Woke up to a lovely sunny day that I was not expecting so took the chance to do the winter paint prep and sealant today which was not really planned till next week or the week after. But at 18 degrees out it was too good to miss out on. Normal process would have been Autoglym Super Resin and...

Finally had a chance to try these out at the weekend. Paint was in ok shape was polsihed with Menzerna Final Finish in early September so was washed and dryed and then the car was glazed/polished by hand with Clearkote VM and then treated two coats of Blackfire Wet Diamond Sealant last...

I have recently revisted this by PC and 4 inch spot pads after various recommendations to give it another go after about a year. Wa steh must try on here a while back and I never really liked it tbh. In my revist I felt it didnt add much to the looks, but it is damn is it just not fantastic...

Its probably the norm on here, but it seems my current way to use up things I will never use otherwise. Currently - Autoglym Super Resin 50/50 mix with Autoglym Deep Shine Autoglym Super Resin 50/50 mix with Autoglym Superglym polish. Both the latter are pains to remove and the mix...

Autoglym Super Resin and Extra Gloss revisted. I have been using SRP for years occasionally using Carlack 68 or AIO in its place at times. I much pefer SRP for PC use as I dont really get on with AIO and machine. The EGP however has had little use of late - not until I did the daily hack a...

Trying to master my new camera today, weather was not ideal, mainly grey and overcast with a few sunny spells. The results:

Anyone got any views on this? I used it for the first time today even though I have had it for a few weeks, (Grabbed some from autogeek.net when they had there Souveran deals on, as it had to come all the way to the uk thought I would grab a some to tey to justify post costs). I used it on...

Today was intially planned as winter coat time for the car but the weather was good, I had finally got the full array of products that I had been collecting to make full use off my PC and tried them out before hand enough to feel confident enough to use them on my black car, I decided today was...

Well it turned up today, and I have to be honest it was brought on a wim, to try it out and see what it was all about, I really didnt think I would like it as much as I did, the whole spray wax is new to me, let alone a lasting sealant one. I see why so many people like it, ( well - I will do if...

One of my Pakshak Blue Waffle Weaves has ended up in the wash with some regular stuff and of course the dreaded fabric conditioner softener :( Is there anything I can do to save it when the cycle is done or is it too late? Cheers Rich

Following on from this thread http://autopia.org/forum/showthread.php?t=60723&page=4&pp=12 and recommendations on what to top my UPP/WG with a few recommendations came in for Nattys Blue. I didnt own this product so decided after a lot off reading on here to bite the bullet and get yet...

I got round to ordering and recieved a decent amount of swirl removers and polishes to take full advantage of the PC. I now have SSR's 1,2 and 2.5 and a bottle of Optimum Polish. Reading up on here Optimum is pad dependant when cutting. I want to remove some individual defects on my metallic...

Just about to do an order, can the PWC be used after say SSR 2.5 to do the same job as SSR 1? Cheers Rich

How many off you guys have had a chance to try this out? I had great hopes for this stuff, thinking it would be better than the Carnuba Spritz that I understand its replacing. After my first experince was a let down which resulted in a little minor streaking when used after wash, ( Nattys and...

After a few months of PC ownership and working on familys cars with good shape paint I really need to sort out a decent range of polishes to sort out other peoples cars. So far #80, 82, AG SRP, VM have been fine for my own and familys cars. But after tackling a few friends cars #80 and...

Have a few days off work and have decided to give the 182 some attention. Its been used a bit more than normal in the last few weeks and I had not really had any chance to detail it until today. Went out in this morning for a spirited drive and to drive a recommended supposed good local road...

As much as we all like to clean the cars , driving is what they are meant for. Took my Renault Clio 182 for its first taste of track action recently. My mate sent me the CD with the images from the hillclimb track at Prescott near Cheltenham a few weeks ago. Was good fun, nice an twisty so...

I think I have just found my new go to interior QD. Placed an order from Autopia the other day for a few bits I needed, being shipped to the UK its essential to get a decent order to make it worth while, on a wim I picked up a bottle. My current regime was Poorboys Natural Look to dress...

I brought my Clio back im March, first black car, brand new so paint was not in bad shape. For the first months I had been trying out products to look good on Black and had done a few shots off the car with various combos. Just delieved, AG resin, Clearkote VM, Poorboys EX and P21s...
