    I've not suggested you said it was a poor product. AF Revive is certainly not a poor product either. That's not the comparison here. And no arguments on detailing products tending to be over priced, but people pay for quality and it's a captured market. You can apply the same discussion to...

    Agreed Kev. Working out on cost per ML, yes, it's very very expensive (£1.53 plays £0.03 for AF Revive). But factor in you'll use more per application of non-permanents, you'll do it at least every 8 weeks, they're more messy and time consuming to apply (in my opinion) and factor in the time you...

    Still confuddled. Are you saying it's too expensive, or you need more because you'd do more cars? If so, think they do a 50ml bottle for detailers! So that'd be 3+ cars.

    The next iPhone/iPad; speculation thread.

    You've got a 5 and won't use the 4G. You've got an iPad that, yes, might be slow and heavy, but what do you honestly use it for that needs anything more? Ergo, MBP.

    Confused as to why fella. That'd either last you several decades (well, actually it wouldn't as it has a shelf life), or you'd spend two years applying to every car in the street! Manufacturers would struggle to get through 500ml!

    Depends on your opinion of "little"... My entire car was C4'd, including the arches and under the bonnet. Still going strong two years on. How much semi-permanent trim restorer would you have got through in that time? Four times worth and C4 is what, double the price?

    Audi TT 2.7T RS, The Unkown Prototype.

    First thing that came to mind when I read; "... though 20:20 hindsight now helps identify parts like the Alcantara steering wheel (fitted with TT aluminum-trimmed airbag) and Alcantara Recaro racing seats similar to what was fitted in cars like the special RS 4 Sport built for the 2000 Essen...

    As above, Leeroy. Nanolex IIRC, still got the packet and instructions, so Andy or I will sort it. But for now; http://www.polishedbliss.co.uk/acatalog/nanolex-trim-rejuvenator-cat21.html

    your recommendations

    Bit too vague that, Ben. So you'll get a lot of "search" replies. What have you currently got, what do you currently do, what's your budget, what are you trying to achieve...?

    Detailing Chat & Questions Thread

    Are you looking for correction Dan? If so, Menz 203s is very versatile. But I would personally go for an AIO, based on what you do/time you have. Tripple will make the paint pop out at the customer and make it look like you've spent days on the car. Seal it up nice with something like AGHD or...

    I don't see why not. Gentle cleaner... try an inconspicuous area first, Andy.

    It doesn't but there's no harm using a cheap lube, such as the Demon Shine above or shampoo as old timer Brand86 has suggested.

    Most decent detailing stores. Type it into Google and you'll find it.

    Lightning Cables

    Search. There's a thread that Rich-D posted in, with a link. I bought a set of three standard length ones that work just fine, but did note a couple of their other items were 2-3m ones.

    Go to advice blurb is; Bilt Hamber Autoclay with diluted Demon Shine as lube. Great clay, cheap lube (can be had in ASDA for great cheeeaaaapppness).

    Eraser is good, or GTechniq panel wipe. I4D Uber is a great towel. I have a few ;) MF pads, just go for Megs ones, Andy. Same with the foam applicators. It's fine as a mild clay. There are slightly better quality ones out there, but I tend to find (other than poly clays) they are much of a...

    RDH's R32

    Keep thinking the same about the Panzer over a Z4MC. But then I go out in a friend's classic (soft top) and realise Winter driving with the roof down is the only way to roll. In your case "Riding through the snow, with a full lock slide going on, la la la la laaaa, la la la la laaaaaa".

    Then I wouldn't bother with a 5S, Andy. Unless you really want one.

    Slate grey air is needed now. Question is, 4G or not. Not sure I need it, but BEN172 needs to call prices!!

    RDH's R32

    Faux by fours will go up in value over the winter months, RWD performance saloons will no doubt drop (or at least demand for them will). I'd sell and buy around about now.

    My Birthday Present to Myself - AMG Content!

    The wheels were the first thing I noticed and liked. Love the look of these cars and the wheels look like Mk1 Focus RS wheels, which look great, in my eyes. Cracking car, enjoy!
