200 is much more of a looker/more road presence. everything about it is better visually IMO. I did like the 197, but the 200 makes it look dated. Everything from the gloss black rear diffuser, to the front end.
Yeah doing it outside. Heard so many good reviews on Z8 so want to give it a bash, i was going to buy it a last month but opted for tough coat instead. Used all of that now so deffo trying Z8
I used to do my alloys with 476 which is why I thought of buying it again, but may knock that on the head as it is a hard product to use. Hopefully get on better with Zaino Z8 - can you see this when applying to the paintwork? e.g see where i have applied it? With TC i kept adding more as the...
I have used AF tough coat, wasnt that impressed, couldnt see it going on the paintwork so ended up using ALOT of it each time, to the point where i took the spray nozzel off and poured in on without the top on.
Not necassarily durability, just shine really. As like I say, I wash every week so...
Ye sure, first my
CYC order form:
Autofinesse Tripple
Zaino Z8
Meguiars Shampoo plus (3.78 liters for £23) - should last me longer
Collinite 476
Megs Endurance tyre gel
Vinyl and rubber care for my engine bay, interior and black plastics
i4detailing order form:
Britemax black max...
Ok, on i4detailing as they dont do Tripple what I have done is is
- swapped Tripple and replaced with Britemax Black Max polisher glaze
- swapped collinite 476 for Britemax high gloss polymer wax
Both are smaller bottles but will do the job just as good.
Do my Polo and the 200, use about 3 buckets on each, and a fair bit of liquid, i find the more i put in the more suds so normally use alot. not a fan of shampoos that have no bubbles as it doesnt feel as if i am washing it properly. hence why I'm not a fan of AG Body Shampoo, too watery imo...
I use the big 1 liter gold class which does me 4 weeks-ish. Which is what i mean by quite dear at £16!
So Z8 and Britemax high gloss wax for sure.
Is britemax blackmax for dark cars though, i see it under polish but is it the same as SRP and Tripple, just an alternative?
Looked at the...
I love AF Tripple. applys really easy, buffs off really easy and gives a great feel to the paintwork. Shame they only come in small bottles as they dont last long
May go for the Britemax high shine, although it is much smaller bottle than collinite? May go through it quickly?
Wax - Britemax, Sealent - Z8, need to get some Tripple but its more P+p from their site as its not available from i4detailing. What about shampoo? normally use gold class but its...
Also is this any good
http://www.perfectlycleaned.co.uk/britemax-max-shine-high-gloss-liquid-carnauba-and-polymer-car-wax---473ml-892-p.asp worth getting over Collinite 476?
What do we think of this...

Says polish for silver cars, guess it will be like SRP/Tripple?
and also this wax...
Thing with megs is i put it on, drive the next day and it leaves all black marks on the inside of the arches/down the bottom of the sills. So i sometimes use AG Tyre spray as it doesnt flick up left right and center.
Do you think I need both Z6 and Z8, or just one of them? Ive got an order form with both on, but is it worth buying both or put my money on something different?
Is Zaino Z6 more of a QD then? I see its cheaper than Z8 but doesnt get as good reviews. Got any werkstat links I can have a gander at?
I used collinite 476 for a while but found it hard to buff off, it basically took abit of pressure to get it off.
Because I want to apply something to it every week, otherwise the paint doesnt look/feel as nice.
I had AF Finale Spray and wasnt that impressed tbh, it was basically like water.
