My S3 8v (daytona Grey) has red callipers and i'm bored with them after a few years. I reckon the Porsche viper green is too much for a man of my mature years. Is yellow just as bad ? I reckon it would show up well against the paintwork. The turquoise-ey blues and the like don't do it for...

Looks absolutely fantastic ! What year is your car ? I have a 2015 S3 with front sensors. Could the RS grill be fitted to that do you know ?

Enjoy it Jassy mate. Look forward to the pics once you've detailed it :)

Hi folks. My garden hose has sprung a major leak so looking for a replacement for use with Karcher K5 compact PW. Standard Hozelock hose has served me well but age has caught up with it. Ideally looking for replacement that won't kink so easily but some I've seen online aren't recommended for...

Jassy mate - make sure you get gloss black bits done in XPEL too. Door pillars ? Not sure what else but mine still perfect after 5 years :)

Who's doing your Xpel PPF Jassy ? Hope it's AR detailing at Hillington - best in the business.

All good Jassy thanks. Staying sane is as good as it gets for now LOL ! S3 is good - no issues and PPF still doing it's job keeping the paint chip free ! TTS looks top notch matey. Twin turbo hairdryer :tearsofjoy::tearsofjoy: My detailing query for you today relates to the wife's Discovery -...

So Jassy - what's your new chariot then ? Not been on the forum for a while so missed that chat....

I was looking for ideas for polishing pad cleaners. Chemical Guys and others do bespoke products with matching brushes which look good but then I saw Jon (?) on Forensic Detailing demonstrating cleaning pads with APC and a toothbrush. Seemed pretty effective. Anyone else use that method and...

My Karcher K5 compact was just over 3 years old when it gave up the ghost. Turned out to be the fuse. I guess it'll be on it's last legs now so interested to see recommendations and what you end up going for BH.

Hi Craig I'm relatively new to the machine polishing lark too and got the Das 6 pro plus from a recommendation on here. Site sponsor in2detailing was recommended and i got the machine and pads and polishes (Scholl) in a bundle. Pretty sure it was Jassy my fellow Glaswegian on here who...

Would UPOL slow acting degreaser (panel wipe) do the same job ? Should that be diluted or applied neat after polishing ?

Thanks guys - all advice much appreciated. I won't get a chance to try this for a few days but will report back on success or otherwise !

I have recently bought a Clearmount to hold my iPhone 8 plus. It comes with both magnet and cradle. Do the air vent covers pull off easily to allow you to fit the cradle and also does anyone have a recommendation for a phone cover that is sturdy enough but will still work with the magnet ...

First wash for a while - been WFH for 5 weeks so car has hardly moved. Neighbour over the back had been using some kind of concrete cutting saw or something and the dust is hellish. First step was to head to local Morrison’s to use hot pre wash and cold rinse (no brushes to be clear !) to...
