While not wanting to get into the whole "beading signifies durability" debate, I thought these pics would be of interest. My Mum's car six weeks after I'd used PB spray and wipe and one coat of OCW. I asked my Mum if She'd put it through a car wash ( with wax spray ) She said no it hasn't been...

My willpower has collapsed again and I've ordered some SFX spot pads from Autopia :grinno: From what I've read the 4" pads develop more concentrated heat. If this is correct, the working times of the polish would be reduced? (in the case of OCP to about 3-4 hours :LOLOL ) I plan to do a...

Just thought I'd share a few pics of my Toyota. With one thing and another, it hadn't been washed/detailed in nearly four weeks, so I was wondering what contaminents had appeared. I was quite pleased that, after a wash with P21S, it was still smooth and fallout free. OCW to body/wheels...

I am going to do my neighbour's mid metallic green S-Type Jaguar - just the paint, as he keeps the rest up together very well. It's only around three months old, but the regular automated car washes are beginning to take their toll! I have the following products and wondered what you guys would...

The Rav4 is a 2003 and has been neglected until a couple of months back when I started to care for it every month.It lives next to a farm, so fly spots develop hours after you clean it! External process as follows: Wash - Meguiar's Soft Wash Gel Spot Clay -Mothers clay/lube Poorboys PwC with...

Tried my P.C. for a second time tonight (can't stop using it!) Had a SLIGHT scuff on my rear bumper from a car park "contact" tried ScratchX by hand months ago but looked just the same. After washing/claying tried FPII with a polishing pad (priming with a mist of water this time not Q.D.!)...

So, finally made the time to use the P.C. "properly" - this is what I did: Washed P21s Dried w/w Clayed bonnet with Clay Magic/#34,re-cleaned Final Polish II with DAS green polishing pad - After spreading speed 5 AIO with DAS blue finishing pad - speed 3 One coat of Wolfgang sealant by...

<center> <center> </center> Getting some practice in with the digital camera! AIO/Glanz/Signature

Just a quick shot of the Yaris after two coats of Signature. Previously I'd put a coat of Glanz on and clayed a couple of weeks before. I think I made a mistake by not spot claying again, as some parts were a little "bitty" Other shots to come when I can sort them out! Peter

I've tried to capture the orange peel on my wife's Ford Focus - believe me it looks so much worse in real life! Why do they let them out of the factory with such a poor finish? (rant Over):nixweiss :mad: Peter

A quick coat of Glanz was added to AIO (applied to the clayed car a week earlier) - it seemed to work quite well considering how easy it was to apply. Peter

I've always used a Q.D. to clay with, but after reading a few posts by other members I decided to try it during washing- I was amazed how much easier (IMO) it was! The Clay (Magic) did seem to get a bit soft but so did the tar etc , so it seemed to come off much easier.I used a fairly strong...

As a new website in the U.K. is now stocking Pinnacle(thanks to the guys who highlighted it!) I am really tempted to "invest" in some.The things I'm unsure of are as follows: Why the vast price difference between souveran paste and liquid souveran? Where does Signature wax fit in the line up-...

Hi guys, I've just discovered we can get the Meguiars detailer range over here. We use Autoglym on the cars at work(Klasse on mine!) but I was wondering what anyone thought of these three products and how they compared to the professional range. Final detail( 1 gal/5gal) -same as Final...

As a satisfied Klasse user I was wondering what the best Q.D. would be to use between applications. I have 1xAIO and 3xSG and don't have time to keep putting layers of SG on .Sonus High Gloss Acrylic Spritz seems ideal for the job, but I can't find anyone to supply to the U.K. I vaguely remember...

Hi guys, I've just started on the Klasse road and have found it pretty straightforward.Here's the story so far: Washed and dried car, applied AIO using a damp mf pad (great to use).Buffed off AIO per quarter panel, making sure I covered every minor spot/blemish.I found it very easy to use, but...

My workmate has been given Some cleaner and car wash from a "professional" Kit called TST 5000 with Teflon. It's supposed to be applied by dealers and is a sealant that lasts "at least five years" Have any of you guys heard of it? Apparently the firm hails from Pittsburgh. Many thanks, Peter

Hi guys, I,ve just been given a Maguiars catalogue for the U.K. As you guys are so experienced with the stuff I wondered what you thought of the following: Deep Crystal 3 stage paint system- cleaner,polish and wax (seperate products) Quik clay detailing system Also, how do they compare to...

As there is a wealth of experience on this forum I thought I'd ask: On my new Toyota Yaris T sport ( Great Fun!) the paint seems very good ,but I'm having some "Speed Wax and Speed Polish delivered.This seems to be a pure wax so I thought to apply a couple of thin coats of Autoglym Extra Gloss...

Hi Guys, I am looking for the Klasse and Pinnacle ranges of products, but I live in the United Kingdom. Is there anywhere I can get them over here? I'd like to try something different from Autoglym! Many thanks Peter
