    What have you ordered? *Detailing*

    Nope. Needs a f**king good compounding sesh. Assuming theres no water spotting (Then a light mahine polish with P1 will sort it or something else "light") then you can just wax over it? Ive also had water spotting with C1. I dont think much of it TBQH!

    What have you ordered? *Detailing*

    C1 and other nano sealants dont work on Renault paintwork I dont think. Tried it on mine, lasted all of 5 washes I think. I know the new C1 doesnt "bead" as such and needs topping with 1.5. But on the BMWs ive applied it to it beads really really well.

    Process/Products for winter details

    Right. Dont know why people add Z6 in between coats mind. Id use tripple with the DA, although you could go with Blackhole or SRP. Id expect better results and cleaning from the Tripple though. Make sure the windows get polished with glass polish then wiped down properly, pannel wipes arent...

    Whatever you want and suits your budget matey! Clean the paint first using clay, followed by a paintwork cleaner (Auto Finesse tripple is a great one) then top with a Wax or sealant of your choice. Assuming were talking about flat white, I wouldn't worry about which wax you buy too much...

    3M Marine Wax

    Haha!! Thats £10 more from my weekly allowance I could be spending on micro machines and sweets :( Just cant convince myself that AG HD is a winter wax. Or a wax for door shuts.... Where as FK1000p, 476, possibly this 3M s**t is for exactly that. I wont even be using it on my own car.....So...

    3M Marine Wax

    Would rather have a properly s**t wax mate. Will be using it for door shuts as well, maybe wheels. Plus HD wax is like £5-10 more expensive.

    3M Marine Wax

    Anyone used this s**t? Need a durable wax. My friends have stolen 476 and FK1000p from me so need to buy some more "s**t but durable" wax. Always wondered about 3M marine wax. Anyone know if it compares?

    Prep Properly. (PPPPPP). Clay, iron X etc. use something like AF Tripple or Super Resin Polish to clean the paint then topped with something durable of your choice. FK1000p for example. Could take it one step further and invest in something like AF tough coat or Zaino Z8 so you can quickly re...

    Not sure, I suppose so. I do prefer the feel of a damp cloth to a dry one.....when moving it across the paintwork.

    Detailing Chat & Questions Thread

    Heres a question - winter prep. Option 1: Full decontamination, full machine polish with P1, apply C1, top up with C1.5 over winter months. (Bearing in mind C1 is f**king s**t on Clio paint when it comes to water behavior). Option 2: Full decontamination, full machine polish with P1...

    Auto Finesse Avalanche

    Yer its pretty decent. Certainly dilutes well and clings. Wouldn't say it cleans amazingly well but Ive not tried stronger dilutions yet, need some time to mess about with the s**t.

    No mate. I have 4 Uber yellow which I use for company cars and 2 Mammoths. I wash them in the washer with no detergent and the machine spins f**k out of them so they are not far off dry, but still damp (You couldnt ring water from them in this state). Then I put them in a clear container with a...

    Detailing Chat & Questions Thread

    I wash mine (4 yellow and 2 mammoth) in the washing machine, no detergent, 30 deg wash. I dont dry them either, keep them in a box with the lid on so they are always lightly damp as I find they work better that way. The washing machine spins f**k out of them and gets them to the point where they...

    Invest in some Tripple C camber bolts while youre at it to get those front wheels tucked under the arches.

    Try something like this: http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/pre-wax-cleaners/auto-finesse-tripple-all-in-one/prod_893.html Will clean the paintwork, hide marring and small swirl marks and add a little protection. Will also add some gloss to the paintwork. Its good stuff. Apply tripple with a foam...

    p**n buffering in HD. Requires the more rammage. Just wanted to prove to people my penis was bigger really. Thought 8GB was on its limits especially with metro 2033.

    Winter wax

    Yer. Dont make me state the obvious :) Just needs curing time thats all. Second coat can be applied a week later when you wash it, or it can sit in the garage for 24 hours and you can simply dist down and re apply.

    Ive seen IBM mate, I cant apply -Ive got a 2-2. I'm still kicking myself about the interview. I'm really annoyed it went so bad as it would have been an awesome role, especially for a grad. Some people think they were playing the old good cop bad cop persona s**t with me as sometimes happens...
