By hand just buy some tripple or Rejuvenate mate Auto Finesse make both. Great cleansers especially on white. Both will leave a nice finish for topping.
I'd suggest get some Zaino Z2 or be lazy and buy some C2V3 so easy to use as the lsp.
Do it right once, for eg full detail and 3 layers of zaino Z2 or similar and it last 6 months with washing in between.
The new sealants like Gtechniq C2V3 are great, spray on wipe off and they last also stops crap sticking as easy, so a simple pw can clear most crap off it.
Do it right...
I don't think we'll be going this year. Not confirmed yet but we did spend a whack last year. I fancy coming down to see you and Joe though.
Wait till you see the V3 sheeting mate, you'll be very impressed. Can't be used over glazes the lot.
Blending is great but no one in the world is going to blend a roof for painting a spoiler. Our colour library is so vast we've never had to blend wings when doing bumpers where as this seems common in a lot of bodyshops.
Fact is plastic to metal can 90% look off colour anyway, blending the...
Yeah reload is proper mental sheeting wise but clean car needed. Go for C2V3, honestly dude see my thread on DW it's crazy stuff and goes over anything!
It can dilute to crazy. 1l can = 11ltrs easily but it's a tad smeary and not exactly quality.
You can get Britemax, it's £25 iirc for a gallon also Serious Performance do one concentrate to make a US gallon that's £22 iirc.
Yeah Sonus you can buy large iirc. Last Touch is just like water, it's far from Carnauba based.
It's funny you can probably buy bulk direct like AF finale or something, just need to find the right man. I'll send a text mate.

Been discussed a lot in here but thought it deserved a thread, no not in the detailing section.
Anyway everyone wants to own a shitter, one they can leave anywhere and abuse...
I always thought Lumix were still the top of the compact game mate. Some of the shots i've seen from compact lumix put some poor Dslrs to shame.
Russ used to do all his detailing shots with a tiny little Lumix and it was immense. TZ10 at the time iirc.

Oh and if you can buy one for 1500 and don't care about mpg etc you could run it into the ground. They're a rather good drive I must say. Have zero desire to crucify myself with one though!
It's the best sealant on the market mate at the moment. There are some cool things coming out of Asia just now but this stuff is so strong.
It is nasty s**t though for lungs etc is don't think the dealer chat is just hype.
No not me sadly but it is the one we painted...

Only pics seem to be on FB atm but you don't have to be signed in. Stunning stuff from Craig!
Agreed, being the coolest guy in my livingroom is uber important that's why I bought a new iPad... and an iPhone5 before that.
It might be because they are good but nah...
Interesting, didn't know you could remove just the door, thought it had to be unbolted from the back of the 1/4. Anyway lets hope the match from the paint company comes back correct.
Perplexing!
Oh dear! Another bodyshop that doesn't keep spray cards. Check and make sure your petrol flap is refitted perfect as they ruin the rear Nuts/threads on removal.
I wonder what other bodyshops do at times. We have a library of literally thousands and thousands of colours we have painted over...
He's talking pisch. You can quote me on that. You don't pick a colour and hope for the best ffs!
We have 6 shades for Monaco Blue. We have 32 shades for Pearl White on the Laguna GT. Tell him he should have colour checked the car before painting the spoiler the wrong colour!
Honestly! It's...
Looks superb CJ. Even those wheels in Silver would be stunning but works well with the colour of the car.
Lovely machine, i'm sure it covers ground in crazy fashion!
