    spoiler - it is 🤣 All show, no go in my experience. Alright if you just want to loosen the dirt or get rid of the dust but for actual cleaning power, its poo poo.

    Where abouts are you located @Daniel ? Some decent stuff about but depends where you are. Don't wanna recommend stuff that's 400 miles away 🤣

    I think autosmart tardis is still regarded as the 'daddy' of G&T removers. Personally, I find it a bit of a pain because I always forget to buy a proper resistant trigger and find it melts them when I leave it in a bottle.

    Tried loads. None of them last tbh. I bought 2 cans of the spray fresheners from autobrite as they were on offer. Can top it up as I want now and smells decent.

    Brave pills required

    I still think @Waitey owns the title for the biggest brave pill with his Alpina. Or should I say, BMW UK own the title 🤣

    Headlight restoring?

    Yeah, its proper panic stations when you're half way thinking 'oh well, theres always ebay' 🤣

    Headlight restoring?

    As above. The autoglym kit is great. Shove the attachments onto a drill and you get gradually finer grades of sand paper. Takes most of the hard work out of it. Pro Tip. Buy some clear coat to go over the top after you've finished as otherwise they'll fade again in a few months time!

    Thats exactly the approach I'm about to take 🤣. Depends if you're using @imprezaworks dilutions or usual dilutions 🤣. i think its not advised to get anything other than water on them for a while to let everything cure properly. Probably being over cautious but they take forever to do so ill...

    sounds like a dumb question but how would you go about cleaning off tyre lube? Just finished coating my wheels so cant go at it with anything harsh. Just leave it for a few days or go at it carefully? Hate the jizz all over the tyres

    So is C4 mate. Gtechniq, ages ago, came out as saying that C4 (Trim Restorer) is the same as C5 (Wheel Ceramic?). Basically, go buy a bottle of C4 and you can use it pretty much everywhere. I believe some have even used it as a proper paintwork ceramic too.

    New Laptop Spec - Photoshop and Video Editing

    Definitely no expert (really...) but is a laptop definitely what you need? From my computer days (10 years ago...) it was much much much cheaper to buy a PC than it was to buy a laptop of the same spec. Its a space issue mainly. If you can settle on a desktop as opposed to a laptop, you should...

    Ah I havent used those ones. Im sure @Hxrry will be able to comment. Depends heavily on the foam. For example, some foams are just massive shaving foam fests but do basically nothing. Others, like Bilt Hamber Autofoam, are caustic and do really well at cleaning but are thinner by nature...

    Ive found the easiest thing to do is leave the 'top tap' for dilution, wide open so it gives max suds. I never really mess with it, more so the actual dilution ratio. Max froth/suds/foam isnt always the best thing, just ask the BH Autofoam boys. Which foam do you have?

    The New Phone Thread

    Honestly, I didn't think I'd use it. I do use it alot. Being able to whip my pen out (pun also intended) and draw myself a note on the run is way more handy than it sounds. Also. Being able to draw dicks on the face of people I hate makes it worth it for that alone.

    I've not used many but a couple. Go for a well known one and you won't go far wrong. If you want to remove spots and add a little bit of protection, Koch Chemie FSE is amazing. Smells lovely too

    These silly long contracts are why I don't go for them anymore. 3 years? Nah mate. It's a phone not a car. I remember the switch over point when I thought I'd found the bargain of the century and then realised it was 3 years 🤣

    Sorry to sound like a negative nelly but... As cool as folding/sliding phones look and are, why? Just why! I dont want a phone that doubles in size. My Note 20 Ultra 5G is massive, as phones go. Not once have I thought 'ah but I wish it was the same size as my ipad or laptop'. However, I...

    Think ive posted this on here before but I have used the IW Synergy Lite before. Its really good tbh.
