I would use a spray sealant that you can use on wet paint - Prima Hydro or Duragloss Aquawax.

Exhausts on the 182 are borderline .....

Chavy Bright Blue thing ....

You should not really a degreaser every time you wash the wheels, polish and seal them and soap and water will be fine.

AG Tar and Adhesive Remover is worth a shot.

Recaros

Got my name down for some, mainly because it doe not look as artifically coloured as the other waxes which was my main turn off. As said finger tips are fine, on a warm day placing it in the sun is enough. I would go for Purple Haze tbh.

I applied my Concours like that a few times, found it was using a lot more product than warming it up with my fingers in the pot to make it spreadable and applying a nice thin coat with a foam hand pad.

I apply all waxes by foam hand pad, warm the hard waxes up with my fingers first till they go spreadable. The Saphir is great, no real looks advantage over Onyx but should be more durable.

To much danger of marring if you do trap something under it.

I have one of the trial pots of it, again like the Blue Velvet was put of with how hard it is in the pot so have decided not to use it on my 182. May try some on the 306 with the Zymol Titanium fails.

Gilmour Pre Foam with Megs Hyper Wash Eurow Lambswool Mitts Aquagleam Filtered Water Wheels - Megs APC or AG Engine and Machine Cleaner I only use water blades on cars I really don't care about!

Some people are using foam and rinse to actually was the car, not convinced myself. Gilmour works of the hose. Pre rinse with the Gilmour Wash 2 bucket method and a few Lambswool Mitts Another Mitt dedicated to wheel duty Rinse with filtered water Most marring comes from the drying stage ...

Big thread on DW about it, as much lot's of people will flame me for it, IMO Onyx is still the best wax out there for the money, just get it from Swissvax direct. Maybe look into the Dodo Range, the Purple Haze comes close, shame it is like using colour magic.

Fingers crossed it will polish out.

Phew lucky! Welcome and enjoy.

Gilmour is for use on a hosepipe, you need a proper foam type lance to attach tot he pressure washer.

Stalk still works, the scroll wheel on the back allows you to skip tracks on a chosen playlist

I have one of the Pre Gateway Densions - the Icelink Plus which works well.

Depends how much you use, I have done at least 4 (one being Mustang) with my bottle and still have plenty left. Once that pad is primed I only seem to need to add a tiny blob extra per panel.

250ml will easily be enough to do a whole car with plenty left over.

#16 is my only exception to my sealants or waxes by hand rule - The only way I can get it nice and thin is by machine.

Menzerna Intensive Polish and a cutting pad for sure if it is anything like the 182 Mark sorted. Though if it is really bad you may need to step up to something even more potent !

Rather the MOT too

Good looking kit, though in some Buckets, Decent Wash Mitts and good drying towel and you will be well equipped - as long as as others have said that the paint is in good condition.

Used to be my winter wax of choice, not used it for years though. Works fine applied thinly - PC and 4 inch spot pad work well!

172 Cup lose the gash seats for some Buckets, job done.

The distructions say 1/2 - 1 oz per car and it is 16oz bottle IIRC. You will get way more than 16 cars out of it. You would be better using a foam hand pad to apply the wax as it is easier to get a thin even coat with, a cloth should not have caused any problems though.

Looks a bit Ripspeed to me ...
