    What's your favourite colour to detail?

    Reds. Metallic. Racing blue is awful. Most unflattering colour there is IMO.

    How to get the best result

    Onto the protection then. Wax or sealant. FFS. Even bigger topic. Sealant, crisp look, usually sealants dont bead all that well, more durable usually,often cheaper than wax. Wax, Wet look, usually bead very well, most are pretty durable but you have to spend £40+ IMO to get one thats good...

    How to get the best result

    Next bit I guess is about protection/polishing. Big can of worms here. Everyone does it different and theres hundreds of products out there that do the same thing. Heres my 5p though. I assume youre not going to polish by machine. Firstly, Clay the car. Do this once every 6 months. I do mine...

    OK, Ill throw my personal opinion of products/methods you could use. Im assuming you want to know the best methods too? This post might get a little sloppy, I hope this is the advice youre after..... Get your wash/drying technique right first. 2 Buckets. One for shampoo, the other for rinsing...

    How to get the best result

    Best result? Clean paint - Clay, iron x, tardis etc. Multiple hours/days of machine polishing to remove paint defects, and refining to give the best possible finish. Prime Strong to pull remaining dirt from paintwork. Decent wax.

    How easy to cause damager with machine polisher...?

    True dat. I remember Pauls 8 million layers of Zaino Z9000 or whatever it was. And his astra vxr thread. I knew exactly why he did it as soon as I opened it. I somewhat doubt he did go to the extent he said he did, but imagine how that looks to prospective customers :) Dom (Dodo Juice) also...

    How easy to cause damager with machine polisher...?

    Thats a point - Read into it properly well before you have a go yourself. Guides on DW by Dave KG. Vids on youtube.

    How easy to cause damager with machine polisher...?

    Lew is right, he is more precatious than me though. If the previous owner hacked away at it with t cut, or has polished it with a machine numerous times with an agressive compound then it could be very thin in places. Personally, id get a DA and hack away at it anyway. Simply because Id want a...

    Chemical Guys - Strong Wash (Bug Bugger)

    Its s**t. Diluted snowfoam, or citrus snowfoam will remove bugs quite well I find. Use mine in a sprayer.

    Which Wash Mitt?

    Mine comes today. Whoop. Heres my views on Mitts; (Note, I dont look after my mitts) Halfrauds Grey Lambswool Mitt - Bit small perhaps, but cheap, easily accessible to people who dont roder from the net. Long lasting (I have one thats 5 years old now). No issues with this one in fact its a...

    Wait for other peoples responses too pal. Zymol Carbon is one of my favorites, Vics red is not far behind. I own more expensive waxes but I will not be replacing them (except Zymol Glasur which is p**n). If youve not waxed before, lay down a glaze, polish or pre cleaner first, and then wax...

    auto glym tyre dressing

    Ken, is that his name? Kenneth. 303 Aerospace, or Zymol Vinyl. Tyres has to be Blackfire. If youre a tight t**t then Megs Gold class from halfrauds is good. Really want to try pneu, is it worth it?

    Need a wx < £50 for titanium silver.

    Yeah, is it a wax you defo want? Werkstat Trigger Jett or whatever its called is pretty good. Spray, Wipe. Done. Could get a layer of Werkstatt Prime down before you do that would clean the paintwork up a bit.
