Is Gyeon wet coat a good base for applying a wax on top of? Dont normally wax so but since I got a bunch off someone on here I'm down to give some a try
Got this stuff from ECP when it was about £5 a bottle. Tested it on my new (to me) car after a spray decon only and its beading its nuts off 3 weeks later. Considering Meguiars is over £20 a bottle now, this is a total bargain and wished I had bought 4 😂
Any advice on the whole 'buying the same product just rebranded' situation? Obviously none of us want to be buying the same stuff if it's no different with our hard earned £
I understand. It was a totally fair comment as I said. Not disputing you clearly know your stuff! I was just a bit taken aback is all 😂 .
I honestly love this section and detailing in general. Since changing cars it's why I've stuck with this forum. It's full of seriously helpful people...
I can also testify to this (not that you need me to 😂). Found a video and tried it next time I was cleaning the car. Was really impressive! Almost didnt need a drying towel
Well, I can only apologise. As I said, I was quoting another forum that I had read. This is what this section is all about, is it not?
I get where you are coming from but instead of saying how much you dislike a section, why not make it a better place?
Nobody knows everything as I think I've...
CarPro Perl - what ratios do you guys use for interior bits? I've got nearly a litre mixed up of 1:3 so hoping that will be good. Gave the whole interior a go with some interior shampoo from autoglym. Brought everything up nice and smells good. Just want to dress it all now :)
I consulted a bmw based forum on just this question. I got the following answer give or take:
BMW paint isnt necessarily hard. Some even argued it was soft. I guess that's a matter of opinion!
One thing that was mentioned was that it does have quite a thick clear coat which is very reassuring...
That was my hope after someone posted a pic of theirs tbh. It's a 'clean and shiny' branded one and I was under the impression theirs were Das just rebranded. Who knows 🤪
Cheers for the tips. I've only got a big one so larger panels first! The swirls arent that bad as it's only 4 years old but shes seen some car washes that's for sure! 🙃
Think I was just worried about anything flying onto the panel. I'll give the bonnet a go with megs ultimate compound and a nice calm pad and see how I go. Mondays job!
On the topic of machine polishing. How do you guys feel about polishing outside?
Not got access to the usual garage so it's the driveway. Obviously full decon first then just go for it? Still need to test pad and compound combo. Would it be wise to just prep the bonnet and try and achieve...
