Great work Ant! Photos are a bit off, happy to offer my services next time instead of the drop top ghey ;) When is the next detail booked in for? Fancy dropping by!

Presumed it would be fine over Amigo. Good to know for sure. Ooooh can't wait now lol!

Out of interest, because I can't be bothered to search, what is C2V3 based on, on your car? Amigo?

Buying a bottle for a brief top up detail due at the end of this month, Kev. Hope it's as good as you say, although if it's even marginally better than V1 I'll be happy for 6 months.

Keep the biscuits - your hand in marriage for a hand on the 182?

Not necessarily. If the car is well protected a low pressure hose off will work. Or a product like auto finesse citrus power will break it down, leaving it easy to rinse off. Wipi g is a no no. Birds eat grit to aid digestion. This poop it out leaving it on your paint.

Back up to £6 - occasionally have deals like 342.

To be honest, Alex, I'd whole heartedly agree with that last sentence (if you don't have a machine, or just don't have time).

Durable, yes. But 476s will mute the flake pop on metallic cars and generally make silver cars look dull. If you want something as durable, but with better looks, try 915 Insulator wax.

SN is pretty average in the grand scheme of things. And for £50-65, it's way overpriced. Nattys Blue Paste at £15 looks better an lasts longer with correct prep and app. If the budget is £50 go for Carbon. If lower, Bouncers.

This isn't the halfords shopping section, chap. The products you've listed (save for LP) are terrible. For £22 you can buy P1 and a hand cut pad. Probably a few MFs as well. So OP, I suggest taking that advice...!

500 is far too coarse. But people use it as they see results more quickly. 3000 and 4000 should be used to remove the marks imparted by 2000 grit. People expect immediate results, hence the "botch job" 3M kit sells so well.

RDS was £2.25 in ASDA (1/4 the price of CP), so got a load cheap in Halfords as well in their price match. Wax safe, not quite as effective as CP however from testing by... yellow someone, Belly or Dave. And yes, I know you're a cunitdot. ;)

I do love some of these replies. 3000 if desired... 500 grade up... Utterly hilarious. If a job's worth doing...

PM'd chap.

That's the same price as Tescos, folks. So if you can't find it near you, it's £3 cheaper than Halfords (since I can't get any more :( ). This isn't an arsey post. This is a post stating you're making it easier for CS users (I know how written word comes across ;) ).

Yes, Toby did this recently. You can also use Car Plan/Demon Shine Rapid Dirt Shifter.

Text me?

For a nothing added/nothing gained QD, I still like Megs Last Touch. Bulk buy, ratios are good, smells nice, lasts ages. http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/detailing-sprays/meguiars-last-touch/prod_225.html For something that tops up and adds to the finish, Z6/8 are/were my go to products.

Leather from LTT.

Shed if ever I saw one! ;) Looks well big guy.

Anytime chap. If you're not sure or something doesn't work, post up and we'll come back to you.

Only joshing.

Shuttit. Tit being the operative word.

Ah, that I'd not taken into account. In that case, Daniel; SRP new formula. I honestly can't think of anything that will match it for cost/ability.

Plastx from meguiars for the swirls. Tardis or AG Intendive Tar And Glue Remover for the residue the tape leaves. Soak it first using a paper towel.

Not at all. Although people don't presume I'm a tard 99% of the time ;) x

Yeah, that'll be why it doesn't look like it's done anything. The new stuff DW raves about contains a fall out removing ingredient and is pH neutral. The stuff you've got is just brick acid and won't be doing your wheels any good. Wash the wheels with a degreaser, then rinse. Follow up with...

What are you trying to get rid of? If Wonder Wheels hasn't shifted it, it's not grime. It's likely to be iron deposits or tar, in which case IronX and Tardis are the next stages. Then claying, then polishing, then wipe down with IPA and seal. That's the proper process.
