    How do I remove brake dust?

    No where near as bad or harsh as Wonder Wheels or most wheel cleaners for that matter. Autoglym Engine and Machine cleaner contains no acid, is safe enough to spray on your paintwork if you so desire. Would be my first choice on wheels.

    How to remove bird sh*t!!

    Lye a wet towel on it to pre soak it so goes soft before you try try and wipe it away. Fast Glass works but also strips any protection that may be left on your paint.

    How to remove bird sh*t!!

    Bird crap seems to etch easily into Renault paint. Try working on the area effected with a decent polish. Something like Autoglym Super Resin may sort it or you may need to step up to something like Meguiars Scratch X.

    Waffle wave towel

    Yes - I sheet the water off with a hose, and then use the waffle weave, they start to work better when it absorbs the water, they I follow up to grab the small drips etc with a normal microfiber.

    It is when you come to do any form of proper paint correction that the skill of using one is needed.

    Dodgy Reno Jack.... Near miss!

    Not good, after seeing a mates car across the road come of a standard jack, proper jack and axle stands are a must. I would never work actually under a car on a standard jack unless there was an axle stand under it to.

    AG Extra Gloss is the best lasting sealant I have found without going to the likes of Zaino. Yeap lasting protection that stands up to high temps etc, brake dust just washes off with car shampoo. AG Super Resin cleans up the wheels nicely as well before the EGP. Doing the bodywork with EGP you...

    Advice please

    Dont put it through the car wash, will do more damge than good. Wash it by hand and skip the claying if you are short of time, claying ony removes stuck on sh*te washing can not, wont make a huge amount of difference that the eye can see for the meet.

    How often? (Rich) lol

    You wont have any problems using the AG SRP, EGP and P21s more times as apart from the SRP they are all non abbrassive. You should not be doing swirl removal all the time though, if you keep getting swirls - look at your wash technique. Prevention is better then cure.

    Waxing / sealant

    :( My package has got smashed up by the courier, but top customer service from Carwashnwax - had had an email last night saying it had been returned to them and is being resent out and should be here by Friday.
  29. Rich

    Can Someone check my method? Please!

    Should be no real need for the second wash, AG SRP will clean up and streaks etc left. Meguiars Speed Glaze is not an idea product to use by hand. IMO best of going from AG SRP to Sealant.
