    Detailing Chat & Questions Thread

    Magi foam is the thickest SF though and they did hang the formula. Simply gumming up the gauze? Can be a bit crap. Maybe try another once your magifoam finishes.

    See the whole reason I started using the 2 snowfoam method was to aid washing and less friction on the surface. Snowfoam. PW off. Snowfoam and with mitt and 2bm wash car properly. Especially is the shampoo isn't massively sudsy anyway, I never found lather to suds that much or have that much...

    Hi mate! Does the nozzle have 2 settings? Stream and spray kinda thing? It is more jet due to the type of product imo that's why I always spray on to the MF cloth.

    BH is pretty much the only clay worth buying surely. Sonus was good but they changed it. Zaino is the only thing close but expensive. Grab the soft one. I've never needed a medium clay. BH don't make a bad product. It's the whole reason they don't release a lot, everything is made in their...

    plenty of threads on DW just search for matte in the titles and click studio only. Plenty there. Swissvax is one of the better ways to go. I know Nanolex brought out a range but the pre cleanser from SV restores so much lost gloss and depth to matte paint. RS500 on DW is a good read to see the...

    Best product you've ever used

    Really good product that. Not the greatest clay lube I found. Cheapest and best seemed to be Autosmart spray wax. Best product? Hmmmm... I think Hydro2 would have to be up there. One of the only wonder products in detailing. "Iron X changed the game". Original C1 is probably my favourite...

    Yeah whoever told you that doesn't understand fallout. That's like trying to wash overspray off.

    Yeah throw away any other QDs and order done and dusted mate. Midnight sun is a nice luxury feeling wax.

    Decent Upholstery in Glasgow

    That's pretty awesome. Transcal are sorta expensive compared with some others.

    Decent Upholstery in Glasgow

    Contact Transcal in Livingston chap. They're one of the best in the UK, not that local but i've yet to see anything bar quality from them.

    Buy some CarPro reload for White mate, make sure the paint is prepped nicely and you'll get the best from white. 2 cars i've done with reload after cleansing etc... http://www.cliosport.net/threads/carpro-ironx-tarx-hydro02-reload-vs-octavia-vrs-bleeding-content.773303/...

    Wax for Blackgold 182

    Fusso does fill slightly but so do lots of waxes. Lusso filled a lot due to the oils also. 53' is good. 50/50 is a great wax, sadly it comes in a metal tin, I simply cannot go back to that. Fusso had such cool packaging but the tin let it down. As did a lot of other things.

    Summer/show wax.

    It sorta is Dave. It's not going to move things along from the likes of shield or BOS that much. As we know know wax has kinda hit it's peak imo. In regards perfection anyway. Z8 had a slight issue with being solvent heavy and could be detrimental to a conventional wax, Z2 is designed to work...

    Summer/show wax.

    BOS was a great shout for Summer. Lusso Oro is a favourite of mine. Blackfire is stunning to use, again doesn't last. Vantage I now love the more I use it, again it's not boutique or the most durable (I know that means nothing) I wouldn't use Z8 over BOS, i'd want either a caranuba based QD...

    MK1 Octavia VRS, Lemon Yellow

    I love it Jason. It's great for the kind of car that it is. Oh and Yellow is for heroes, although that Yellow always looked too pale for me. I like the plans. Exhaust isn't a bad idea if a part needs replaced anyway. I really like it.

    The girlfriend strikes again! Crash No.3

    How do you even do that in a Clio! She's obviously taken something uber right but that's verging on retardedness. Clio is tiny. At least you know never to buy anything bigger for her. Or any car.

    Cheers Dave! I'm on it. Only want the prime though. Jet is old school stuff now.

    Just one or the other really unless you want sore arms. Revitalise will leave a great clean base then just fire Vantage over it. How swirly is your paint?

    Detailing Chat & Questions Thread

    Re the speedo cluster, it would need removed and polished like perspex. You could try hand polishing it in place. Re vantage, do a proper prep and use a glaze or cleanser by hand then apply vantage with a wax mate or similar. I sometimes give my applicator a dusting of quick detailer or spray...

    What trim detailer to use?

    The upper grille isn't black texture it's like painted grey so it won't take a trim product. I always tell people to spray the upper and the lower ones. The upper one always looks faded because it's grey.

    Pretty much. Even cleansed paint followed by ipa/eraser wipedown. In 90% of cases it's used over something else. No need to cover fees guys happy to help out sone forum members and let's others trial something without buying a bigger bottle.

    No problem. Just PM your address guys and i'll send the first 5 out. It can be diluted 1:1 or with a favourite detailing spray to trial. Also can be used over cleansers and glazes etc. Maximum durability would come from bare paint like all products.

    If you guys just want to PM me your addresses I'll get some sorted and posted. Dave Craig mentioned he's convinced I'll love 15'. I have zero issues with 14', I just think it needs properly buffed when applying etc. I done 2 layers on that Golf R and it's a pretty dark colour! Can you link me...
