What to buy....100£



Ali

  V6, Trackhawk, GTS
Right, Vee's off to the bodyshop in the coming wk, So when it comes out it's getting a full 2day detail...

Polish - I'm happy with the 3.02 Menz and i've got a fair few 4,6in pads to correct.

Wax - I'm happy with my Wax, Swissvax ONYX is still the best i've used.

So 100£ to spend on brushes, Accessories..........Suggest away?!

Autotartis? :S been using APC, but when i do the arches i think i need something stronger again.

Zymol HD cleanse?
Lime lite?
Stuff more windows?
Another tyre dressing?
Something for arch liners?
 
  Broken Diesel Megane :(
Ali, i am going to pick up some of the autosmart at polished bliss this weekend if you want me to get you some. save on shipping anyway? if there is anything else you need from them, let me know before sunday and i will pick it up.

i have gone back to the blackfire tyre gel. used it on that scooby i did, and it is STILL on there. really good stuff. can also be layered, but make sure you remove the excess and leave about an hour between coats.

Arches - Megs Super Degreaser if APC is no cutting it.

HD Cleanse is a pain to use but produces the nicest finish (just) is Lime Lite out now ? I stick to Swissvax Cleaner Fluid before Onyx these days.

Windows - Just wax the glass as you would the paint.

Not found anything to rival Blackfire on the tyres still.

Arch liners - I just use AG Bumper Care Gel, works well enough to nead water on them.
 
  CS Dungeon
Autosmart Tardis - Tar Spots
Blackwow - Trim
Meg's Hyper Dressing - Arch's
303 Aerospace Protectant - Engine Bay
Blackfire long lasting tyre gel - Tyres
Megs Super De-greaser to clean arch's and tyres

Should keep you busy for a while

Save your cash pretty boy and take me out for dinner :eek:



















Seriously ask yourself do you really need any more products ?? I have just got rid of a load i never / hardly used stuff, now im in a flat i just dont have the room so trying to cut it down to just two boxes. If you really need something get Megs Super De-greaser to clean arch's and tyres like Rich said

not seen you since. last time i seen you, you were mulling over which white paint, from the 19 different shades of white, to choose!
 
I put my name down for that EZ detail brush group buy, and think next thing im gonna try is Dodo LimePrime or what ever its called.

If your after microfibres, go for the blue ones from CYC, they are huge!

Carlack glass cleaning kit. Some two months on and it's still beady-nice on my windows.

I need to get this at some point too.

Ali do you have a foam lance yet? If not get one, awesome piece of kit once you get it working! Then get the Wax version of Snow Foam and try out that Lime Lite product if its out yet.

Should have enough change for a Pukka Pie :D

Ali, if it's coming back form the bodyshop... you don't really want to use polish on fresh paint do you?

Out of interest what you having done, not those pink polka dots you were so keen for?!? ;)

New bonnet, and full front end repray, inc arches and skirts/ skirt ends. And the rear bumper is getting cut out. Exhaust polished.

Correct! it's oven baked anyway! Non oil based paints so not threat of damage!

Does not matter what paint is used always fine to polish.

You allowed to wax it straight away then too ?

Can't answer that... :S

I work in a bodyshop, i'd leave it a full day before detailing it. and yes you can wax straight after polish then. they don't sit in the oven long, and are easily marked/smudged with fingerprints etc for a while after being painted.
