'll do the job but I've found there's little point keeping them. Even when washed and dried, they seem to flatten quite a bit.

    I'd always recommend getting decent ones. The eBay jobbies are generally thin and break apart too easily.

    iOS7 - Features/Screenshots

    I love it so far. Little things like the background moving behind icons when you tilt are really nice - quite androidy maybe but cool all the same.

    Sonax Brilliant Shine QD - All youll ever need!

    Without using C2V3, I can't really compare. However I'd say the benefits are its price point / quantity. This single bottle will last me years. My paintwork definitely feels smoother now than it did after application. Also very little dust on it 24 hours later, although I don't know if that's...

    Sonax Brilliant Shine QD - All youll ever need!

    Just finished using this on my car. No time for any pics but thought I'd add my opinion. First of all, I'd go as far as to say this simply isn't a QD. It doesn't spread like one, doesn't feel like one, doesn't leave a QD finish and I had to give it a good scrub to remove even the lightest...

    New Xbox announced, tonight 18:00PM

    So if you wirelessly connect to a router, would that still happen if the console was off?

    New Xbox announced, tonight 18:00PM

    So what's this online check-in thing about then? The previously linked article can't be serious when it says you have to go online every 24 hours or you can't play your games!?! I can go for weeks without turning a console on but still expect to be able to play a game at a later date...

    I use a couple of Vikan brushes, have lasted me years now with no signs of wearing out.

    Alright mate, calm down, I was genuinely asking. ​You need to take a step back and stop being so defensive and OTT on here.

    If you have no detergent then what is actually washing the cloths? Just the heat of the water? I always use half a cap of non-bio on a hand wash setting. I air dry them as I hate funky damp smells.

    Very cheap, very good Wheel cleaner!

    I'll take a couple off your hands mate. I live in Thorverton (just off the A396 by the Ruffwell) and work in Exeter so can meet somewhere easy? Uh, yeah, PM'd also.

    I've bought some but not used it yet. I'm going to use it as a sealant though and, for that purpose, it seems very good.

    Going to de swirl my RS another 'recommend me' thread…

    Definitely. The backing plate should be smaller than the pad by at least a small amount.

    Is there any benefit at all to using both Tripple and Blackhole? I'd imagine they'll both render the previous step pointless?

    What have you ordered? *Detailing*

    Just had a bit of an impulse buy on CYC and ordered some Sonax Brilliant Shine Detailer, a small Vikan wheel brush, some more Bilberry and a litre of Lather.

    How far will the sample stretch Gally? I'll take it if its a couple car's worth.
