I agree with Atouba. My V-maxx are awesome :)
Although they do need setting up correctly..My car almost jump out of the rollers today as they need setting up correctly! :o
Oh and poorboys is good but so is planet polish wheel seal and shine.
Today I used Planet Polisih Wheel Seal & Shine then a couple of layers of poorboys on the front...il see how that goes. Although I ahve a split CV boot so that wheel will be fucked after a while anyway :(
Thats the 3rd in a...
Yep thats what I found too about interior..arches/shuts and under the "hood" is where I use it..just incase the foam from the others runs into anything I dont want it too.
My engine bay is a mess though..spent a few minutes trying to clean it up today and just couldnt be arsed! spruced it up a...
Great more bits to try out! Thanks Russ! :( ;)
I want to find a better/cheaper APC then the Megs stuff. Daisy from tesco is "okay" on the engine but doesnt foam up at all even in a spray bottle. I like to see foam for some reason..makes if seem like its working!
476 id say...but Russ has just been talking to me about 845 which is easier to apply and lasts "almost" as long.
845 is a liquid wax whereas 476 is normal wax and if left on too long can be a git to get off (like I found out today! :o)
G101 seems VERY good. Bought a sample and tried it out today. Might have to invest in some more. Only thing is I dont have a rep around here I dont think?? Any ideas??
Dont say that..il buy more s**t I dont use then!
I bought some Heritage Wax a few months ago and have never used it...I have no idea why I bought it other then it was £9 (on the DW offer section I got it)
That seems like a sealant type wax.
Aye I put a bit on the bonnet..f**ked off to do the coilie up a few mill (took 2 mins as wheels were already off) then got carried away and wanted to clean the arches on mine..went back 10 mins later and it was a right git to get off!
Lesson learnt though!
It is annoying yes.. but I now get into the habit of making sure I have enough pipe free and pull it out of the way. Although my PW hose is only the standard short Karcher one and I do forget about it sometime! :o
It sounds really silly but i havent got the hose caught for months now!...I have...
Thats just pure f**king laziness :);) *
* I only waxed my bonnet today as I had spent the day doing the old dears MG as well as doing my coilovers and i was f**king kanckered! :o
^^ What Russ said!
End of the day dude everyone will tell you a product that is awesome/they like.
Best thing you can do is try stuff out and see how you get on :)
edit
Although it is worth listening to people who have used a range of products and can offer a bit of advice/guidance.
Only thing i hate about colli is it smells f**king rank! Although it IS very good and long lasting :)
Used it twice today..on my old dears MG TF...(Which Russ im gonna post some pics up soon as there are some "rum old" marks UNDER the paint. its odd as buggery!) and on my Monaco (only did the...
For over the winter though it wouldnt be worth it IMO. You'd be better off getting a small pot of 476

Then when the weather picks up try out the rainforest rub. The blue velvet is locked in the fridge now and...
I thought as much..I have spent many an evening floating around on DW and looking at different products ..onyx is supposedly 30% or something and zymol carbon "Contains 37% No.1 Yellow Brazilian Carnauba Wax".
I still need to understand what the carnuaba in the wax does. I thought it made it...
Ive got that nice job to do on mine when the weather gets good again...couldnt be arsed this year but im going to do it next year...will take a while me thinks!
My bumper is horrible! :o
It never shows up on photo's though :)
henry they mean many of the dodo products aint very long lasting. TBH over the winter I use collinites 476 then when the weather gets nice I use my other waxes :)
I have recently tried some poorboys nattys blue and also have some onyx on the way.
@ Russ
Does the dodo porducts state what precentage of carnuaba they have in them?? I couldnt find it out anywhere??
On my monaco I used Chemical Guys Wet Mirror Finsish and Somee Dodo Blue Velvet...Gave me this
And this was just after Blue Velvet a few motnsh later (and some SRP/EX-P Sealant)
