[VIICarCare]

Im so hooked! My fav is collinite + poorboys

Will be adding a pt gauge soon, and no doubt alot more stuff too!

 

[Bodge!]

impressive collection!

but i really can't see how people get "obsessed" with cleaning their cars.

bucket and sponge will do me!

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

Holy christmas!!

Puts my collection to shame!

 

[daviebroon]

i dont get it at all

 

[Bodge!]

im scared to think how much all of that set you back in total!

 

[VIICarCare]

Im scared too! When i brought my g220 back in july I payed £250 with two polishes + 4 pads, now they are going for £150!

Hey ho, its very easy to get hooked!

 

[Tigger]

Bloody hell Dawn - now I see your plate lol

 

[Scoot]

I had the same opinion. But when you see how different your car looks after a proper detail, then you'll probably change your mind!

 

[Tigger]

^ That's what got me hooked too

 

[duncansharp]

holy s**t!! serious collection.

 

[Guppy]

I'll drive down to your place and you can do mine if you like.

I would'nt even charge you

 

[James105]

Nice collection Dawn, some greats products there i see. I need to get a picture of mine up. You will have to swing round sometime

 

[SkidMarx]

Good investment really when it comes to re-sale value, not saying it will pay for itself but its hardly a waste of money.

 

[Bodge!]

i dont have the time, patience, money, to spend on car cleaning stuff.
i kno if i went to buy a car and looked at it, i wouldnt be overly fussed if the paint was swirly or what ever.

 

[BioHzrd]

I though my collection was big !

To the folk who say i cant see how your hooked, like shadowness said once you give your car a proper clean and see how it look once your done you want to keep it that way.

Thats when OCD kicks in ! and your bank manager starts smiling!

 

[Bodge!]

I dont think i would.

Pointless doing it this weather, and i really cannot simply be arsed with spending all the £ and effort.

Its car, it gets driven, it gets dirty, it gets washed with a bucket and sponge.

 

[Slammed172]

Serious OCD.

I see no point in half of that, just using on one car.

Remind me never to try and take pictures of mine then !

 

[Slammed172]

Lol, i could imagine most peoples collections.

Im just a stingy b*****d that buys enough and no more than enough, lol.

 

[Rich]

I had a cull and chucked some away over Xmas, need to get some other bits sold.

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

But just a small collection can make such a big difference.
For instance, I washed my car and my mums. Mines now in the garage ready for all the extra stuff tomorrow.
But my mums car had really bad swirls and light scratches over it. I said to her do you want me to quickly polish it, with the intention that I would 'quickly' go over the car with some SRP.
She said not to bother (as she doesnt relly want anything more than a wash)
Just to show her, I quickly polished one panel with SRP, and showed her the difference.
She said 'Bloody hell that looks good!'
Most of the light scratches were 'gone' and it looked so much better, especially as its a black car!
So if my mum, who has NO interest in cars, was amazed by the difference, you will be too!

[DanFreemanPhoto]

[clairemae]

Is the nattys paste wax any good? was thinking of getting the red one

 

[Curley]

Nice collection there.

Rich, may be interested in some products too.

 

[oz_clio]

dawn, info on where you got those brushes at the front please!

 

[YorkshireDaz]

Nice collection Dawn

 

[mradam87]

Good to see that poorboys stuff in your collection, I use the same - the red and blue nattys give a nice deep gloss to the cars

Looks like a small fortune there though haha

 

[VIICarCare]

dawn, info on where you got those brushes at the front please!

got the red banded & double ended ones from elite car care, and the new unused one from sereous performance.

Cheers guys, still need lots more stuff!

 

[m4rkie23]

my collection isnt that big. (i would like it to be bigger but i dont have the cash!)

very impressed!

 

[JD]

looking through the pics and i can see a couple of items that i dont have, but most that i do, and a few that you dont . . . .

but my "collection" is at all ends of the garages!!!!! scary that i just walk from one end of the garage to the other and still know where everything is when i am working on my car!

jamie

 

[ROSS18]
