Update on the combo I tried last weekend. I've covered over 750 miles this week including a trip to the middle of nowhere via several farmyards so she was, ahem, a little mucky.:D Washed with 1Z Perls and added a 2nd coat of Glanz today then followed Richt's advice and topped one side with...

Prepped car using RMG/YCM and SSR2 & 2.5 where needed by PC. 2 coats of WG and I then followed Nick T's instructions for spit shining using Souveran. I really enjoyed doing this if it doesn't sound too strange (mind you, this is autopia :) ) and I found it relatively simple. Hard to say at this...

Very pleased with this combination on silver. Application by hand using foam pads for both the SRP and Glanz wax. Glass NXT glass cleaner:up good stuff indeed. Wheels SRP, tyres 4* x 2 and wheelwells Neilsen Flair. The SRP & Glanz work well together IMHO - leave a nice wet finish

New to me in the UK - anyone have any experiences with them? I picked up some tyre swipes and wax applicators and the store I got them from (my second choice Meguiars stockist after Alex) had a fairly extensive range of brushes, MF's and so on.

OK chaps, please add your name to this thread if you want some Propel pads. Please add quantity of each pad so I can ask Excel for prices including shipping. I'll keep this open until next Tuesday and then get prices - fair enough? AndyC - 1 blue, 1 green & 3 yellow

As I guess many of you will, I've accumulated a lot of spray bottles (QD, APC, tyre cleaners, glass cleaner etc etc) and they're currently all in the bottom of one of my cabinets which is a PITA to get them out, put them away again. Maybe I'm just lazy but has anyone got/seen any kind of...

Thought I'd try my rotary on my wheels as they're currently off the car whilst I paint the wheelwells. The centres are supposed to be machined and lacquered but 16 years have taken their toll and the laqcuer's started peeling/flaking. Ideally they need a refurb but for now I figured I'd try...

I'd like to introduce you all to my new helper, my daughter Chloe aged 5.5. Dab hand with wheels and er hosing the car and Daddy down after washing :D

I've tried a search on this without success but has anyone got experience with; 1. Painting wheel hubs/centres 2. Painting brake calipers What am I saying - this is autopia :D of course someone will have done this! Richt has already given me a few pointers but I want to achieve a...

I have to take my car to have its new suspension fitted tonight. Fingers crossed the weather stays reasonably dry as I've just put 4 layers of WG on it. I have most of the usual shampo suspects but has anyone had particularly good results with a single soap on a WG prepped car...

Just received my order from www.atomiza.co.uk 5 spray bottles 3 chemical resistant sprayheads 2 hi foam sprayheads ( 3 squeezer bottles 5 round tyre dressing sponges 5 crescent tyre dressing swipes and.... a pad cleaning tool Total £35-ish including Citylink. Prompt &...

Richt very kindly let me try this tyre dressing at the weekend and I thought I'd post a brief report as the car's since covered close to 500 miles in a mixture of warm sunny weather and heavy rain, minor roads and motorways. In appearance it's a slightly oily feeling clear yellow liquid. I...

Busy day yesterday - cleaned my daily driver first thing then PC demo then WG'd my garage queen, results below. I'd already used SSR2.5 on the car some weeks ago and all I did in preparation for the WG was 2 coats of Carlack 68 Bonnet reflection after 1 coat of WG Money shot :D...

I'm giving a PC demo this Saturday morning at home. If anyone wants to come along please PM me. The idea really is a mixture of "try before you buy" and maybe some hints & tips and anyone's free to come along, whether you're thinking of buying or you have already. PM me if you're...

I detailed both of these for the first time last Monday. They belong to colleagues of my GF and I've already got several other regulars at her office. Same process for each Washed with Megs Wash Strips Wheels with Wonder Wheels - strong stuff but see note below! Clayed with Sonus...

I decided to try Z16 after seeing GSRStilez's recent post. I followed his suggested method - ie EO A2Z to clean tyres, dry, apply Z16, leave for 30 minutes minimum and remove any residue. I also applied UPP gel to my GF's car at the same time. Z16 was done within 3 days:eek: No sheen...

OK, first up some truly horrid pics. Apologies in advance for the links as I've still not got the hang of attaching images to posts - any advice gratefully received! These were taken midway through a 600 mile round trip to the North of England last week (Yorkshire & Humberside) - scenery was...

Happened to be in Daventry earlier today and just happened to drop into Megs UK HQ and happened to come away with a 05 Brilliant Solutions and pro catalogues, oh and 3 Supreme Shine MF and 2 Glass due fibre super toewls. Initial impressions are very good - the MF's are very soft and plush -...

I've not read any discussion about actual use of this product before so I'm not sure whether anyone else has used it. Several other UK Autopians mentioned that Carlack 68 is virutally the same as AIO, the main difference being the packaging (bright yellow 1000mls contained). It's described...
