A group buy could now be a goer

 

[Gally]

I've asked Carpro to see if we can do a group buy or something...

Discount is now 10%.

 

[Scrooge]

Yep, was just discussing that with him too, it's the same code isn't it? I fancy trying some of that fixer

 

[JD]

Cracking, well in Kev.

 

[Yellow Dave]

I'd be in for getting some more hydr02. is it going to be a group buy or just the higher discount code?

 

[Scrooge]

Not sure yet, i'll keep everyone updated once I hear some more from Craig at Carpro.

 

[aucky]

Great. I need more H02 as well

 

[Gally]

Yeah same discount code chaps.

I'll pass on the thanks from CarPro for all the orders you guts have placed. Great to see even though CS isn't a massive forum.

What is wrong with CYC? Every single time I go to purchase anything 'Authentication blocked for 10 minutes for security reasons.'

Stupid f**king website.

you don't want to order from there unless you can help it. Can you source your stuff elsewhere?

Too late, what have I missed?

 

[Cliotoby]

Youll see. Not in a rush are you?

 

[Scrooge]

I'm still waiting on a couple of items from Chemical guys lol that's nearly a month.

 

[Inequality Street]

Youll see. Not in a rush are you?

As long as they're here by March I'm happy lol!

 

[Yellow Dave]

I have a basket waiting with CYC but I don't want to order.

I could order else where but would mean multiple orders from different places and mutliple postage.

That's the problem, since Shinerama disappeared CYC has the best range. Matt at i4 needs to stock more!

So.... This hydro2 group buy... Is there a dedicated thread or is it just a discount code for the website.... Sounds like my kind of product!!!

 

[JHead]

So what shampoos are people using atm? nearly coming to the end of my bottle of lather.... tempted to get hubiwash as heard it was good?

I've got quite a small collection of products atm, so tempted to get a waxybox, and just see whats in there?

also, cheapest place for decent foam lance would be cool hehe, cheers!

 

[JHead]

AF Detailing Bag,
AF Citrus Power 1L
AF Total Interior Cleaner

Bilt Hamber Medium Clay

How do they sound? is the interior cleaner any good? or are there better on the market....? cheers

 

[Coby.]

Hubiwash is a lovely shampoo, That's what I'll be buying when I run out of Lather

Autobrite are running a good few deals on the DW forum for foam lances and foam.

 

[aucky]

As above, everyone seems to be loving Hubiwash atm. I'm sticking with BTBM, it suits my domestic water and I've no reason to change.

 

[gex23]

I stick to an old favourite - Meguiars Hyperwash. Good dilution ratio, not too sudsy, nice and slick.

 

[Scrooge]

Attacked Dave's newly painted Mazda this evening with hydro2. s**t water behaviour...

To awesome beading!

 

[aucky]

I just can't believe how good it is considering you don't even 'apply' it. So clever!

 

[Scrooge]

Yep, seriously clever stuff

 

[Coby.]

Need some Hydro2 in my kit.

 

[Gally]

Yup, great idea if used correctly.

 

[Yellow Dave]

Ant have you tried the nanolex washcoat yet?

Seems to be working pretty well so far, paint definitely feels slicker since applied

 

[Scrooge]

Nope not yet Dave, I was going to do a back to back test with it on mine last night but I really couldn't be bothered to strip off te existing protection. I haven't even looked into how it's best applied tbh

 

[JD]

As above, everyone seems to be loving Hubiwash atm. I'm sticking with BTBM, it suits my domestic water and I've no reason to change.

In all seriousness, coming from a hard water area and soft originally, you'll love it. Can send you up a sample if that helps? PM me your address.
Scrooge - that really is amazing water behaviour from a touchless

 

[Gally]

Washcoat same idea Dave?

 

[Scrooge]

Washcoat same idea Dave?

Supposed to be, but from why Dave said it seems to be a little more effort to apply via a snow foam gun.

 

[ben lee]

2nd...

 

[JD]

2nd guess 488

Impressive levels of fail, there.

 

[aucky]

Does anyone know how old Zaino is?

 

[JD]

Does anyone know how old Zaino is?

ZAINO EUROPE LIMITED was formed on the 8th May 2008

 

[aucky]

I've just been using Z2, it still compete with modern products IMO.

 

[Gally]

Zaino have bee. Around a lot longer than 08 but the business now is 08 onwards.

Z2/Z5 are still brilliant. Stood the test of time so well.

 

[Scrooge]

Right CarPro have confirmed a group buy for their 100ml Hydro2 at £10 inc delivery, saving £5 over retail!! A great chance to get your hands on some brilliant product imo. I'll set up a dedicated thread once we have payment details next week. I just wanted to get the word out so people knew it was coming up!

 

[Gally]

Well done Ant and big thanks to Craig. He's a good lad.

 

[Amos91]

Tempting Scrooge ! How far does 100ml stretch?
