I’m looking for a smart watch, predominantly to track my running so it needs GPS. However, I’ve been told that payments, visual maps, offline music and even a torch are just some of the options now available. Does anyone have a running watch they swear by which has all the above?

The trouble with steam is it can get into places even high pressure water can't. I'd stick to what you know and spray with degreaser, go at it with brushes and MFs, then respecting leccy areas, jet it down.

A bit of a bump but thought I’d ask in here. I used to be able to play a playlist from my phone on my Sonos beam in one room from Spotify (in the Sonos app) while also listening another playlist on my phone/headphones. This no longer appears to work just at a time when I’d really like white...

It's the usual old adage of who repairs it. I had a smart repair on a daily which looked immaculate for four years until I sold the car. When I did the same on a new to me vehicle, it lasted 12 months before looking shabby. Talk to them about guarantees, former work, expectations or even back...

I'd guess he's asking whether a leather smart repair is a long or short term solution, i.e. is he going to have to recover the seats in a few miles meaning he should look at another car...?

Thanks mate. I'll test on a small area as is wise at first and report back.

What was the use case mate? Already clouded up and used to restore clarity? I'm really trying to avoid inflicting any more damage, hence wanted to go down the fill or seal route.

I seem to recall it's highly abrasive and great for misted up screens or faded headlights. I need a finer grade polish to avoid further damage.

Hi folks, frustratingly I made an error of judgement and wiped some condensation off the TVR's rear screen with a less than ideal cloth. It's left a load of marring which is really offputting when driving at night with car headlamps highlighting my error. What would be the best option here? If...

@Gally I've seen lots of Chinese companies advertising this stuff. Can't quite work out why you'd need to also apply a self levelling ceramic coat on top. I can see it going horribly wrong, but intrigued to try it all the same. @Danith where did your guy get it from?

Which part of the products performance do you mean? It lasts longer than 3 weeks, so durability is approx double that of the above mentioned dedicated product. It beads in heavy rain meaning I don't use my wipers. Yes, it's not as good as G5 or Soft99 Glaco, but it's wet and forget every few...

They videos suggest durability of three weeks. TBH that feels really poor, given I could spray and jet wash more easily using a product like WetCoat.

Thank god the steering wheel buttons are no longer haptic. f**king stupid idea.

Gyeons offering is superb. The only issue is you need to dry the vehicle. Since installing a water softener with 0PPM water, I like to leave it without toweling down, so looking to get some Adams shampoo which you can leave.

If it's Autoglym stuff you'll want it to dwell overnight*. If it's AutoSmart Tardis, 5mins dwell time does the same thing. *don't do this - just underlining the point.

I also use the Glaco stuff. It's in a really easy to use applicator - undo the cover, spread across the screen in circular motion, jet wash off. Dry, apply the sealant, buff. It's lasted a good year on a daily VW, I've just reapplied before Winter.

Why do you need a lawnmower, haven't you got a moat?

Must be due to less heat generated by the missing cylinders.

Hang on, didn't you drive yours into a river recently?

Doesn't help a foggy rear screen on a renowned leaky car!

Good shout. It’s been a while since I’ve used that. I’ll order some.

I need something ultra hydrophobic that’s plastic clear friendly. My rear screen isn’t heated and coming into the cooler months it makes it impossible to see out of until well into my journey. Any suggestions?

You love it (now I know who you are - thanks @Cookie ).

In case anyone does experience this, the video above is true to form. Fixed with ease!

I’ve had a set of OpenRun headphones for running and commuting for about three years. Brilliant item but they’ve recently developed the dreaded rattle. Presumably a speaker loose. Has anyone had the same and attempted the glue gum fix?

I used the lite version for time and ease + no garage. Easy to use. Almost slap it on. Water behaviour, looks, great. Longevity I’ll wait and see. Suggested 1 year (properly prepped and a Sunday car) so we’ll see.

Agreed, I would love to know what it's based on as it's very misleading. This is for outside at my postcode and yet my mobile show one bar of Vodafone and no 4G or 5G.

Nice one. Thanks.

Thanks, yes - first thing I checked but they are EE and Vodafone own websites… pinch of salt given it says full coverage in my area and it’s shocking.

Jeeves will be cross you’ve forgotten his name. He’s still not talking to Lord Moat… Thanks folks. I guess it’s a roll of the dice.
