    Detailling the BMW 330CI tomorrow

    Was about to jump in with claying. Wet sanding is brave, but well worth it. Just go slow. I don't do glazes instead of sealents, so would go for some Chem Guy's Blitz instead or as well as, just for some protection :)

    Car detailing help :D

    Mainly because it can be out of the price range of some. It is seen as a bit of a named brand, like buying BMW over Ford. But the reasons speak for themselves. DW is usually about the newer products/bargain options. Hence Dodo getting more of a shout recently. I love my Natty's Blue wax (not...

    Car detailing help :D

    Hand the SRP is good, there are some more recent ones that have come out. They will brighten up the paint work nicely. Again, not going OTT, I always Machine Polish SRP every couple of months, just to take back the build up of what ever is on the paint work (old waxes/sealents/crap)...

    Car detailing help :D

    It is a bit of a "halfords/n00b/rush it" product mate, in all honesty. Detailing can go on and on in terms of products and costs, but even when I was first starting out I went above that type of product.

    Car detailing help :D

    I haven't tried this stuff, so cannot comment. But I would be wary of any products that push the fact that they are made of synthetic ingredients.

    Car detailing help :D

    Its a finishing/buffing polish. Awful stuff :S sorry! Not very hard wearing wax, won't last and for the price there are much better newbie waxes out there. But all IMO and experience :) Not a "get at you" quote ;)

    Car detailing help :D

    Hi bud, You need a sealent in there like Auto Glym Extra Gloss Protection/Chemical Guys Blitz/Jeffs Werkstat Acryllic to seal the freshly polished paint work. Tend to do as many layers of this as I can, so around 4-8. P21s (now called R222 but I refuse to abide by the new name lol) is a very...

    One question iPhone/iPT thread.

    Re: iPhone Software 3.0 Discussion (New hardware Expected 9/6/2009) Tom, I presume with this new Iphone coming out, Iphone gen 2s will come down in price dramatically? Debating what to do with the contract that has ended recently.

    Cheapo nasty blue 'xenon look' bulbs

    I was also told (may or may not be true) that the blue tinted ones are illegal? Never had a problem. Ste, look in the guides section for bulb guides.

    Choosing a splitter....?

    Sometimes I think it is a bit OTT, but still love the look and flexability i.e. not scared of hitting it on a curb!

    Help

    Yeah I saw a few of those going around on Ebay when I first started. Bet I can't find my video now, but search on Youtube and Google Videos and should come up with some decent advice. Make sure that the ones that you watch are designed to be followed by users of PC/Random Orbital Polishers...

    Swissvax hoe, Stage 1 done.

    Yeah that's what I mean, it's usually around the wing mirrors/bottom of front bumper/spoiler, i.e. the usual places! I CBA getting the drying towel out again once I have started, so anything thing that can aid the drying process, score :)

    Help

    There are quite a few guides on Detailing World. But I have to say, the best help that I had was a guide that I found on the internet/youtube that basically had a video of the action required for a PC.

    Omnia HD, is out.

    It's for the new generation that need less to think about, since GCSEs and A-Levels are about as easy as turning the oven on.
