What have you ordered? *Detailing*

[Thrust-Rated]

I got some dodo juice born to be mild yesterday at FCS.
along with a drying towel and a sheepskin mitt from them too. These any good?

I also got a bottle of AG interior shampoo to try out.

 

[aucky]

Dropped a new £10 MF on Saturday (FFS). Could do with a couple more now.

 

[Gally]

Ouch! Not funny!

 

[aucky]

The stitching on my SV Micro fluffy is coming away as well.

Shinearama will probably replace it because it hasn't seen much action and they are utter legends.

 

[Gally]

Indeed. I think they'll be receiving my large order. Do they offer discount codes?

Been a while since i've bought anything!

 

[aucky]

Not sure, maybe call by phone. They usually do discounts on their open days (which is when I get my gear).
They will try and flog you the big Swissvax kit

 

[Gally]

Oh i'll get a discount. I'm Scottish, i've never paid full price for anything!

Off to make a basket!

 

[JD]

Cough, VAT, cough.

 

[Gally]

Ahem, accusations bwab!

 

[JD]

Lol, how the hell did you reach 27k posts?? Where the hell are you spamming?!

 

[Gally]

Another accusation. I know some people. Pay dem monies and they up your post count.

It's time for ne to order some new products.

I need to get my bumpers back into a black state rather then dull grey (being a freelander there's a lot of bumper!). NLTG last about a week before it fcuks off and before I go down the C4 root I'm thinking of trying autofinesse revive?

And I want to try a new glass sealant..I'm thinking G1 clearvision? My only issue with that is it can be an arse to remove can it not?

 

[Gally]

G1 will be fine. Plenty of you tube videos showing application mate.

Get C4. Revive is a decent lasting gel but C4 is what you need for large textured items imo.

Its nay bad. Youll like it.

 

[richy22]

Don't make me spend lots of monies!

 

[Addicted]

Just about to order some items:

* Autobrite Magifoam
* Iron X
* Bilberry Wheel Cleaner

Where would be the best place to get both of these from? As far as I can see IronX isn't on the AutoBrite website (so can't use the 8% discount, and would rather get them both at the same time!)

 

[gex23]

- Autosmart Tardis
- Autosmart Smart wheels
- Autosmart Ultramousse
- Valet Pro detailing wheel brush
- EZ Detail brush
- Sonus Der Wunder buffing cloths.

I'm still deciding between a Sonus washmitt and a DodoJuice yeti mitt, and also thinking of trying a sealant that will outperform the RaceGlaze 55 wax currently on the car.

[Addicted]

Oh and to add, I could also do with a new wash mitt, recommendations? If needed I'll make a new thread for my q's!

 

[Thrust-Rated]

I bought a dodo juice sheepskin mitt from FCS and it's loads better than my old noodle one Matt.

 

[aucky]

Yup the dodo mitts are pretty good. I've had a couple now.

 

[Addicted]

I went for:

Magifoam (5L)
IronX (500ml)
Bilberry Wheel Cleaner (1L)
California Scents (Cherry)
Meguiars Lambswool Mitt


I was going to go for the Dodo one but they didn't have the one I wanted in stock so will make do with this for now!

Very much torn between one of these and a Dodo Juice Supernatural or Yeti wash mitt....

 

[richy22]

Get a dooka...much better then the yeti

 

[Gally]

Too much and half of the stuff I do need was OOS! FML!

You've just made my mind up for me.

Too much and half of the stuff I do need was OOS! FML!

I suffered the same fate - had a full basket on CYC, left it for 2 days - went to order and i'd say 30% of the items were then OOS.

I just can't justify the cost of the wheel woolies tbh, maybe when I upgrade to the R26 ...... or just sell some of my waxes instead.

What's the point when C4 will last such a long time? Get it, apply it, sell it.

[Ben]

Auto Finesse Revive

 

[Junior Bear]

Just ordered some power seal


Gally that c1.5 you sent me is immense



Non corrected paintwork, no Decon or prep

But look at the shine still!

 

[Yellow Dave]

It's quite hard to beat C1.5 and C2 on silver's for clarity. I still have my doubts about them though

 

[Gally]

Yeah on Silvers they excel. Great finish on the 182 mate.

 

[gex23]

Just received my Dooka washpad and Daytona wheel brush - looking forward to trying them out .

 

[Chapppers11]

Has anyone had any issues with the EZ Detail wheel Brushes? the handle on the second one I have owned has come away again!

 

[Yellow Dave]

I'm very impressed with my EZ brush, is used on 2 - 3 cars a week and the handle / stem is still solid. Wish I''d bought it before all the other cr@ppy cheaper ones. How old is it?

 

[MatthewR]

Going to get some C5 in prep for my new wheels. I'm also going to have a look at some tyre dressings, any recommendations for a satin look one that lasts 1 week as i don't mind applying it weekly with the wash

I'm giving it the same usage, it's around 5 or 6 months old, I think.
