In short: NOOOO!
Worked in a dealership and I know what a ridiculous margin they make on it, which you wouldn't mind so much if it was actually that good. It doesn't last as long as they claim and doesn't look all that either.
Head over to the detailing forum for some recommendations mate if...
I'd go for Chemical Guys Extreme Wash, or Maxi Suds if you are just after foam... Megs is poor for foaming by all accounts and just generally not great.
Never used this myself but I think everyone slates this shampoo for that reason. Use Chemical Guys Extreme Body Wash and really like it. Looking at Swisswax Car Bath when that runs out as its meant to be really gentle on all waxes and leave a really good finish.
Don't have one myself but look like they are pretty good at what they are designed for. Think most the people who have them are very pleased, so if you are after excessive foam, could be worth a squirt (excuse the rubbish pun!):dead:
Blackfire gel for me, albeit I have never used Poorboys. A lot of pros use the Blackfire though, and can be layered to enhance the look. Sometimes I use a layer of Chemical Guys New Look Vinyl dressing after just to add to the gloss look.
Does it just fit on the end of the hose then Rich or how does it work?
In the Summer especially I imaigne that would be great, as even if its not sunny it's still generally hotter and therefore more evaporation.
I always seem to get a dribble of water coming from my rear window.... water just...
Yeh bright sunlight and petrol stations are my litmus tests...although the petrol station always shows up every tiny blemish when you look closely. It's like staring at a spot in one of those mirrors in a shop dressing room!
Brilliant that game was amazing! Did anyone play the Sensible Soccer/ Cannon Fodder crossover demo ages ago on the Amiga? Basically it was Sensible Soccer but with the CF characters... the ball was also a bomb, which had tragic consequences.
Brilliant - more retro games!
But can it with the upgraded cable someone mentioned? If so, do you know what its called and approx. how much it will be?
I feel left in the dark ages not knowing :(
Thanks for any more info - just want some game action with the best graphics the system is capable of, and as I have a good...
Dealerships should conduct an inspection whenever you leave your car with them to avoid this kind of situation - no doubt they will dispute it, or won't admit to it as you have noticed after leaving unfortunately.
The Chips Away people who worked on my car before I purchased it did a really...
Really... I must try that combo sometime. In the meantime I am using some bleach to fix a small stain on my carpet.
bleach - the new detailing miracle product!!:boring:
Water alone won't work... I don't think Rich said that. I use a mixture of water, shampoo and QDs when I clay... think Rich just uses water and shampoo. The richer the mixture the better IMO.
Also, you can either use a bottle with spray nozzle or a mitt to apply - I tend to use a mit as you...
Mmmm... black!
It will be a sad day when I no longer have a black car and I'm not scruitinising over swirl marks any more! Actually... not that sad! ;)
That's what I thought - so maybe these are some top of the range waxes? To be honest though I'm not sure who these will appeal to. They are too expensive for novices, and people looking for top end products will probably go with trusted brands and products (with less silly names!)
However they...
Yeh, I have one scratch on my bonnet (although very faint) and one just below my boot opening. Then just some minor swirls, but they only seem to appear in petrol stations - does anyone else notice this?!
I'm a bit scared of removing clear coat too, I mean the PC worked excellently...
Must be looking sweet as now then... get some photos up with the Destiny though!
Think I might go back and PC my bonnet again, its about 96% swirls free now, but what with the sun out the 4% is really annoying me! Bit of a b**ch though taking all the layers off on there but... :rolleyes:
