I just read some wash centre does it cheaply and I've never heard of it do was wondering what it entails.

I think it's when they wash the car and protect it and gives it a shine I think just reading a little more about it they are doing it for £20 other places are over £180 jur wanted to know if it's worth doing or shall I do the good old DIY job
Fiesta ST-3
Probably the same as supaguard... A huge con!

Why you say that mate you had a prev experience I take it?
Fiesta ST-3
Yeah, I've worked with a lad who does all the valeting for a vauxhall dealer... They charge around £300 for supaguard, but buy the stuff for about £20 quid, give the valeter an extra fiver for putting it on and pocket the rest. It's shocking stuff too IMO!

it is shocking tactics mate the guy who is offering this charges £20 so was wondering if it was a good deal or not and was wondering if it will make my paint all nice and shiny and protect it from the elements

without knowing exact details of the product is is hard to comment, but generally these products are only as good as the prep, which in most cases is a wash and dry, apply.

Dave that's some good stuff there gonna have a look online now have you used it yourself and how to do you apply ect.

It's £20 (and that'll be marked up and includes labour of the person doing it) and its applied with a damp sponge.
I'm simply suggesting you get what you pay for in life...
Read the guides which knowledgeable members have put a lot of time and effort in on here and make your own mind up.

C1 is not something to be taken lightly, hence why it is currently advertised as professional use. Most places are out of stock until GT get more deliveries next week.
The video shows how to apply it, but get it wrong and you'll need to machine polish it off. I wouldn't recommend it. Stick to C1.5 or C2, 6 months durability easy and simple as spray on, wipe over with a MF cloth, buff off
