I think it's the G2 mate.
Do 3 layers one on top of the other. No removal inbetween iirc. Contact Rob at Gtechniq if there are any problems. Very helpful blokes.
You really need to make sure you do it right.
On timp of the bottle on the make up pad will probably do half the window or more.
Leave 15/20 minutes, apply another layer, leave 15/20 mins then apply a 3rd (windscreen only the rest get 1 layer) Then remove the excess as per the instruction...
Bang on mate. Glasur is an on off type wax. Swisswax waxes can be left for days and remove no problem. One of their perks.
Glasur does spread like butter though. One swipe I did a full bonnet and wing.
These days... i'm still not sure which I would go for. 51% towards Shield.
It's all about opinions at the end of the day Dave, all of us like different things. The only thing that put me off shield was the price and the recent price rise.
Before the price rise it was a bargain. Shield is one of the best all round waxes on the market.
I can only suggest research research research. You'll also sell it on if you don't like it. No matter what wax it is.
My car wearing Glasur before I bought a full pot.

This answer can be for both of you.
Spirit doesn't feel special enough to compete with Glasur imo. Pot, the feel of the product. Russ has used both more than me though.
Glasur imo is immense. Sometimes it can need a second wipe down after an hour due to gassing solvents but tbh it's...
Sounds quiter than mine tbh. A decent system shouldn't be intrusive until pressing on. At normal, low rpm it shouldn't be droning.
I think it sounds great considering the standard engine and exhaust sounds pants.
Spirit is the only one i'd buy mate. Durability has to be decent in this country.
I have to be honest I think there are better waxes out there and i'm a massive AF fan mate.
I'm surprised you waited on an accident to change your views/ perceptions of winter tyres after working on the continent for quite a bit.
I've spoken to a few people now who have used winter tyres for years and they all got to that point after travelling/working on the cold continent.
Lovely car Mark. Really works with those Silver wheels and the blacked out bodywork is perfect.
Very subtle and spot on what you're looking for. Enjoy!
I looked at the Trophy before buying the Frp. Heart ruled my head.
No doubting the Trophy is the better car in 9/10 departments. Driving the Frp in the right conditions is something very special.
I'm not saying everyone would get that feeling but as a massive Ford fan, it tickles my balls...
Thanks mate i'm usually on the ball with grammar. My bad. I actually thought 'it's' was right as I was personalising Winter.
Thanks for the comments. It costs minimal to maintain for now. My dad/brother service the car/brakes so cost me £20 minus oil for it's service in July.
Discs are £400...
To be fair the bonnet and bumper are the quite bad on the Clios for chipping.
The bumper is very flat face and the bonnet is quite sloped.
The problems get worse the more you paint these panels.
Most definitely Red. It's terrible for stone chipping.
Most cars should have a colour coded primer but they haven't really moved onto that yet.
It's something we try in do with all our cars.
