    Sonus trim & motor kote - glossy?

    Cobra MF Vs Pakshak?

    Cobra super-plush deluxe MF towels are now available in the UK, how do these compare to the PakShak ultra-plush towels, anyone tried them side-by-side? The Cobra is 16 x 24" Vs the 16 x 16" of the PakShak towel (my only gripe with the PakShak towel, I prefer 16 x 24 size). Any...

    Menzerna?

    Menzerna is made in Germany right? How come it isn't available in Europe then, only places in the USA? I want to try some Menzerna FMJ.

    Natty's blue Vs DP MaxWax

    Tried a couple of panels today, the front wings, did one wing with WG sealant then DP MaxWax and the other with WGS and Poorboy's Natty's blue - the entire car had been previously done with RMG/UPP/WG etc. so had a good base. Natty's blue side: DP MaxWax side: Although both very...

    Best for plastic?

    What's the best stuff for using on instrument cluster plastic, mine has a lot of fine scratches I'd like to clear up. Don't say Plexus because I've tried to get it in the UK and I can't - typical useless Britain!

    Optimum polish with PC - first go.

    I have my Dad's 9-year old Renault Megane for 2 weeks while he's away on holiday, so I thought I'd give Optimum a go as his paint is pretty bad, never been polished or waxed EVER! (should have put it in the extreme detail this month!). I had to clay the roof and bonnet a couple of times as it...

    Small fine mist bottles

    I found a place that sells empty small bottles with a fine mist spray, they cost £1.99 each, holds 200ml. They also have a smaller one that holds 50ml/2oz and they're £0.75 each. I wanted to put together a small kit I can carry in the car, so searched for small fine misting bottles, found...

    PB Bug Squash?

    Anyone tried Poorboy's Bug Squash yet? Even with a good coating of wax these darned bug guts seem to weld themselves onto my front bumper. I've tried Meguiars bug and tar remover and it was awful stuff, hated it.

    Price comparison?

    Makes for sad reading for us Brits, but I did some comparing of UK prices Vs USA prices, no wonder we import stuff from Autopia (never mind that we can't get many things either!) Meguiars NXT shampoo - £12.99 - USA - $7.95 (£4.52) Meguiars NXT tech wax - £14.99 - USA - $14.95 (£8.50)...

    Detailer's Pride - good stuff?

    I was reading a leaflet all about Detailer's Pride products - sounds very good stuff, anyone tried any of it? The 'Max Wax' and 'Surface Shield' products sound very interesting, I read that the Max Wax is just like Pinnacle Souveran?

    RMG + UPP = slick!

    I used RMG and UPP for the whole car today for the first time, and it came up great! I prepped the paint with SSR2, Scratch-X, etc. and also used the new Sonus ultra-fine clay and lube for the entire roof, came up glass smooth, so worked very well. I then applied RMG to half the car, then UPP...

    Scratch-X with PC?

    Is it safe to use Megs Scratch-X on a low speed with a PC? If it is, what's the best pad to use? I have cobweb-effect scratches, not swirls, and Scratch-X seems to shift them by hand but I want to speed things up and use the PC.

    New Sonus Detailing Spritz

    Anyone tried the new Sonus QD - the description sounds very interesting? "Sonus combined the qualities of its original “wax-specific� protective detailing sprays (Acrylic Spritz and Carnauba Spritz) to create a new ultra high gloss detailing spray that’s compatible with all...

    Best process for UPP?

    Big thanks to Cesario from Portugal who is sending me some UPP - now what is the best process prior to applying it and can anything be used as a topper for it, or just 2/3 layers of UPP? I've never used UPP before. I have loads of CK and PB products - just wondering if anyone has a tried and...

    I have a show this Sunday and not sure what to use - I've heard that Clearkote gives a wetter shine which is what I want, does CK give a wetter look than PB? :buffing: I'm going to do CK RMG - YCM - CMW - QS as a QD or ... PB Polish w/carnuba - EX - Natty's paste - Sonus carnuba spritz...
