They do. They react. A decent wax or sealant. To be honest nothing better than GTechniq c4.

Sorely tempted to take that car off you when you let it go. Few subtle bits like a map and a nice exhaust... Lovely.

If they were painted, without being baked, yes. As they would need to breathe/gas. Kev you know more about this if that's not a 100% explanation... That doesn't happen these days. It's a 90's worry, not a naughties.

You staying in MK?? Happy to!

Get home. Wash, detar, deiron, clay, polish, IPA, C5. Regardless of new wheels, I'd want the best base for the best product. 1hour of my time is worth the extra months it could last.

Agreed. But 476 is a very dull looking wax. I'd apply a cheap meguiars spray wax before 476 (on bodywork).

If you come to CSS I'll bring some. Probs won't be driving so you can have a glass and I'll get pished.

If you already have it, use the PBWD as it's perfectly acceptable. More than that. If not, buy this Prima that Kev keeps harping on about. I've not tried it, but I'm starting to be out of touch and I'd trust Kev's opinion on detailing as much as he trusts mine on Champagne. And that's saying...

I agree on the wasting money. It is something that I have been forced out of due to moving to London + lack of time, but I am actually thankful. Once the car goes, I stand to be impressively better off each month, purely due to not buying IronX, Tardis, G101 and the other usual monthly purchases...

Late to the party but agree on the 3M or Hex logic shouts.

Agree about polishing, Riz, but Dave also uses crystal rock and other waxes... I see no reason to skimp on longevity and looks if the OP can afford it.

Superb! New car? Or second hand from a dealer? As if that was new if actually reject that on the basis of the paint condition!!!

There is definitely a question in there somewhere, but fucked if I can find it.

In that case, a pressure washer like a Karcher or Nilfisk, coupled with a bucket of water is your answer. Failing that, pressure wash down at a local garage and then ONR. Glasur fits the bill for £100, Carbon for £50, Natty's Blue for £12. What colour is your car?

Thanks Jaff, emptied. John, missed a pm from you. Send it again now the inbox is free.

Fantastic colour to detail. I remember doing Chris' white ph1 rep. That came up superbly well - the green that came off the thing was amazing!

It'll be used once then up for sale again.

In answer to the other points; MFs - Eurow ones for the paint work, Costco cheap ones for arches and interior cleaning. Wax - what do you want from the wax and what is your budget? Longevity, looks, ease of application etc?

The pad will have picked up overspray most likely. Looks superb.
