Recommend Me Some Products

I recently bought myself a TVR Tamora, as a project to restore back to its former glory (http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?609120-TVR-Tamora-Project&highlight=tvr+tamora) a few of the cosmetic items and other such matters have been fixed, but now I want to give the car a decent detail, being bright orange I'm not sure which wax/sealant to go for, I have always used Dodo Juice purple haze on my clio but its says its suited for darker coloured cars. What options should I look for, also any polishes and pre wax cleaners.
Thanks Rob

It all depends on how far you want to take it. Do you have a machine polisher or you doing it by hand?

 

[robbygraham]

all by hand, would like a machine polisher but a bit cautious doing it myself

Hi mate if you're doing it by hand then you want to Cleanse > Glaze > Seal it in. Purple haze is fine mate. You'd need around 6 layers to make any difference in colour. Honestly it's mostly marketing. Keep it and spend it on products for prepping the paint.

Then seal in with PH. Will look fantastic.

If you want a selection which covers all products in one hit then auto finesse have got a gift set for £80. Has one of each of their products. Would be a great buy and their products are getting rave reviews. I love em and it comes with a sealant which is sooo easy to use

Gally do you rate Rej? ive got a bottle but not got round to using it. Not sure why i bothered buying it tbh. Already got prime strong and other pre cleaners.

It's good mate. Cleansers all do different things mate. Prime cleans, rejuvenate can correct and fill slightly. Prime doesn't correct or fill.


Just depends what you're looking for. On corrected paint you would use prime. On a car that isn't perfect use Rejuvenate. I like Zaio but it's not cheap. Lots of amazing cleansers out there. Lusso is another pure cleanser, no fillers just a cleanser that leaves a lovely finish.

That AF kit seems like a decent price considering what you get with it.

Ah right ok. I found Prime Hid marring. Ill find a use for it im sure. Jusyt seen some good pics where its pulled a lot of muck from pannels so thought id give it a shot.

Nothing cleans paint like Prime that's why I use a Glaze after because prime leaves a pure paint finish. Even after correction prime still pulls dirt from the paint.

It was discussed recently that cleansing twice may also be beneficial. Cleanse - polish - cleanse. You only have to look at how dirty the polishing pads get when correcting.
