Citrus Power, then pressure wash. It'll all come off (depending on how well the car is protected, anyway).

Clearly it's a massive risk, as people have never layered one wax over another. Wait, hang on...

Funny that. A Level Biology, Chemistry and two others (straight run of As, by the way, from a very well know grammar school). Plus a degree in BioChemistry and Human Genetics. I'm sorry, you were saying? You appear to have concluded that your age allows you to post as a know it all in the...

C1? C4! It's Monday.

Kev, C1 and Vics posted today. However slight issue on the Glasur. Apparently a "small 3inch pot of cream coluored wax" in my dads eyes means "large tub of p21s and nattys blue"... No glasur luck! Might also mean its not where I thought I'd left it... Can you wait?

Don't forget spot pads.

He does/we do. Because it's from a tried and tested product line from a reputable company. And I've also explained most of it above. Would you buy a turbo from a random ebayer for your car?

Old drying towels and microfibres buddy. Compressed air is jolly useful, if you have access to it! Megs is good for the gen pub. Blackfire Gel is still the best, IMO, but comes with the price tag to boot.

The iron compound fragments react with the IronX solution. They break down and form a different solution (definition of a solution being a salt/solute dissolved in a solvent, i.e. the new compound dissolved in the IronX solution), hence the purple streaks showing through the originally clear...

"Blossom into a real man"? Who the f**k "blossoms into a real man" FFS.

Colour = no.

Found that pretty boring TBH. Probably because neither car floats my boat...

Yeah the phone and broadband is not an issue really. It'll barely be used. TV with sky is what I want and the bundle was the best option. Bloody utilities companies!!

And polish on the light rim... any correction shots? Prefer the car in the background ;) goes to look for your old write up of it :)

Perhaps I’m getting old or just going mental. I’ve called Sky to get my Broadband and Phone setup. I’m not arsed about the phone deal. And Broadband speed is nothing to worry about as long as I can do iPlayer, I’m just interested in the TV really. Sky tell me they need to know my landline...

Ta'hexted.

Fun is fine, but (and I don't need to tell you this I'm sure) be careful with the expense that goes in. Small pot of that, small pot of this... soon adds up with high end waxes (thinking Glasur as the pot I'm sending is the £25 pot Dave sold me a few months back, untouched - not said in a "you...

Pics/vids of you in your wash gear, spraying...

Computer says no ;) So, C4, Vics and Glasur?

I'm thinking.

Kev, can I suggest you talk to Dawn?

Kevin's champagne charity.

There's shed loads of it. Not keen for the Trophy? Never use it so do as you please pal. Carbon and Glasur are also in my armoury if needed...

I'll get Dad to bring the Vics red and send it up with the C4 pal.

That doesn't need a full spray or replacement bonnet. Type in stone chip into detailing world for some easy to follow guides. It is a minor issue - replacement and resprays are major solutions... http://www.detailingworld.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=20127

That looks superb fella. Really do love the colour and obviously it's clean, so gets extra plus points in my eyes!

No, dry in, but can be applied when wet. Depends on the outcome of the drying/water spotting point Chris made in the other thread. If Hydro2 can be sprayed on, PW'd off but then still needs drying (hard water in the Sarf y'know ;) ) then it's comparable in my eyes. Might buy some and use it on...

Well I swear by C2 for top ups as I use it everywhere. Carbon is still holding strong though. Be interested to see the longevity and self-cleaning abilities, if it's being likened to a ceramic sealant.

Bloody useful for me mate, having so little time/space/area to clean these days. I'll buy some soon and do it when I do dad's R8 pre LeMans trip.

Some metal polishes contain abrasives, so it would start the process but take a while. Presume this has been mentioned as most metal polishes also contain chemical cleaners which might help to remove some of the hazing. IMO 1000 if really necessary, 2000-3000, then polish with a machine polisher.
