    30ml wax panel pots

    Will do a Clio 4 or 5 times if you apply in the correct thin layers. The softer waxes spread very well

    french racing blue - best wax?

    Colour charging doesn't really make them colour specific I put 2 layers of orange crush on my silver golf and it didnt turn orange, made it a little glossy but that was it. It didn't make my ly 182 any more orange, although it did look good.

    french racing blue - best wax?

    99.9% of waxes aren't colour specific. Comes down to personal preference, budget, expected durability, what will be applied under it etc etc. Car colour plays a small part on choosing a wax. What do you want from it?

    Autoglym Perfect Palm

    For the price, stick to the megs applicators and get 2 for the price of the 1 Ag When I looked at them the foam finger part was just too soft

    Spraying front grill and fog light surrounds black....

    I sprayed my fog surrounds myself, was fairly simple to do. You just need to keep sanding it back and slowly refining the grade paper until its smooth plastic. Plastic primer then spray as you would normally, but if spray shack can do them at £30 save yourself the hassle and have it done properly

    AF Hide - Leather Cleaner and Leather Conditioner

    i can't name one horse rider that would allow a saddle that's typically £500+ get old and grimey, nor does our sofa's. i've not used any other leather cleaners so not comparing, just commenting on my findings

    Recommend me a polishing/finishing pad

    I wouldn't personally, any risk to damage the glue that bonds the velcro to the foam could be quite serious if it comes apart when using it on a panel. I simple use a little washing up liquid and massage it into the face of the foam and lightly rinse it out. come out as new afterwards.

    Help me prove an old man wrong!

    the problem with chemicals going into a take is the affect it may have on the natural bacteria within the tank and weaken / reduce by way of cleaning them almost. A normal household can affect this bacteria by simply using a little too much bleach when cleaning for example. As mentioned they...

    Recommend me a polishing/finishing pad

    I'd be tempted to opt for the black hex pad, had some really good results with it over the softer pads like the red and blue. Use it as my go to for finishing compounds, cleansers and applying powerseal. It's just a really versatile pad IMO

    Best product for maintaining the gloss shine?

    Autoglym do their own QD although I didnt find it anything special. Any QD will bring back that just waxed look. Others will add a little extra protection, improve beading. Depends what you want from it and what wax / sealant you use now, and budget. Z8, finale and basics of bling, spray...

    Will this actually work? (Halfrauds content)

    the shampoo bottles dont give foam, just a soapy solution. the same will all of them supplied with karcher, nilfisk etc the lances on pressure washers have different fittings dependent on brand, most snow foam lances have changeable fittings so you can convert it to fit for a couple £. you...

    Electric Buffer....

    if youve got it in your kit, polish / cleanse the paint with super resin polish, then seal it with extra gloss protection. probably the best of the autoglym products. read through the stickied threads at the topmof this section

    A good wax for arctic blue?

    nattys blue and purple haze are both waxes, so use one or the other. never used nattys but PH would still be my preference

    A good wax for arctic blue?

    SRP then purple haze instead of EGP. EGP doesnt last all that long, doesnt look much either, purple haze will blow it away

    Best product to remove...

    AF obliTARate works just as well but can be bought in smaller quantities if you're not wanting the full 5litres

    Should be fine, the colour loading is only very slight at best and would need multiple coats to notice anything other than a glossy finish

    Best product for restoring exhaust tips?

    What did you apply it with? If they're that bad then whatever you use you'll more than likely need to use it with wire wool
