100% in on that. Well happy with £40 for a 3 month subscription.

 

[Jay.S]

I'm happy to pay that.

When would the £40 need to be paid by?

 

[fearless]

Count me in for the £40. Used all the goodies in mine today and it was great fun.

I quite liked the shampoo, bar the smell. Not had a chance to use the others yet

I feel a monthly "meet to try Waxybox" coming on at the Unit.

 

[Gally]

Chip won't be happy!

 

[Adamm.]

Whats the 50/50 for gally?

 

[Saamm93]

Will you still be doing buy for one month only? I'd like to try it before I sign up for 3 months...

Also does the group buy get you the discount on the sight too? I'd like a few of those stickers for my bucket!!

 

[JD]

OMG STEP.

 

[Gally]

Lols. It was a Panther Black Fiesta on DW.

 

[Cliotoby]

Not sure Ill use anything in the box this month as it was all s**t. Might use the tyre gel and applicator to dress my arches.... Might give the rest away to someone. The air freshner was horrible.

 

[imprezaworks]

Lol fair one. I didn't think the sealant stuff was any good tbf

OOOOOO excite!

 

[Mr R.]

OOOOOO excite!

Along with a BBQ.

 

[Scrooge]

Yep, we haven't had one this year

 

[Clart]

Just put an old kitchen cupboard up in my shed - i aim to completely fill it...

 

[Coby.]

Fighting the urge to buy the DA for sale on here, I blame all of you for this!

 

[Coby.]

Scrap that.... Thought it was more of a saving than it actually is

 

[Gally]

Iron remover test...

More pics in my project thread!

 

[.Stevo.C.]

That stuff smells so bad, does the job though.

 

[Yellow Dave]

Comparison thoughts on the products?

 

[Gally]

Update soon mate. Waxtec stuff smells nice though. Proper cherry unlike IX.

 

[Scrooge]

That wax tec stuff still smells like ass the sfter hit of cherry doesn't make up for it tbh. Wolfs iron remover smells a lot nicer but is shite. I'll just stick with Carpro

 

[Coby.]

The Wax-Tec stuff removed some iron but a hit with IX afterwards really showed it up, I don't think the smell is that bad with IX tbh.

 

[Gally]

Yeah but even IX would take multiple hits dependent on area.

 

[imprezaworks]

Not sure if allready mentioned. Has anyone used toughcoat and then c2v3 and preferred which one?

 

[Gally]

TC is sort of a normal spray sealant. C2 is a nano sealant with proper sheeting and beading abilities. No comparison imo.

Just as easy to use. Looks better imo and performance, no contest really.

TC is a good product. I'm just not sure why you'd pay more and get less.

 

[imprezaworks]

Ok cheers. Fancy trying the c2 stuff as people rave about it. Any spectacular deals around at the moment? I've seen it on ebay go £20 I think

 

[Gally]

It's like £8 from the GT website!

 

[imprezaworks]

The price was for the 500ml which I'm guessing will last me forever so may aswell go for the 100ml one?

ive ordered some. May aswell give it a blast

 

[Gally]

Yeah. 100ml lasts me forever. Bear in mind 1/2 layers is nearly 6 months!

 

[imprezaworks]

See what it's like next weekend

 

[Cliotoby]

Yeah. 100ml lasts me forever. Bear in mind 1/2 layers is nearly 6 months!

I think 500ml lasts me about 2 months at best. I apply weekly.

 

[Adamm.]

Need to get myself some of that. Not that I will but is there actually any benefit to applying weekly? So would the protection actually last much longer with all the layers?

 

[imprezaworks]

I think 500ml lasts me about 2 months at best. I apply weekly.

Why do you apply it weekly? Isn't the aim not too?

 

[Gally]

Because he is a penis.

 

[imprezaworks]

Oh

 

[Cliotoby]

I dont see why you get so annoyed about it.

Application of this stuff is horrible. That or it doesnt like sitting over CQUK.

Goes all streaky. If I run round the car with my damp drying towels after it gets rid of this.

Read the applications thread on DW... oh wait, bannage.

Most people have said the same, so say on black cars diluted is the best bet... LOL. And I'm actually not lying, as funny as it would now be to see you do a U turn on your "I APPLY IT NEAT, DID I TELL YOU I APPLY IT NEAT? DO YOU APPLY IT NEAT, TOBY? YES, I APPLY IT NEAT"...

 

[Cliotoby]

I can still read the forums.....

It pains me but I think you're right and I'm going to have to dilute this.

Whats the ratio?
