Blackhole

[Christophe]

Just purchased some black hole and will be using it on the weekend.

does it replace srp and then use a sealant then wax. or can you use it between srp and a sealant?

 

[Pedro]

Blackhole is a glaze whilst SRP is a polish.

So...


Polish
Glaze
Seal
Wax.

 

[Christophe]

nice one. can't wait to give it a go.

 

[Gally]

It'll transform the car if used correctly.

Apply by DA and work the oils into the paint, really really work them in. If doing by hand it'll be fine but the results by DA will make you smile no end.

When Pedro says sealent, just watch what sealent you use. Make sure it's a good one, some Fk or something similar.

You should apply for a job at Finish Kare Gally.

 

[Pedro]

Indeed.


Thanks Gally.

 

[Ali]

One of my favourite products, amazing on dark colours!

 

[JD]

I really need to buy some more Red Moose Glaze . . .

 

[JD]

I love eBay.

 

[Gally]

You should really ploish my car.

Anything to add to this thread JD? You had any experience with it?

I'm going to try their 425 QD it looks lush, my SP Show detailer is nearly finished anyway.

 

[m4rkie23]

Aww. Is pink your colour lol

 

[Christophe]

doing it by hand as don't have a DA. I am currently using Werkstat Acrylic Jett Trigger as my sealant.

 

[BIFCAIDS]

Yes, epic at hiding marring. Used it on a recent BMW 3 series tourer that . . . well, bucket, sponge, grit etc for 9 years.

Aww. Is pink your colour lol

Orange actually

doing it by hand as don't have a DA. I am currently using Werkstat Acrylic Jett Trigger as my sealant.

The Werkstat is good stuff.

 

[m4rkie23]

Orange actually

Finish Kare #425 is Orange????

 

[JD]

Oh, I thought you were chatting about my car colour, people piss take that the colour is "Absolute Red" but is in fact Orange.

 

[Gally]

SP SD is pink as is 425 by the looks of it.

Nobody was talking about your car asw!

 

[m4rkie23]

I was gunna ask if you had some awesome special edition 425 then lol.

 

[JD]

Maybe I do

 

[Gally]

He is special.

 

[m4rkie23]

Have you ever tried Z6. I personally love the stuff.

 

[JD]

Yes, loved it too. I quite like a lot of the Zaino stuff. Z8 is ordered each time I go down to just one bottle, for fear of it being out of stock lol.

 

[m4rkie23]

I keep asking myself how many Z2's is too many.......

 

[JD]

Still a Chem Guys Blitz man, but I'm easily swayed

 

[Ali]

Never tried any Zaino stuff...I used to get suckered in to the whole Detailingworld patter...But tbh, it just became prohibitively expensive. Find a combo that works and stick with it.

Polish - Menz or 3M
Pads - Menz or Lake Country
Glaze - Poorboys or Cherokee
Wax - Swissvax
Sealants - Cg Blitz
Cleaners & Shampoos - Megs

Done.

 

[JD]

Agreed on the cost aspect, but I still keep my ears to the ground.

But tbh agreed on all above, AG makes an appearance still with Bumper Care and Vinyl/Rubber products.

 

[m4rkie23]

Zaino stuff is incredible. I didn't believe the hype until I tried it. It is a tad more pricey, but the results are amazing.

AG E&MC is top of my list for engines.
Duragloss #901 is the best shampoo I've used (z-7 comes close, but doesnt justify the extra cost really)
Menz polishes.
Menz / Hex-logic pags.
Z-2 sealant (+zfx for multi-applications)
z-16 tyres (this product really is amazing)

obviously depends on the vehicle for waxes etc

 

[Ali]

I don't think i use any AG products...

 

[Gally]

It's a shame it's kindy pishy wishy at lasting. It's one of the best products in the AG range.

Agree with Ali to a certain extent but some people love trying new stuff and seeing the differences, same with people having 4 and 5 waxes.

That show detailer has been great, love topping up my wax and to remove any leftover wax with it, non streak and deep gloss but I can't weait to try the FK stuff.

Looking forward to seeing how the dust sits compared with the SD, the FK has been praised for the anti-static properties so we'll see!

Used Purple haze yet JD?

 

[Ali]

As long as you've bin'd that pischy Collonites Kev!!!!

PH is ok, smells like my grans soap tho...

 

[JD]

Not used PH. You know my thoughts on most DJ products Kevvy.

AG E&MC is useful for shifiting grime from wheels and engine. Useful stuff.

humm, It's expensive imo. For motors super decreaser is better and ALOT more cost effective. I've recently started using Megs wheel brightener...Alot stronger, but Seriously good! Also cheap cheap!

 

[JD]

Megs Super Degreaser? G101 is still a good player in my mind.

 

[Gally]

G101 Belongs at the top of any car cleaning list! I'd be lost without it.

Need to get my wheels off for a clean and clay. the back are looking rather dirty!

476 is used on the wheels, brake dust washes off now.

 

[JD]

FFS. AR asked if you'd got rid for a reason you ned.

It's durable for the wheels. You keep using your marketed "wheel sealent" the wheels are painted with paint, like the bodywork!

 

[Ali]

Thats an acceptable use for it!

 

[JD]

But endures 100'C more in temperatures from the brakes/engine etc

You like FK stuff, buy FK1000p :rasp:
