Here I am coming second in the 2008 Australian Grand Prix;

PM'd.

I am awesome.

Confirmed. /beardy

Welcome and congratulations on being one of the very few CS members that might be able to get insurance through Chris Knott.

It's very good, but you can't see a pretty pink colour change ;)

I'm JD. However, JD has no time for his own car currently, and as much as I hate passing on detailing business, I would get in touch with DA's contact (migilor details).

Holy s**t boy! At least you have a product that works though!

For the newbies above, ONR stands for Optimum No Rinse and basically (as Toby has said) means a hoseless wash.

As am I Jim. As mentioned, I'm really not a believer in this sort of thing, but that thread really does show it's worth. If and when I get the chance to attend Audis in the Park etc, this could be useful!

s**t. The end. x

And that included me, up until now! http://www.detailingworld.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=190214 Quite incredible! Doesn't mean I will be going to it, as I have access to the necessary equipment, but certainly an impressive outcome!

Glad I wasn't the only one...

Ah nice!

Oh? All OK?

Nice :) PM on it's way buddy, no time this week, perhaps next?

Yet to find a product that can solve this :( Looks good chap - all the better for the fact that it's well protected :) The dirt must have just slid off :)

APC? Not sure on that one chap. That will be stripping off most waxes/LSPs that are on the car if you do that every wash... I think you're thinking of snow foam :) For a standard wash, I pressure wash, snow foam, clean wheels, clean body work with the 2BM, open hose techniq to get rid of most...

Looks a tad slower than I was expecting to be honest. You weren't whizzing around A/E last night were you?

Great watch. Although a supposed "petrol head" just walked passed and said I was sad.

Nothing wrong with that chap :) you weren't to know. You will need to get rid of last stage protection (LSPs) every 6 months to apply a fresh layer.

I prefer the shorter pile towels for pat drying tbh. But the one linked above is superb. I have three of those still and quite a few of these; http://www.i4detailing.co.uk/acatalog/Miracle_Dryer.html Agreed.

The problem with the 2.XX Karchers, is they are sealed units. We bought one, it failed, we were told to buy another as the motors couldn't be replaced. My advice, buy 3.XX and above. Means you won't have to buy twice if the motor fails, as these are removable and can therefore be changed.

Chris, I missed your last question pal, apologies! Karcher are a very well known brand. They are pretty reliable from all accounts. I have one and find it perfectly acceptable! There are quite a few other makes out there, like Nilfisk that quite a number of people are also getting good reviews...

Not really talking about going through buddy, more how much paint you remove each time. The art of machine polishing is to remove swirls and UDS with the least amount of paint depth loss possible.

You will have polished the previous sealent off buddy.

Ah a MF mitt user, like Richy. I can't stand them, but each to their own ;) As above, depends how far you want to go, but a decent mitt, two buckets, a decent shampoo (megs gold class is perfectly acceptable) and a decent drying towel. The one you've linked to is awesome!

Lol, missed that one. Can't even remember what the hell it is now?! As above. Get a pro to fix the car's paint, then buy the right equipment to maintain it, i.e. washmitt, two buckets, etc.
