    Better interior plastic restorer than Finish Kare #108...?

    I'm pretty pleased with this one http://www.seriousperformance.co.uk/Products,107,toView_407.html The durability is good and the results upon using on interior plastics/vinyl are very satisfying. However the bottle is now empty. I'm now in the market to buy another one or perhaps a product...

    Exalto 2's vs Pilot Sport 3's...?

    I guess this is a question that's been asked a few times before. Anyway, it would seem according to the retailers that the Exalto 2's are becoming a little difficult to get hold of for a good price. Camskill out of stock and unsure when the next delivery will be. I always used Exalto's on the...

    Stone chips...body shop or mobile paint repair?

    Quite a few stone chips on the bonnet, bumper and wings. Would it usually be cheaper to have a mobile paint repair specialist or visit a body shop? Also will the quality vary between the two? Thanks :)

    Best way to prepare tyre walls for tyre shine...?

    My usual method is to wash the tyre walls with a separate mitt to the bodywork and use regular diluted shampoo. Then rinsing and allowing to dry naturally. However I dried them with a clean towel the other week and found black deposits on the towel. I'm unsure if this was dirt or not. Possibly...

    Drying towels, high absorbency, high quality?

    Not keen to go the route of Der Wunder towels once more. First pair I bought back in 2007 were very good. Then in 2009 I bought another pair with a slightly dark edging to them, very dissapointed since they weren't a touch on the first pair. Tried the Monster Drying Towels from Cleanyourcar...

    ...and the best sealant is...?

    Tried Tough Coat, worked out reasonably well. Liked the fact it was easier to apply than E G P but found the results to be more or less the same. Left a sort haze on my metallic black Monaro, bit disappointed about that. So, I'm the hunt for a better sealant than E G P (greater durability) with...

    Which H I D kit to go for...?

    Obviously there's various H I D kits on the market. Question is which one to go for. I don't know a great deal about H I D lighting, in which case does the brightness and definition from kit to kit? Looking for high quality kit that's well made and does the job better than most available...

    Good quality seat covers...?

    Looking for a set (front and rear) seat covers. The importance is on quality rather than on pattern or colour. Long lasting, breathable, waterproof and something that fits very well and that doesn't move around on the seat. Any ideas? Thanks :)

    Bightest L E D side light bulbs are...?

    Recently replaced mine with these: http://www.autobulbsdirect.co.uk/501-Can-bus-Super-Bright-360-Degree-5-LED-bulbs.html?bulb_search=c22039 Can't say I'm actually that taken with them. I find the brightness to be the same as the O E M gear. Except they have a nice clean look to them. Anybody...

    ...and the best air freshner is?

    Ok, bit of an odd question but I'm finding the likes of Magic Tree air freshner s don't cut the mustard any more. I do drive with the drivers window open a fair amount of time and I know that doesn't help. So I'm on the look out for a quality long lasting air freshner. Preferably one which is...

    Upgrading to H I D s...?

    I appreciate this is topic that's been covered before, though something I know next to nothing about. I quite fancy the idea of one of upgrading to one of these H I D kits. Something of very good quality and excellent illumination is what I'm looking for. Any recommendations on what I...

    Professional cleaning of seats...?

    My Fabia SDi is soon to be up for sale, sadly the seats need really good clean due to marking VERY easily. It's a terrible interior for showing dirt/stains/marks! I've tried cleaning the seats myself with not much avail. I'm in Essex between Colchester and Chelmsford. I'm looking to get them...

    Decent and reasonably priced 24 hour car insurance cover...?

    Does anyone know of decent but reasonably priced insurance companies that offer 24 hour car insurance cover? Currently I'm with Adrian Flux. Just phoned them and they've come back to me with quote for £60 just for 24 hours, I feel this is a tad expensive, even for a Ibiza Cupra TDi. Thanks.:)

    Professional detailing in the South East...?

    The Monaro's metallic black paint work isn't in the best of condition. Many swirls across the whole of the body, previous owners not following a the careful washing procedure at all. Hence I'm looking to have the paintwork returned to it's original splendour if possible. Bearing in mind the car...

    Rubber/plastic restorer...?

    The Monaro's plastic/rubber window fittings and surrounds are begining to show their age now. The colour has changed from it's darker original to that horrible shade of light grey and looks worn and somewhat discoloured. I'm wondering if it's possible to get it back to the original colour or...

    Wheel wax, which one...?

    I figured this one might do a decent job, the emphasis being on durability and protection. Not keen on waxing the wheels every week or month if I can help it. Any body used it, it's a jolly decent product? So Chemical Guys Wheel Guard...

    Goodbye Clio.

    Sold my 182 Cup the other week Clio sold!!! Moving on to faster things, hence reason for sale. Overall verdict: Damn good grip and balance etc, I'd say on a par with my Integra Type R on public roads :). Very forgiving and easy to learn, no suprises. Not as quick accelerate as the...

    The strongest wheel cleaner is....?

    A friend has a problem with removing dirt/brake dust that more or less seems ridiculously stubborn. It looks like a build up over many miles and years. Anyone have an idea of what type of cleaner is necessary and where it can be purchased? Not too bothered if it contains acid. Needs to be...
