    Eco was shat in my opinion. As Ant said, lasted a week. Poor. AF gave me a free bottle of satin, so looking forward to trying that.

    You know you're a car geek when...

    Likewise, hence I took an interest when it appeared. They had 22 accidents attributed to this fault, I believe. Several fatalities as well, so amazed it's not a required update/recall.

    Auto Finesse Test Panel - Test one, Tripple & Spirit

    Make sense and yes, defo will chap. Get some photos after a wash for comparison.

    Auto Finesse Test Panel - Test one, Tripple & Spirit

    Minor correction on the '8. So IPA wipedown. Only one coat. Not topped up by dad. Quick fix, stupidly.

    Product testers wanted!

    Aye, that's a plan. Well we have three pots between us. It's a panel pot that I've got around a car before, so should be feasible. What's the chatter about weekend after next, so 16th/17th? Rob Scrooge

    Auto Finesse Test Panel - Test one, Tripple & Spirit

    Still need to try that properly. Sprayed it on dads car, didn't see it for 6 months, came back and surprise surprise there was no sign.

    What have you ordered? *Detailing*

    Aye, likewise. Still have enough for another wash (and my God she needs it) but defo want a decent amount in storage.

    Auto Finesse Test Panel - Test one, Tripple & Spirit

    No offense, which is always read as "offensive", but that's not tight beading, -J- It's not bad, perse, but it's certainly not the best I've seen. Interested to see how everyone else gets on. Other thing to note is I presume the car is dirty, so that affects beading?

    What have you ordered? *Detailing*

    Yeah just noted that, Ant. Just PM'd Richard to find out what's going on with it, as it's now there, but without the Buy Now button.

    My write off and new car.

    Hey, at least a lot of people on here know what year it is, "newbie from 2008" ;)

    Must. Not. Comment. OT - this http://www.waxyshop.co.uk/detailing-product-bulk-buys/hubiwash-v2-500ml.html Scrooge because I said I'd let you know when it was back in stock.

    My write off and new car.

    I definitely do. For example, a conversation I've recently had with my manager went as follows; JD - y0 Rach, I can't work out this Excel sheet "sad face" LOL. Could you help multiple question marks, ones and exclamation marks smiley face Manager - p45

    You know you're a car geek when...

    You notice a car and take an interest in it because it's missing a recall item. Saw a mk1 Audi TT without a rear spoiler over the weekend and presumed it is unroadworthy due to the recall about rear lift...

    My TT QS

    Re: My new car. TTQS I've seen this mod. So what happens when you brake or reverse? You've said you fitted a red LED... so does it light up when you chuck it in reverse?

    My write off and new car.

    Alan - Bear's back, welcome sailor! OP, learn from it. Hope the insurance know about the springs/mods and you get the pay out you need/want.

    Makes perfect sense. And I'm more tempted to continue. £180 a year is a lot for products that as has been stated, tend to sit on shelves until users have time. £90 is much more of a "one off pressie" to one's self... lol.

    Detailing Chat & Questions Thread

    Decent correction first time around. 95% correction. Pros achieve it. I managed it a few times on the Clio, but that was ridic soft paint. Not a lot you can do, by memory. Certainly wouldn't be using the buffing towels on paint work again. Probably demote them to plastics or arches, just to be...

    Not a case of "as long", will barely last at all, from what I've read fella. Wax won't be as durable or provide anti marring properties.

    whats brushes do you recommend?

    On a serious note, the Envy brush set have lasted me for years, with no sign of giving up. Set of five different sizes was no more than £15 from eBay. For the insides, the EZ detail brush (normal, not mini). For arches, I use a MF Noodle mitt as it allows me to get in to all the nooks.

    Adamm. c**t, offer still open to take some bits and bobs off your hands. Few items I'm defo after that might make up a full box, so can discuss on here or via pm. c**t. Lol.

    Product testers wanted!

    Yeah have to say I was impressed by that. Presumed it was another package that arrived today that was sending those texts!

    Yep, for a couple of months. Ceramics need a 100% oil free surface to bond correctly, hence the IPA wipedown before application. You'll either remove the fillers from SRP/Tripple with the IPA wipedown, or you'll have wasted spending a few £££ on the ceramic sealant.

    whats brushes do you recommend?

    Oral B, or the SoniCare ones, usually.
