    Thanks mate, something I knocked up. I'd like to do it properly but I get bored usually.

    Glazes and Using Glazes PT1...

    Glazes and Using Glazes PT2... Glazing: PT2 Just a few bits to talk about after covering the previous area. The products themselves, different types of glaze/cleanser and also glazing over good paintwork. First up glazing over decent paintwork... A lot of pro detailers don't feel the need to...

    Why you shouldn't use car washes

    Nice. I was wondering how the Carwash didn't have a disclaimer?

    200 Cup insurance cheaper than my 182 insurance!?

    I fix 5 Aygos to every 1 R.S Clio. (Random numbers but you see my point)

    200 Cup insurance cheaper than my 182 insurance!?

    Well that's quite wrong. Insurance is about statistics amongst other things. They don't pluck numbers out of thin air.

    I bought a DAS 6 kit :)

    I use the Green one more aswell actually Dave, the green spot pad is fantastic for decent cut/polish. I was trying for a happy medium with the white one. :)

    I bought a DAS 6 kit :)

    Your car is RB so i'd go for a wax and a good durable started wax is this... http://www.i4detailing.co.uk/acatalog/Autoglym_HD_Wax_1.html That's a decent price. With a decent shampoo it'll last 6months+ mate. Apply about a panel at a time and remove. DO NOT DO THE FULL CAR. :) The glaze is in...

    AutoGlym Clean Wheels on Speedline Satin Black - Safe? Yes or no?

    He does realise resellers are branding stuff "safe" there for by association calling acidic wheel cleaners unsafe. Which they are.. for your skin. I already offered! Miss his face!

    An old picture I found - Mini Cooper 1.3i

    You need Zaino Z2 or Gtechniq C1. I'm sure you don't actually care. :o The mini looks brilliant! I never even knew the word detailing 6 years ago! Natty's Blue aswell, still a good wax!

    Groupon kit - worth it?

    Hmm, they are more valeting products than detailing but for that price it's not too bad. I could buy quite a few detailing bits with £25. Not for me i'm afraid.

    I bought a DAS 6 kit :)

    No forget LP, that's what Britemax is for. Britemax will cleanse and glaze mate. Leave a lovely surface for any lsp. :) White pad for polishing, blue for cleansing/glazing. :) Get Menzerna 106fa. http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/polishing/polish/menzerna-250ml/prod_217.html Enough bite to remove...

    AutoGlym Clean Wheels on Speedline Satin Black - Safe? Yes or no?

    It's very good. I'm not actually a bilberry fan. This is and always has been my favourite wheel cleaner... http://shop.autobritedirect.co.uk/brite-gel-non-acidic-wheel-cleaner-by-autobrite-various-sizes-2478-p.asp I've yet to see another safe wheel cleaner clean like Brite Gel and i've tried a...

    AutoGlym Clean Wheels on Speedline Satin Black - Safe? Yes or no?

    Iron x should remove. Then try an old piece of clay to take any last remaining bits off.

    I bought a DAS 6 kit :)

    I personally would buy the polisher and pads/polish seperate, that's just me though. http://www.i4detailing.co.uk/acatalog/Kestrel_DAS-6_Menz_Kit_1_1.html That kit is decent. Buy a glaze at the same time. Britemax Black max. :) Menzerna pads aren't great but they would do mate.

    http://www.i4detailing.co.uk/acatalog/I4D_Uber_Premium_Drying_Towel_1.html This one is better. CS has a discout code iirc. 7.5%. :)

    AutoGlym Clean Wheels on Speedline Satin Black - Safe? Yes or no?

    I don't know why I bothered. Billy can use what he likes. He knows whats best for him but when people come asking for advice in this section I hate seeing bad advice get given out. Why take the risk with inferior wheel cleaners. They might never ruin your wheels but why take the chance when...

    AutoGlym Clean Wheels on Speedline Satin Black - Safe? Yes or no?

    Well it's not. I'm not a Lemming, I actually have used the products I recommend or criticise. Autoglym do some very good products, their wheels cleaners are acidic, ie not good for wheels. It's pretty simple. Autosmart are a good business and have been around for years. I wouldn't want to get...

    New to detailing

    Fast Glass is so so bad! I'm using Auto Finesse Crystal at the moment. Very good cleaner. The market is spoilt for choice with glass cleaners. http://www.polishedbliss.co.uk/acatalog/safe-washing-and-drying.html

    AutoGlym Clean Wheels on Speedline Satin Black - Safe? Yes or no?

    The refurb was probably crap but i'm sure there would have been less chance of it happening with a safe wheel cleaner.

    Audi TTRS Enhancement Detail with Swissvax Crystal Rock - ex Milltek Demo Car!

    It's an option mate. I wouldn't personally buy one without them. I've sat in them with a Black on Black TTRS and they are immense.
