Just ordered another wheel wash mitt and wax applicators inc delivery for just over £10. Wanted the big spray bottle but they was out of stock.

 

[Amos91]

The wash mitt is good. I use it mostly to clean the rear side of the spokes where you can't reach with a brush.

 

[Sir Nancy Flowers]

My £140 order just came to £38.50 inc delivery. Chuffed!

 

[Gally]

Missed out on those pressure sprayers! I wanted to order 10! 😂

too slow mark

i wanted a couple of the sprayers but the were sold out by like 9.31 so i didnt bother ordering anything lol

 

[imprezaworks]

Tried. Few bits today. Very impressed with application of the auto glym tyre gel.

 

[imprezaworks]

Who has used amigo and 50 cal.

Can't decide which I prefer, I have both. Maybe amigo for application, both superb finish, cal for smell lol

 

[rbeazer]

Somebody recommend me a glass cloth. Tried the auto finesse one as i bought it with crystal glass cleaner, cleaner is great, cloth is not.

Was looking at rag company diamond one, anyone used them ??

 

[imprezaworks]

 

[Matt e]

I've tried the rag company one as its about the same as the auto finesse one

I think a very short pile mf cloth works best

I've got an EZ car care one (fish scale I think?) That I got for free delivery. Mediocre products but the cloth actually works 🤣

 

[imprezaworks]

These are decent.

Get a klin one. Forget the rest.

Enjoyed some detailing today on my brother's new Fiesta. Titan glass coatings all round. They are glass instead of ceramic and mega Impressed me as did the ultra topper. (you can buy ultra but public cannot buy the coatings)

It's unforgiving and I forget how difficult the high end coatings are to master.

Has anyone used the Autoglym Polar range? I got the whole kit recently including the lance and I must say I’m very impressed with the application. The Polar Seal is beading like crazy, let’s see how the longevity is.

I've been an advocate for polar seal for a while now. I love the stuff. I switched to some other lance based sealants and even some spray bottle ones. Still am yet to find something that's as easy as polar seal. And it lasts well too providing you've a good base to start with

 

[TimR26]

Looking for recommendations for a sealant and wax to use on a liquid yellow R26 and magnetic grey Fiesta.

I’ve got tester pots of DJ Banana Armour, AF Illusion, and AF Desire.

 

[imprezaworks]

For ease the turtle wax seal n shine is really good. Will be trying it again over the weekend.

 

[Stay Puft]

A clean and layer of black hole.

 

[imprezaworks]

Try amigo or 50 cal mate. Either beats blackhole.

 

[Coby.]

And then apply an LSP otherwise first rainfall and its gone

 

[imprezaworks]

This stuff is very nice to use.

 

[Gally]

Carchem make a lot of products for a lot of people so unsurprisingly it's decent.

Just making a plan for my new company car. Thinking either Titan costing base or gyeon cure. And kamikaze overcoat v3 as topper. Ultimate protection!

Can’t rate Kamikaze overcoat highly enough. Awesome stuff.

Ive just bought a new car. Focus ST line X in desert Island blue, and decided after 4 years of barely cleaning my last car I'm going to be a bit nicer to this one.

Just looking for a refresher/advice.

Paint work is fairly decent, just some light swirls. My options are menzerna polish, lime prime, AF tripple which should I use with my DA?

For protection I have some AF tough coat or dodo juice supernatural hybrid wax. I was looking into sonax bsd and C2V3, but might as well use the old stuff I've bought.

Finally I have a small amount of megs last touch QD, does sonax bsd replace this or is it more of a replacement for AF tough coat?

Thanks in advance!

What's happening you old çunt! Long time no see! You can't just come back in here swinging around questions and not offer some foreplay!

 

[imprezaworks]

Tempted by a large pot of vics red....

Kids and work dont leave me much energy for cars these days! You still got the FRP? I dont post much, but still peruse the forum, it's a habit that's hard to kick.

Haha! Tell me about it!

Haven't had an FRP in quite a while, company car for the last 5 years pretty much! Do still love cleaning cars though! Company cars running around with every surface ceramic coated!

 

[leeds2592]

Do it.

That coupled with Prima Amigo on my old black A3 looked mega.

Jn fact, I bet I've still got the Vics red in the garage somewhere. Might dig it out next time I cleaned the cars and use it.

 

[imprezaworks]

£30 too

 

[leeds2592]

I take it that's second hand? Do they even make it anymore?

 

[imprezaworks]

Yeah hardly used.

 

[Gally]

Buy some Britemax vantage instead.

 

[leeds2592]

Buy the Vics!

 

[imprezaworks]

Anyone recommend a heavy cut pad for a dual action.

 

[imprezaworks]

Fusso range. Anyone used it as there hundreds to choose from.
