Applicator pads? You can't beat the Meguiars even coat ones, but the basic cheap ones with the elastic strap will suffice

Looks like a good collection of products this month. What's the golden ticket for?

this is were dealers and a lot of valet places fall short. did they try a proper iron remover? I dare say a heavy or industrial clay will have left plenty of marring and other marks on the paint.

Tardis or oblitarate to remove tar, then ironx to remove the rusty iron spots, then ideally claying. A soft or hard wax is purely to protect the paint, it refers to the texture of the wax. that's all down to personal preference and makes no difference to the make of car. if you are a beginner...

depends on your methods and level of contamination in my billy ways. If it's really heavy, before it starts to dry out, I'll lightly rinse the 1st hit of tar remover then apply a 2nd layer before wiping down with a MF applicator. Typically, it's never needed on a previously protected car

Depends on the level of decontamination. Iron contamination will sit within the paint, tar will sit over the top. If you're suffering from plenty of tar spots, tar remover first then iron remover, then clay.

JD's been heading up to Essex I reckon. Went into two local Sainsbury stores, one being the 3rd biggest supermarket in the UK, and both sold out of RDS, wheel cleaner and their all purpose cleaner all on special at £2.09

Not used the sponges but can see the some good things in its use. I read some mixed reviews on them with regards to the mild not cleaning all that well, and the medium and coarse inflicting a fair bit of marring. The cloths are getting some good reviews lately. I'm awaiting delivery of the...

Just seen this on DW

To pikey for the CS high rollers to hear about! http://www.monzacarcare.com/power-drill-polishing/meguiars-g3500-da-power-system-tool/0/I personally would bother if your seriously thinking about correction. A 2nd hand da and a basic pad and polish kit won't cost too much more

Really! You wiped the floor with every one else in the polishedbliss monthly detail, now you going to make the rest of us feel inadequate with the sunflower yellow detail! Jealous, me, know chance, honest..... please come and detail my cars!?! hate to see the results when you get hold of Desire

Theses pictures, maybe Ants, I was expecting to see. Comp closed IMO. Just need to put up the rest.

Everything in the kit will work well, ideal way to start.

When you say rough to touch, is that one a non cleaned surface so using like a QD? If it still beads and sheets well when driving the roughness won't be an issue. Now don't get me wrong, I like C2v3, but I don't feel it's giving much more than the older versions of C1.5 and C2. I don't want it...

Toby. Is this the stuff you use? http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/detailing-sprays/sonax-xtreme-brilliant-shine-detailer-750ml/prod_1178.html

A great idea these, reckon they will sell very well. How long before the requests for a wax sampler starts

Everytime?

Using it as a mitt appeals to my lazy side. Plus its graded as fine so suits my needs. Have only seen the artdeshine cloth so far and wasn't keen on the idea of folding a cloth over to use on paint. Just being picky I guess. Others seem to be unknown manufacturers, probably all from the same...

There was no name for the wax sample. Let me know how long it lasts as beading was very short lived on my bonnet

Not a no no, I just didn't think they worked as well as when used with a DA

Glass polish isn't solving the problem. I have to side with YB this time round

Chemical Guys fine grade clay mitt. I'm sure it will blow me away, especially for the cost!

Tell Toby just how quick they are :eek:

The wax sample or the blind test spray sealant / quick detailer hybrid?

was just looking at the Carpro offerings as they're quite a bit cheaper, but they seem to say they are comparable to a more stronger / harsh clay rather than fine. I don't want to have to polish after using it to remove marring. I typically use a fine grade clay after tar and iron removers and...

Anyone used any of the new decontamination blocks / pads / sheets / mitts that are coming out? I think Ant was using one IIRC. Putting it simply, I hate using clay despite it being one of the most useful parts of a detail. This has caught my eye...
