Maybe look into their fallout remover as well. It's a iron remover like ironx but without the bleeding so you won't see it working until you rinse

I thought the day's of not using a tar remover before claying were long gone now that using clay isn't such a new thing. Hopefully that's an old pic as I've lifted very little when claying after using oblitarate. A tar remover also removes a lot of organic material such as aphid and tree sap...

Any general all purpose cleaner diluted will help lift any grime and dust wiped down with a microfiber cloth

Cheers Kev. Have you used any of the other nano wheel sealants yet? Will be looking for more come spring, not sure if to stay with the new GT formula. Will pull off one of the other wheels next week with more pictures of the grime and how easy it washes off

I clean the outside more often than the inside, but carry a glass cleaner and cloth in the car. As long as the glass is clean keep the outside shining, but for my sake, neighbours and friends think it's a waste of time

Lime prime can be used to remove some minor swirls or marring used with a machine polisher, but a good technique is required with a lot of practice. General working with a polisher will give a better cleanse and worked the fillers in. I loved it via DA to the point I started to give up on...

Srp and hd wax is a great cheap combo. Looks good

Carpro eraser is specially made and correctly diluted to be used on paint as another option to IPA. Spray on the panel or MF cloth, wipe over and remove

I'd personally use one or the other instead of both lime prime and blackhole

Only said 69 as I was thinking about Bill and Teds excellent adventure. All for the sh!ts and giggles!

http://www.i4detailing.co.uk/acatalog/Isopropanol_cleaning_fluid_1.html removes oils, residues etc left from products. Think of panel wipe used in a body shop prior to painting to ensure it's 100% clean

Looks good, always satisfying working on a grubby soft top and seeing the dirt lift off. If I may add though.... get a belt!! Trousers falling down whilst working over the engine's not a pretty thing :rasp:

last time I used it, 4x 17" wheels used about 10-12ml of a 15ml bottle, both inside and outside faces. 1 applicator per wheel is all that is needed. BUT you will over apply the 1st time you use it, it spreads a lot further than you would think. I'd always recommend an IPA or panel wipe wipedown...

Hexlogic black, white and green would be a good start. If you find you're not getting enough cut from the green pad then more to orange, but the green pad seems to be quite a flexible and useful pad that I use the most.

The thought of the towel just sounds like it is going marr all over the place. But in fairness I don't really know how it actually works

Nanolex or cquartz are the others I'd considor, but haven't had a need to look into anything else yet.

There's always one! Thread follows a dig at a friend who uses local car washes that tarnished his wheels What can i say, in 6months itll be a family car for real. I didnt get a lot of choice in choosing the wife's car, other than blue over silver

If you are new to detailing, get your wash routine sorted first, then look at decontaminating the paint, follow this up with either a cleanser or glaze, followed by a sealant and wax. Get yourself a wax safe Ph nuetral shampoo, wash mitt and drying towel. tar remover, maybe an iron remover...

People are often asking which is the best wheel sealant, how to remove grime and baked on brake dust. The common answer is to use a nano / ceramic / quartz wheel sealant instead of the many cr@ppy items on the market. This way cleaning is effortless. No harsh chemicals needed. But the majority...

I'd personally ignore that comment. 99.9% of products can be used on all colours, even the colour charged products. All comes down to personally preference.

spray on and leave to work, not much else to it. just dont overspray. 3 or 4 should be more than enough per wheel to get the reaction started

standard spray head is fine. just dont spray so much on next time. dont think ive ever used that much on a fukl car that had never been sealed or decontaminated before. all comes down to user error im afraid

tardis, g101, maybe one of their snowfoams which i cant remember the name of

as with most of these dealer applied products, prep and proper application might get some decent performance

what was it like to apply?
