I asked the same question many years ago. Turns out it is just the composition meaning application is different, but nothing else

My pot of raceglaze 55 will be up for sale shortly. Think of vice concours but with far better durability

Tempted, can't see much improved water behaviour with the new one. Nor do I need the increased durability or chemical resistance so not much gain for me in the new formula.

Mae with most sealants, they will perform there best over a bare clean surface. Using over another product may affect it's overall performance and durability but with it so easy to apply it's not the end of the world if you need to top it up a few weeks earlier than normal

You think they'd sell off the old formula discounted? Can't imagine it myself as all their stockists would be doing so

A combination of these two, and the i4d uber towel http://www.simplymicrofibre.co.uk/gtechniq-mf1-zeror-microfibre-buff-cloth-34-p.asp http://www.simplymicrofibre.co.uk/flexipads-buffing-scratchless-white-wonder-towels-x2-41-p.asp looking at it under good lighting it's not your average...

Can you post up a photo, I'm not far from you and might be able to help if machine polishing can help

Tripple fills pretty well so not sure how much you'd gain using ultra over the top. If you don't need the cleansing to remove old previous waxes and you've already stripped back then maybe go straight to ultra. If you need it to strip old products it won't do any harm using both and should leave...

Carpro claim as do elite, that elitecarcare has it already. To to be honest id be happy with an older bottle at a discounted price.

Mk5 golf in gloss black. Pretty sure it's not my wash routine as both washes, including the quick wash after polishing have had pressure rinse, snow foam, pressure rinse before 2bm with a incredimitt that is rinsed with the pressure washer after each wash. Drying is pat dry with either the i4d...

Do you ever wonder why we bother so much for a swirl free finish? I've just walked past my car in the right light and seen the most horrendous swirls incurred by myself. I knew owning a gloss black car wouldn't be fun but was the best of the bunch when looking for a car for work. Spent a few...

Agree with that completely. I cant ant remember what the water behaviour was like now but certainly wasn't disappointed by it

As a stand alone product I don't think C2 cuts it. But as a top up product it's fantastic

Not really much benefit in it to be honest unless you're using it to ensure the surface is perfectly free of any previous products or to remove polishing oils that may be masking swirls. If you really want to use it, use it after full decon and re wash, before tripple but as said there won't...

You tried it yet. Running low on C2 so this is an obvious replacement as I favoured the older reload to C2

Knuckles how big and how much was the gazebo?

I went to rejuvenate after finishing lime prime and keep buying more, but always consider trying like prime again. I guess it depends on what you're hoping to get from it or use it for rejuvenate cleanses better I think with a more LSP friendly base. Lime prime maybe a deeper finish with its...

Blue and red Hexlogic are they glaze and LSP pads but are very soft with no bite, softer than black so would be very little benefit in using anything over white or black IMO. Rejuvenate pre wax cleanser is always in my collection. Lifts out loads of dirt, removes old waxes and sealants leaving...

Orange would only be used for heavy cutting on major swirls or hard paints like VAG. Green was a lot more versatile with the right compound. Is is this for the cleansing and glazing you mentioned? If so I wouldn't use anything heavier than white

Black would be ok for glazes. And either black or white for cleansers. I found white really showed a load of dirt being pulled from the paint, and used with something like like prime or rejuvenate that has a little abrasion to it will work very well

I have the chemical guys clay mitt and was most impressed until it left almost like flatting marks on my golf and not used it since. On a well maintained car traditional clay is still the best option IMO. The ADS and Carpro cloths seem highly thought, as do the halfords G3 mitts

What I was getting at is you shouldn't need anything more than a mild clay. I'm currently using the AF clay and even on cars I've never touched before that's enough to remove the last of the debris. Therefore you should be looking more at your early decon stage rather than the end clay use

You shouldn't really be relying on the clay to remove the contaminants TBH. A mist of tat remover left to dwell, as it starts to dry mist again. Then mist a MF applicator and wipe down each panel. On cars that have never been touched before this has always worked well and a fine gentle clay will...

That little mileage and garaged any wax will last well, even best of show. Car looks a dark metallic silver? Consider bouncers 22 or satsuma rock as an alternative to SNH when used over lime prime

Carbon will always be a good choice at any budget, but for the feel and application I just think essence and illusion are fantastic

Have you used it yet? Definitely a step in the right direction from their original waxes. Feels just like illusion it with claims of better durability and cheaper it's going to put an end to soul and passion IMO. Reckon I'll be buying a little sample pot off Kyle86 if he lets me

I used lime prime as a base. Seemed very over rated from my own testing. Never got anywhere past 3/4 months on many occassions

I like lime prime, leaves a lovely finish. Didn't think much to SNH, beaded well to start but didn't seem to have great durability. Certainly nothing better than the standard range of dodo waxes, and not as nice or easy to apply or remove
