    Charging an iPhone at an event without sockets

    Could you elaborate? Just an external USB battery pack? That seems simple enough, ta. 5S and do not want added bulk over a static charging option. Three days (or four charges...).

    Charging an iPhone at an event without sockets

    Hi, Best way of charging an iPhone without the use of sockets? I've seen solar powered versions, but are they really any good? Sorry, I know you hate this, but Tom J

    Shotgun needed (Bird Sh*t)

    You know what they say, the better something is the more you look after it... MarcR I'd not bother buddy, stone chips can be easily touched in and polished up at the same time as it going in for its detail. The bird etchings will come out no issue, so that'd by my route.

    Bug removal and window cleaning?

    Amazed at LP, Ste - Rob, a decent degreaser and a brush. You know when you see photos of a detail and the detailer sprays on snow foam and then goes around the shuts etc with a brush? This.

    Imperial Review

    Looks great fella! Agree on the sealant safe question - I would presume so, as it would go hand in hand with Mint Rims. But Auto Finesse will confirm. One thing on the tyres - looks like you're using a wheel woolie - try a slightly stiffer brush. It'll help remove grime, leading to better tyre...

    Detailing Chat & Questions Thread

    I'm starting to sound like a broken record, but Hyper Wash. Still works out as the best shampoo/cleaner/snow foam in terms of dilution (and therefore cost).

    The Chris Harris thread

    I haven't watched/seen any other videos, though? No car reviews etc? TST and Evo are better than nothing I guess.

    The Chris Harris thread

    So are we ever going to get a Drive/Chris Harris video again? It's been months since anything came out, let alone anything decent.

    RDR's CS Camping Trip 5th July 2014

    Definitely pal, this just fell on a bad weekend for me (wedding in Dorking). I admit I gave false hope to TheEvilGiraffe too, as said "yes" before I'd checked the damn diary... Good fun I presume? Saw a couple of photos but not looked properly yet. Thread with photos?

    Detailing Chat & Questions Thread

    Surprised at this, fella. It's really a "wax on wax off" product, just with a remover (IPA basically) for the residue... very difficult to mess up (especially if you read the instructions TheEvilGiraffe)...

    Detailing Chat & Questions Thread

    A wash mitt won't remove waxes. A de contaminant mitt or claying will. I'd suggest a strong TFR spray to remove all traces and leave a bare surface to start.

    Imperial - the reviews thread

    Stupidly forgot to get the box from our postroom yesterday - had to wash the car for a wedding this weekend (can't be rolling up in a dirty car!!). Would have been great to use it then, but will wait until next weekend :)

    How to prepare wheels for sealant application

    I don't see any harm in using Reload as a top up for better beading, Kev?

    Best products for;

    Alloy wheels I'd go for Auto Finesse 's Imperial. Acid free and safer for your wheels. It's the test subject for this month so keep an eye on their thread further down. Metal polish wise, autosol is fine. I do find auto finesse mercury has more pull for chemical contaminants. Dash, just a...

    V6 Exhaust

    Presuming it's surface rust, I'd be tempted to use a rust remover and then polish it up with a metal polish (autosol, mercury etc).

    My TT QS

    Aye, the cover pal. The airbox is smooth on the outside, the cover is in keeping with the rest. Aren't you a different engine code anyway? Not a BAM for the 240s was it?

    My TT QS

    TomSx interesting one and you could have had mine, since I have a s2000 filter on. Mine is textured like the rest. Looks good buddy. Desperate to get my wheels refurb'd.

    BMW 335d X drive M Sport

    I don't understand the complications here. You bought some fun cars to run alongside the Alfa, so do that with a lower cost Beemer? You're trying to get an everyday work horse to be something fun and exciting. The 335d does what it does well. If you want soul, by something stupid again, like a...
