Hard to tell still from the pics but doesn't look promising. Had you asked them to wash it or was it complimentary? Either way I would take it back in there to show them the damage. Even if the wash was free you should not accept them damaging your paintwork. I get scared if my car goes in to...

IS this Blue Peter all of a sudden?! A good shampoo combo I used this weekend was CG wash n wax with Saab wax shampoo, think it might be Sonax shampoo in a different bottle. Came up super sleek.

Think Rich has made one, oterwise I read a great one the other day which was really extensive and included a lot of details many people would neglect. Could have been on Polished Bliss, I'm at work at the moment so can't really check but I'm sure someone will confirm for you.

Yeh, sounds simple, but take your time. Biggest tip is avoid using too much product and getting it down seals where it is difficult to remove, otherwise your car will have loads of white all over it and won't look good at all! I apply using a foam applicator and a good microfibre - you can get...

No not twice just didn't read my post through. Was just giving you something to compare the M3 detail with.

I charge £40 for a good shampoo, dry, arches, seals, windows, polish, arches, tyres and maybe the dash if if I am feeling generous. If I am doing more to the paint then the skies the limit, depends how far the customer wants to go, many are happy with just a polish looks wise but normally...

I think a car with a spoiler like that "shines" enough already dude! :rasp:

£30 strikes me as being pretty cheap, presuming you had to drive to this guys house, pay for all the products and then the labour. If the guys got a CSL not like he can't afford it!

Pics?

Did another coat of jeffs spray sealant and collinite 487s.... braved the cold and wind, both products seemed really hard to remove today (my arm's are killing!) and as I had the r adio on to listen to the footy, my battery was dead and no one who has any jump leads that I know are out! Bloody...

Legends among men, glad it was the simple way, was getting worried I would have to disconnect the battery and reprogram codes.... cheers!

Sweet, cheers mate much appreciated, just wasn't sure if you had to do anything different because of the immoboliser as my mates car died and had to be sorted at a dealers... can hopefully get on my way now!:D

bump anyone?!

Hi guys, I need some help urgently as meant to be driving back to Reading for work very soon. Basically, been cleaning my car with the radio on and lost track of time, and now the battery seems flat. The radio was still working before I turned it off so some life left, but when I used the...

Cheers for the feedback guys. I like the Contis but have never tried the Goodyears so have nothing to compare them to. Has anyone tried both? Cheers!

The time to fork out for another complete set of tyres on my 172 is upon me again, not great so close before Christmas! I have heard the Goodyears are good, but currently on Conti Sports and have been perfectly happy with them, so just wondering if people thought the Goodyears provide superior...

Yeh... thinking will finally give in and get one in the new year. Will be appreciating saving time on the polishing more than anything! Cheers for the feedback Rich.

Do you guysonly use your PC to polish or apply sealants/ glazes too? I have never PC'd my car but was in great shape when I bought it and taken top care of it myself, I know it would improve the finish marginally PCing it, but do you think its worth the investment? I have been deliberating...

A signed tin of wax?! I could die a happy man if I won that!! :D Unfortunately I don't think I can buy any more car care products for a while without my family thinking I am insane! To be honest I have started questioning myself!!

They are all out of stock though unfortunately according to the site :(

Trust me I never win things. No doubt the prize will get lost in the post, or this is all an elaborate hoax!;)

I've won some synthetic detailer! I have so much QD I might spray some on myself it smells so good! Cheers guys. :star:

I may finally have to give into the PC brigade............NOOOOOOOOOOO Kenny!!:dead:

I don't know why I am excited I never win anything!! :mad:

In that order mate. Basically, you need at least a polish to clean the paint (I used the clay to thoroughly clean of all contaminants and strip back the wax). Having clean paint is the key to getting the sealant to bond to the surface - if this is not achieved the whole process is thoroughly...

And the winner is......................??!?!??!:D

I used: Sonus clay Chemical Guys extreme wash and wax Autoglym super resin polish Chemical Guys M sealant Jeffs werkstatt acrylic jett trigger Collinite 476S x 2 This should see me through winter/ nuclear holocaust :cool:

Appologies for asking but why the sudden craze for suds?!
