Black Gold detailing products

[pbufton]

With the french car show just around the corner, I'm looking for a good kit to detail my 182 with.

What do you use on your black clio's? Ill be looking to clay bar it too, and something for the alloys and to dress the tyres

Thanks

Get it mopped and just clean and polish with any old stuff, it will be dirty by the time you drive it there anyways unless your having it transported down...

^^Oh shush...

Best thing as any detailer would say, prep is key.

Do the two bucket method to avoid any more work, then clay and rinse off.

I personally use R222's carnuba paint enhancer and paste wax, lasts a long time and gives a deep gloss finish, great for the flakes.

You can try Black Fire over Black Ice products, also good but I find its a bit of a b**ch to remove if the car is slightly too warm.

Take a bucket with you or a good fluffy MF Towel to dust off or even wash if it rains, a quick detailer will refresh what youve already done at home.

Im no detailing expert but i find this stuff great for a hand applied deep wet look shine and is affordable too.

Have a look in the Detailing section, there's a few sticky threads in there for wash techniques and basic cleaning processes.
