I try and do the paint, then the glass and then wheels all in one go and then bin that piece. If I have only done the paint with a bit I keep it for glass and wheels, but no would not to re use it on the paintwork.

If you drop the clay bin it.

To do any real paint correction the Menzerna Range by machine gets my vote to.

As important as the amount of lube is the fact that the clay is soft when you use it. Either of the above can result in causing marring to the paint.

Keep it in air tight contanier after use and it lasts ages after you have opened it. As long as you have no opened a bar it will last a fair while, I have some bars here that are 2 years old.

Never had a problems creating lots of suds and foam with Meguiars Shampoo Plus or Hyper Wash, Sonax Gloss Shampoo or Duragloss Wash so they are worth a look into. Others such as Swissvax Car Bath or Einzett Perls are not as soapy. You are better off with a proper metal polish for the exhaust.

Black Gold of course ;) When ordering mine the only other colour I considered was Liquid Yellow Always wanted a Flame Red or Monaco Blue 172 though. Glacier White would be my current colour choice if I was ordering a 197 or Megane. Though I do also like Mercury Grey on the 225.

I order new MFs with every order, it is a terrible obsession !

The 5 inch Menzerna ones are a great middle ground size wise.

lol !

I get through the 6-8 pads per car as well. Some of the harder pads die after a few uses. Most of mine live on and on though.

460 miles across Dartmoor this weekend, neither the AG or Black Wow are beading water anymore, need to see the car in the light but both look gone !

Nice work. Sometimes even for me it is too cold !

Hair Dryer to heat it, Autoglym Tar and Adhesive Remover any of the left overs.

Mix and match - limiting yourself to one product range will never get you the best results on every area of the car IMO. Look outside the 3 you mention as well.

The AG stuff is as nasty on the seals, paint and plastic as any of the others.

There are ways to polish out scratches from glass using to specialist mops and a drill, and compounds for the task - www.frost.co.uk sell a kit. There is a problem though in removing the scratches you will deform the glass and chances are it will look worse than the scratches do,

It's not that cold yet no, but cold enough to have to scrape twice this week lol

But the question is how much does it fix and how much does it fill!

Name of the polish would be handy and I am sure a few of us on here can advise how to sort it.

Polish will remove them easily.

LOL Jokers! Very simple I fill 2 10 litre buckets and use them to rinse the car.

I have had mine since early in the year, use 20 litres per wash and it is still going strong.

Depends on the weather re dry times. I very rarely polish tbh, yeap just QD after. If I was to polish I would just allow it to dry then polish, I would not QD.

LOL - Looks like I will end up with both when they get the unlock sorted - doh !

He needs the 16" version.
