    Another P21S thread

    I had not noticed no, don't spend much time on there these days. Lots of knowledge but certain things about the place can be annoying.

    Another P21S thread

    Most durable wax first, you want to lay the 476 down first, then the P21s for looks. That said after EGP I would just save the time and effort and go for the P21s, or lay the 476s down and then in a few weeks wack on the P21s.

    Road Angels

    I have had the Road Angel 2 for about 4/5 years. Blackspot have said they will just do a firmware up date to render the Laser Alert non operational. I have the Camera Locations on my TomTom and they are not as accurate as the Road Angel.

    Another P21S thread

    Looks great is easy to use, but like others have said needs applying every couple of weeks. Ideal over a sealant to give stunning looks. Most of my Concours wins where using good old P21s over AG SRP/EGP

    T-Cut Colour Fast

    The Colour Polish won't really do anything then. Not sure when the retailers are selling Double Wax and tbh I would not bother with it. Get some Saphir instead. They are just about to release another new one according to the threads on DW which is meant to sit above the Dodo Dodo in there...

    SRP is an amazing Polish for the money

    One of the most underrated products out there, people b**ch about i dusting as the use it incorrectly. Buy it in 5 litre sizes and save some cash! I would not read to much into how much protection it is giving from the beading, clean paint beads - I got rained on halfway through polishing a car...

    T-Cut Colour Fast

    Horrible stuff, if it is a scuff that will polish out use a decent polish to Polish out. The SRP will remove the colour fast if you use it after.

    Airfield Sprint Pics - March 9th 2008

    The thing I noticed with my 300mm is that you know what focal length you have to shoot at, no option to zoom so it gives you a touch more time just concentrate on taking the pic. I always found myself wanting to alter the zoom at the last second. My 70-200 hardly went back on the camera after...

    Detailing clay

    Clay should be the same, just pay a premium for it. Expensive for what you get.

    Macine polishing headlights?

    Works well, I have used cutting, polishing and finishing pads on them depending on the defects. Even on what looks to by perfect headlights a finishing polish brings them up looking even better. Start of with as mild polish first and see how it goes, even SRP on a polishing pad will do the...

    197/R27 Recaro's Not Fit For Purpose?

    Depends who supplied the material for them, I guess Reanult would have chosen the fabric being as it matches the rears.

    what to use on black plastics?

    A heat gun alone should restore the colour of plastics stand alone, has worked well on the few bits of trim I have tried it on.

    360 spin = brown trousers

    Most tyre manufacturers recommend new tyres on the back for the reason that understeer is easier to correct than oversteer. http://www.michelin.co.uk/uk/auto/auto_cons_bib_pqr_neuf.jsp Though I still would not want to run shite tyres on the front, full set of new tyres is a wise move.

    what to use on black plastics?

    Missed the important bit, after applying it, let it stand, go round all the trim and buff with a clean cloth, final buff stops the streaking people moan about the first time it rains. Also use a small amount and rub it in well, don't apply it on a really thick coat. 2 or 3 applications of well...

    what to use on black plastics?

    Autoglym Bumper Care Gel when applied properly is pretty much the most cost effective one I have found for textured trim.

    Cleaning your alloys

    Wash Car Shampoo, Wash Mitt, Sponge and and brushes for the inners. Use something like Meguiars All Purpose Cleaner or AG Engine and Machine cleaner on any stubborn dirt. Use clay on anything that is bonded one If all the above fails - Autoglym Clean Wheels - it is acid based so wheel dull the...

    Autoglym Vs Maguiars shampoo...

    The product you used despite the name is made by Turtle Wax and not the greatest. I use Einszett Leather Care http://www.einszett.co.uk/products_einszett_interior-exterior.htm If you want something leathery smelling maybe look Gliptone, though I find it more suited to older real leather seats...

    Autoglym Vs Maguiars shampoo...

    AG Shampoo is not one of there better products, cleans ok and leaves a nice finish, the lack of suds is off putting. Out of the off the Shelf Meguiars offerings there is the NXT Wash and Gold Glass Wash. The first (NXT) is quite strong and is not that wax friendly, the Gold Glass is a nicer...
