    I thought it would, very odd for TC to die off that quickly. one of the great things with TC is that after a wash provided the surface is still resisting contaminants and dirt, it's as quick to lay down another layer as it is to give it a wipe over with a quick detailer. So get another layer on...

    Quick Question

    Im sure a soft top would have very little iron or tar contaminants. as said an all purpose cleaner, i used GT W2, and a stiff brush will suffice in cleaning. have a look at the range available on i4detailing

    BluePoint Machine Polisher.

    use the least abrasive polish and pad combo to start. i doubt youll get much use from the hex yellow, orange green and white i use most often

    once a panel is dirty enough, the dirt alone is enough to stop the beading of any wax and sealant. boots of clios are terrible for it. wash it with a wax safe shampoo and report back. id be surprised if it doesnt bead again.

    Typically 2 and a half, 3 months. how does it bead after washing? tripple will have a small effect on durability not nothing too bad

    What have you ordered? *Detailing*

    I would typically agree with you, but my last order i placed an order late one night, confirmation email the next morning and delivered the day after. A real improvement over previous experiences. maybe he just doesn't like you, as they are occassionally found lurking in here

    ...and the best air freshner is?

    remind me next time I see you and you can try out chemical guys stripper scent or new car smell. don't last ages but a quick spray in the air vents after a wash see's you alright I didn't find the california car scent pots to last all that long. Must be the smell of wet dog, or at least wet kit...

    Black not black enough!

    tripple and tough coat both by auto finesse, and an awesome combo, looks great, so easy to use you cant go wrong. even if you over apply its still easy to remove and leave a slick finish. werkstat jett is another spray sealant thats not fussy, very easy to use and looks good, similar...

    Black not black enough!

    it wont last all that long on its own, and probably a little less due to the small amount of wax within it. use a normal wax ie not a solvent based wax hybrid. or a non fussy sealant like toughcoat, werkstatt tripple leaves an awesome finish

    BluePoint Machine Polisher.

    3m or menzerna polishes and compounds are typically the same thing. know I'm even more certain you need to read the guides before you even pick up the polisher

    Basic detailing gear for a black car.....

    i understand not wanting to spend too much money, but if all his hard work washes away with the lightest of drizzle, its not realy gonna be worth his time or effort. false economy even the cheapest of waxes or sealants woukd be money well spent
