on a grimey car I typically use VP citrus wash between 1-5 and 1-10. being generous over the panels, wheels and inner arches you'll get through a litre of mix pretty easily in a wash. so a 1litre bottle may last between 5 and 10 washes, but it can be diluted as far as 1-20 IIRC so will last...

any generic bottle will do, or use a pump sprayer from somewhere like B&Q, pump up to build the pressure and mist over the whole car. leave to dwell then pressure rinse off works fine with me

Anyone have an empty autofinesse wax pot they would part with? I dropped my pot of desire and smashed the lid

You're not from colchester are you, see an identical one every day on balkerne hill

In your case I'd use it after polishing, but don't really use it for when applying C2

that's quite an impressive finish you've managed from using S3 on a cutting pad without refining. I always need to follow it up with something

The rotating nozzle? Do not use that on the paint work. It is a narrow point jet not a fan, that spins at hight speed creating the circle. Get that near any kind of chip and you're likely to lift paint or clear coat. I only use that nozzle for cleaning the path and brickwork

Washing the car with your favourite wax safe ph neutral bare shampoo will also have an affect in the long run. But I'm yet to see a noticeable premature failure of a wax or bonding contaminants from using a pre wash product compared to not

The whole debate over which is better, whether it be a pre wash product and pressure rinse or a snow foam and pressure rinse will never be answered. But if you've just got your pressure washer, first try lightly rinsing the car then spraying citrus power or which ever pre wash product you have...

https://www.cleanstore.co.uk/products/productslistSub.asp?Main=Nilfisk-Pressure-Washer-Accessories&sub=Nilfisk-Lances-and-Nozzles I'd also recommend the 90' under chassic nozzle. Makes much easier work for getting into the arches

I think it's called the auto nozzle, gives a much wider jet than the than the adjustable pressure nozzle that it comes with

Never used cancoat, but EXO v1 was similar principal and so easy to apply and remove. If it's lasts 6 months then it's a winner if it maintains it's water behaviour That's the one kev, not really bothered with cleaner fluid but he's only half hour away. No what you mean about the titanium...

Countless issues with never dispatching orders and no correspondence from them when buyers chase orders

I wouldn't recommend anyone buy from autobrite directly after some of the issues there has been on DW

@Kyle 86 rates the bilt hamber product iirc

I've been considering buying another pot of something zymol for a while now. Nothing wrong with what I already have, but I'm just a bit bored I guess. Would either be carbon, although considering titanium as I now like a nice soft wax, although I spotted there's a used pot of shield for sale...

Ioclean in Southend stock it I believe, but they've just appeared on DW and I've never heard of them before http://www.ioclean.co.uk

Working for me

It's available now as the old version stock is finished http://www.seriousperformance.co.uk/Products,119,toView_772.html What would you compare it to? I have a habit of stocking a wide selection of QD's

The few I've seen in the flesh, I was most disappointed with the colour

Nice purchase at a great price. I've been fairly impressed with some of the gyeon products lately, although not tried cancoat yet

Do you have or have tried gtechniq C2 or carpro reload to compare against the gyeon cure? I'm liking a few of the gyeon products at the moment

I'm sure I was given a sample of RG 4x4 and don't really remeber it being all that much more durable if it is the one I'm thinking off. If you want that nice to use special feeling you won't be dissapointed by any zymol wax.

In the summer I tidied up my mother in laws run about, only washed once or twice a year with the washing up bowl, fairy liquid and an old dish cloth I kid you not! full pre rinsing, washing, de contaminated and washed again. Ran over it with clay and picked up a little, then the whole car with...

http://www.detailingworld.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=351785 I'm a firm believer in the use of pre wax cleansers and their versatility. But is it only me that thinks he's not washing the car properly and thoroughly if he's removing this much grime from the paint with a cleanser?
