Anyone had another look at the tags at the bottom of this page?

 

[Scrooge]

why does it say rape?

 

[Sunglasses_Ron]

Cheers for the advice chaps. A spray sealant is on my shopping list. The one Ant uses, sonax? Is brilliant.

 

[Scrooge]

Sonax/reload/c2v3 are all awesome imo

 

[Gally]

After using Reload more I definitely prefer it to C2.

 

[Sunglasses_Ron]

Thanks for the Triple Scrooge

Probably my favourite sprayable product!

Ordered a pressure washer with snow foam today Nilfisk 1400W model, seems to have a good rep.

 

[Yellow Dave]

Ron, no real need for SRP and amigo. SRP will have more cleansers in it, but both have fillers albeit amigo will have more. Tripple in my oppinion cleanses and fills better than both

Have a look at jeffs sealant from Polished bliss, it lasts ages and looks ace.

Do you need a pressure washer to jet of iron x, or can it be done by hand? I want to try it but only wash by hand as we have a flat drive and no drainage.

Girlfriend has agreed to buy me a Snowfoam lance and 5l of Magifoam for my birthday at the end if the month

Just rinse it off and then I tend to give the car another quick once over with a weak shampoo mix to make sure it's all off.

Pressure washer probably uses less water than your open hose!

 

[Dan...]

What's the best way to clean applicators?

It does.

Basin of boiling water and fairy liquid, leave them soaking and let the water cool then Hand wash them/squeeze, re-rinse

 

[JD]

Or just shove them in the washing machine on a hot wash. No softener.

 

[Gally]

I don't machine wash my pads or apps. Just as quick doing them in the basin, leave the machine for towels.

 

[Jaff.]

Hydro2 - what a f**king thing! Its incredible!

should have used that instead of that pony finest I had on the focus!

 

[Scrooge]

Would've been awesome as routine wash top ups over the finest dude

Or you could use the dishwasher.

For that I blame you for not telling me about it sooner

 

[Scrooge]

Haha I apologise although I've been bleating on about it for a year

I know this is a jibe, but I'm amazed CarPro themselves didn't say something.

Oh, and Ant, Craig sent through a bottle of Reload for the Hydr02 issues, so I'll share that with you too.

 

[Gally]

Did he! I'll poke him in the eyes.

 

[Scrooge]

Craig is a diamond of a bloke!

 

[JD]

Completely agree. He was very good on the email. However, I am still very unsure I'll ever go near Hydr02.

 

[Gally]

FUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!

One of the nicest guys i've ever had the pleasure of meeting. Hates a latte....

Flol. Did you get my text when you were with him?

 

[Gally]

Ah I did! You're such a penis! He laughed!

ive no problem with carpro, they're my favourite manufacturer tbh.

But their finest isn't their finest product IMOIMO

 

[JD]

What about IYHOIYO?

 

[Jaff.]

FLOL f**king iPad!

Cheers Gally, worked a treat.

How about microfibre cloths?

 

[Sunglasses_Ron]

Spent pretty much all day on my mates Cmax.

Very pleased with the result. Triple is absolutely brilliant. Cheers Scrooge

Sorry about the crap pics, they really don't do it justice.

My mate was well pleased!

 

[Scrooge]

Nice job there dude!!

 

[Mr R.]

Where's the before shot's?

 

[JHead]

Is it just me, or does that o/s front tyre look flat.....? :s
