That still doesn't mean I could.

Gally · Mar 15, 2014

Lols! JD personally the only other thing is it wasn't rinsed properly.

Mate. Not to be a dick. But come on. I've been detailing for over ten years. This is the first "user error" in that time. I'm not saying it couldn't happen, but talk of not rinsing properly is pretty below me.

Yellow Dave · Mar 15, 2014

I did Ant, seems to be longer lasting than the nanolex washcoat, albeit after today's troubles a little less specific with application

JHead · Mar 16, 2014

JD, if it makes you feel any better I have a couple of areas that are the same. Although some areas look fine. I know I did it wrong though, used too much stuff so got dilution wrong, didn't realise you had to open hose rinse after pressure wash.

I'm not a detailed though so... Yeah I don't know :L

Hopefully Craig comes back with an answer but that's all could suggest dude.

Yeah sorry gally had a few beers and was still livid when I walked passed the car on the way home!

I'll just try IPA, WWHW etc. still fucked off. Gorgeous day. Should be driving to Brighton. Car is unusable.

-J- · Mar 16, 2014

f**k me JD if the cars unusable my work car must only be fit for the scrap yard lol

Scrooge · Mar 16, 2014

I'm lol'ing at unusable. My car is dusty atm and the painters still haven't taken it I'm more than annoyed lol

Guys, I can't see out of the screen. Or any of the windows. I know because I drove it slowly to a local jet wash to see if higher pressure would shift it.

Think of looking through major overspray.

Mr R. · Mar 16, 2014

Lol @ JD.

This is my van, I must be a proper tramp to drive something so dirty.

Scrooge · Mar 16, 2014

Wow. Sounds like what's left after a non rinsed fairy liquid wash lol

Midnight · Mar 16, 2014

I had to use AG tar remover to remove it off the rear window this morning.

Going to watch the match then try cleaning the paintwork...

Not dirty, Scott. Unable to see out. Screen wash doesn't shift crystallised glass coating!

It looks like a car that's sat near a body shop all of its life. Overspray e'rywhere.

gally Scrooge

Well that's a good possibility then. C2v3'd two weeks ago.

Mr R. · Mar 16, 2014

Oh I see, you have a point.

Glad i missed out on the GB now.

Im hoping it is but I've put it over c2v3 and had no issues. Less than two weeks between the two aswell.

JD · Mar 16, 2014

gally could you let me have Craig's email addy fella so I can drop him a line with questions on removal?

Ah fair enough, really odd... You must have a dodgy bottle or something

Midnight · Mar 16, 2014

Tried a quick clean however it was still there. Like JD I started to get a little angry.

Poorboys polish started to get it off, so looks like in re polishing the entire car again.

Will NOT be buying or recommending this product again.

Scrooge · Mar 23, 2014

JD came to the unit yesterday to have his Brembos fitted and as it was a nice day we thought we would address this hydro issue. We tried IPA, eraser, clay and even tripple by machine. This stuff has such a good physical bond with the paint it wouldn't shift at all. We had to break out the rotary, hex pads and Menz 2500, JD was also doing the same with the DA.

We got the hydro off and the car looked bloody awesome in the short space of time we had. A quick 50/50...

JD has more pictures of reflective goodness.

We still don't know what causes it in the first place but best guess is reacting with c2v3. It won't put me using it again as I still bloody love the product.

Inequality Street · Mar 23, 2014

Thats very odd that. Glad it looked alright in the end though, and as above, I still love Hydr02

Scrooge · Mar 23, 2014

It was very odd mate, I stood there baffled for quite a while.

TheEvilGiraffe · Mar 23, 2014

I still think he didn't read the instructions after we ribbed him for bringing you some to fit his sump filter, Scrooge

Seriously bloody weird tho.

Sunglasses_Ron · Mar 23, 2014

So pleased that JD's was back to its old gleaming self by the close of play yesterday. And the sort in the pub seemed to like the look of a gleaming JD.

Gally · Mar 23, 2014

User error...

Flol! One winked at me on the way out!

Aye, weird one this. But as said, with Ant's massive generosity we sorted it back to it's gleaming self.

Mr R. · Mar 23, 2014

Looks bloody awsome JD.

How do the brakes feel?

Maybe he could provide a list of potentially uncompatible products too?

Gally · Mar 23, 2014

I don't think it was another product issue.

Yellow Dave · Mar 23, 2014

Looks nice Jamie, would did you seal it with? More C2?

JD · Mar 23, 2014

gally said:

Honestly not sure what else it could be?

Yellow Dave said:

Ant went around the car with reload. Need to buy some actually.

Scrooge · Mar 23, 2014

I enjoyed the whole day dude, it was great to pick up a machine again as it's been a few weeks and with the weather lately i've been itching to get back at it!

Chapppers11 · Mar 23, 2014

Good work @Scrooge and @JD, car looks awesome!

Scrooge · Mar 24, 2014

It was most enjoyable, two buffers going at the same time!

Anyhoo, get amongst it everyone, great product at a great price. Perfect for anyway reinstating their summer wheels or protecting after a refurb etc!

Need to get mine 'furb'd...

Scrooge · Mar 24, 2014

Yes you do, that Audi will look seriously jaw dropping with fresh paint on the wheels and eibachs. Get DLUX for when you do?

Still got some C5, C4 and Strata coating so will use that. Thoughts on where to get them done?
