I thought that but the limited reviews look positive. I guess as it removes the wipe on element it can only be a good thing? No idea on durability though.

Anyone tried AF lavish? Ceramic infused snow foam to be used post contact wash. I’m wondering if it’s a good alternative to C2V3.

My professional detailer who applied GEN3 glass coat to my S2000 told me it’s been known for minor imperfections to be on the coatings alone but let’s be honest, coatings are so thin it’ll only be the lightest of marks. Only PPF offers a level of protection but then we’ll fitted, quality PPF...

Do any coatings offer swirl protection? It’s just a spray coating with great water repellency and UV protection. Durability is up to 6 months. It lasts but the shine tails off quickly (looks great when first applied) I tend to reapply it every 3-4 wash as it’s as quick and simple to apply than QD.

Understood and I thought the same until I tried one. Same as every other detailing world owner. I've never seen anyone say anything negative about them unlike Nilfisk and Karcher owners. Beers and opinions though.

How much do you want to spend? K5 and K7 are good PWs. If you want something that feels like a petrol station PW and built to last a lifetime then go for a Kranzle. My 1152 is epic and although pricey it’s one of my best bits of detailing kit I own. For something that I use once a week, it’s...

I love C2v3 on my beater, it’s as quick and easy to apply as detailer and easily lasts a couple of months. I tend to apply it every month or so as it’s so easy and makes the car look great. I’m not aware of a better product when it comes to ease of application vs durability. You can also use it...

1) DAS 6 pro 2) Couple of Chemical Guys orange pads 3) AIO compound (Angelwax Enigma is a good starter) Job jobbed.

Don’t quote me but around 70ish I believe. I’d say that’s tops though, 50-60 is probably more realistic unless you’re really careful. Yes, the raceglaze option is an upright blue tank. https://www.raceglaze.co.uk/car-care-exterior/rinsing-water-filters/400-litre-0ppm-car-washing-filter/...

Yep, exactly that. Best used with an open hose as a final rinse. Raceglaze also sell refillable units. Cost is about £100. TBH I like mine so much I’ll probably go for that next as it’ll work out cheaper in the long run. It’s absolutely perfect if you’re wanting to avoid spotting or a contact...

Regarding water spots, just buy a 0ppm water filter. I did and it’s arguably the best detailing “tool” I have (alongside my Kranzle PW). Use it as a final rinse aid and forget about drying cloths.

Shame...no like for like products out there?

I still have half a bottle, love the stuff. Any idea why they stopped manufacturing it?

+1 I’ve got a bottle too but yet to try it.

Bought a 0ppm Di Vessel (Aqua Gleam) to try. Will be interesting to see how well it works.

Product comparisons are where its at. Cleaning best pro five videos have been done to death.

I bought the AG one from halfords. Worked really well and very easy (albeit time consuming). Wasn’t that cheap (halfords prices) but I’m sure you’ll find it pretty cheap on eBay and the likes.

Yep, that’s what I’ve started to do after using a prewash. I find SF pretty pony after using PW as it doesn’t seem to add much to the equation. I’m currently using AF citrus power which I find great. I go through 5l in next to notice using my pump sprayer though so it’s far from cost effective...

Is there a risk of letting snow foam dry? I’ve used it as a wash aid before but most pro’s online go with a shampoo mix through a foam lance instead. I presume the risk of doing this using SF is it could stain if left to dry?

The best snow foam Lance on the market is the MTM Hydro. MTM Hydro Italian Foam Lance, foam gun for pressure washers, M22 Male https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07F42Z7B9/?tag=cliospnet01-21 Recommended by the top detailing youtubers etc. I love mine.

It’s a good point. I’ve got a metrovac blaster mini and to be honest never use it. Always wondered on wether drying by hand is quicker.

I’ve been looking at this. Seems great value and the reviews on other sites look great. https://www.cleanandshiny.co.uk/products/blo-air-rs-car-blower?variant=31135158239330&currency=GBP&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIqeiTyZKD5wIVh6ztCh18WQV2EAQYASABEgJaLPD_BwE

Sounds like Sky are your man

Have you tried Admiral etc?

Woolite is perfect for the job.

Wire wool (with soap if you can find it). Water, Autosol and a few scrubbing sponges is all you need.

Difference between a Kia and a Audi in terms of build quality. I was quite amazed.

Yes, more professional than general domestic use. Handle one though and the price difference is very apparent. It's built like a tank. The oil in it has to be changed after the first 50 hours and then every 250 hours. It's been built to last a lifetime. All the components are made out of brass...

Definitely. Off the top of my head the base unit was £650. I had to wait a while for the GB to end but it makes sense buying from an authorised uk seller. According to ECC the RRP is £800 so there can’t be much profit in it for ECC.
