Help with Shopping list

[theduck]

Currently I have and use:

AG Shampoo
AG SRP
AG EGP

I have just been bought a Karcher Pressure Washer as an early birthday present, and my girlfriend has said she will get me a foam lance for it so I am intending to get the I4D Foam Lance and I4D Snow Foam. What I want recomendations for is:

Different/Better Shampoo
Easier to apply Sealant and/or Wax
Tyre Dressing
Glass Cleaner
Drying Towel
Clay
Lube
Tar Remover
and anything else you think I have missed

I am not looking for anything thats going to set the world on fire, but just to improve on what I have at the moment. As I am going to be ordering from I4D anyway I'd like to be able to order the lot from them. At this price, I'm not sure if colour comes into it much but the cars a pale metallic blue. Also would be looking for products with as a best compromise between durability and looks.

You might find you want to build up what you have steadily.

Meguirs Shampoo Plus
Sonus Der wunder towels (trio set)
DODO Juice - Purple Haze
Meguirs lambswool washmitt
A microfibre Shitmit which you can use for wheels
2 buckets.


anything else you get is up to you. But iMO thats good to get you started seing as youve already got srp. If i were you id get the above and decide where you want to go from there.


Tyre Dressing - Blackfire Long lasting tyre gel
Glass Cleaner - I use mr muscle lol, but have a skeg about the net for megs glass cleaner and some chemical guys stuff.

Clay - Sonus Green (its not very agressive and wont leave marring like others do)

Lube - Anything will do, i use some flash car shampoo in a spray bottle, very diluted though i must stress.

Tar Remover - Autosmart tardis

 

[Michael172]

youll find people recomend different things tbh, its about what you like using. Ive build my s**t up over the last year now, and im only just getting round to buying a Machine polisher.

Thanks Michael. I should have said in the original post, i already have wool mit, 2 buckets and plenty of microfibre cloths

Some decent suggestions there...

Would swap the sonus towels for the CG miracle dryer.

And wax for Swissvax ONYX!

And wax for Swissvax ONYX!

Im yet to try it, my next wax will be swissvax Onyx, Sapphir or BOS, only half way through my purple haze tbh.

 

[Michael172]

I do find 2 layers of purple haze very durable and the results are still fantastic, i was reccomended it by rich as a good wax to start with. Application and removeal is very easy.

 

[Rich]

Not a big fan of Purple Haze, find the extra for the Onyx.

Different/Better Shampoo - Duragloss or Megs Shampoo Plus
Easier to apply Sealant and/or Wax - Sealant Jeffs Acyrlic Jett Trigger, Wax Swissvax Onyx
Tyre Dressing - Blackfire Long Lasting Gel
Glass Cleaner - Polish - Autoglym, normal stuff anything handy tbh!
Drying Towel - Sonus Der Wunder Drying
Clay - Megs Quick Clay
Lube - Shampoo and Water
Tar Remover - Autoglym or Autosmart

Grab some Sonus Towels for polish and wax removal and all should be good.

Will get you all the above in my list anyway !

 

[theduck]

ok thanks.

Rich if you haven't tried the miracle dryer then you must! Leauges better than the sonus, which is now my wheel and arches dryer! lol.

Purple hazes is ok. I prefer 50:50 over it tbh!

 

[Rich]

Everytime I go to buy one it is always out of stock!

After filtred water I have little drying to do luckily.

50/50, P21s, Vic Concours are all better than the Dodo IMO.

chemical guys wash and gloss for the wash...little goes a long way and makes your sponge/mitt glide over the paint.
