Anyone looking for a deal on very expensive wax?

[Gally]

It's an awesome wax, we used it beside Vintage etc before on a boutique test. It's like oil! Not paying that price though!

 

[aucky]

The price will be cut all day until someone buys it. It's a waiting game

Has the hide sample arrived btw?

 

[Scrooge]

What kind of deal?

 

[aucky]

Not yet mate, guy is picking up the polisher parcel today, posted 1st class dude. Should be there Wed/Thurs at the latest.

 

[aucky]

Now £150, proper bargain for someone.

 

[Gally]

Sold at £149! Bargain!

 

[aucky]

I nearly bought it but then realised what I was doing. £150 on a wax when I have loads of other? Nah.



Gally, Hide sample was posted on Friday.

 

[Gally]

Lols! I know, we're mental hobbyists!

Nice wax though. £400 worth. Thanks mate, I replied earlier in the thread.

 

[aucky]

Ah yes

I got about 95% correction about a year or so ago and my paint is still in very good condition, how much cut will I get from tripple/rejuvenate or blackmax on a CG blue hex pad?

Is this something I can use over and over again and not worry too much about or should I be cautious with the amount of cut this pad and polish combo will be giving me?

I just want to maintain my finish and keep it looking glossy without removing more clearcoat.

 

[JamesBryan]

Another bargain for someone.

http://www.shinearama.co.uk/product.php?id=ZAI-ULTIMATE

[Gally]

It's pretty good but I have 95% of them! Love Zaino!

 

[Scrooge]

Only have one zaino product so that's very tempting!!

 

[Gally]

There stuff always impresses and more than stands the test of time against new fangled s**t.

 

[Scrooge]

I will collect the rest at some point but I'm still recovering from my last purchases lol

 

[Gally]

Lols! Expensive hobby!

 

[Scrooge]

Only have one zaino product so that's very tempting!!

[Cliotoby]

Could anyone recommend the best products for keeping the cars interior upholstery clean and is easy to use, It's for the Clio Cup and the works van, that would be carpets, cloth seats, and plastic trim, glass etc.
It needs to be easy to use and idealy not something that's wet when applied and has to be left to dry for a long period , as you can tell I don't detail but just looking for some good products and tips.

Regards Russ.......

I usually use autobrite FAB - lightly mist onto the seat and then use a microfibre to almost pick the dirt out by patting the seat.

I have been thinking of getting a rotary EP801 after reading this review
http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?657283-The-EP801-is-finally-here
However after looking at more reviews and advice on CS and DW, I wonder if a DA would be better. I am no expert and have been trying to improve our cars (3 old Clios & 1 old Citroen) with mixed results for the last few Months, see
http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?663336-Black-not-black-enough!
So should I go for the rotary EP801 or if not what DA for the same sort of money is recommended?

 

[JackJack]

Anyone recommend a good wheel cleaner that can be used on alloys that have been kerbed (if that makes any difference?)

Hope this is in the correct thread, I'm going to be taking the 'Renault' & 'Sport' badge off the back of my 182 (Titanium) and I know it is going to leave behind a lot of brown outline staining - what product would people recommend for removing this?

 

[aucky]

Tardis = tar and glue remover
