If you could only have 4 detailing products which products would you choose?

By products I don't mean specific makes, I mean things such as glass cleaner, quick detailer, snow foam, pre-wash, shampoo, wheel cleaner, tyre dress, rain repellent, wax, dash cleaner, air freshener etc etc.

(Buckets, jet wash, lances, cloths don't count as any of the 4)

For me it would be:

1) Snow foam
2) Shampoo
3) Wheel cleaner
4) Wax

You get the idea :)

True very true but that would be the same even if it was just a standard paint mate

Think I'd rather have wheel cleaner rather than snowfoam... Always wonder how much (or little) snowfoam actually does.. Especially in the winter felt like it was just a waste of time really.

I never ever use a wheel cleaner never all you guys that do must be heavy on the brakes

Maybe if the s3 got up to speed you would need to use brakes

Yeah l would recommend getting one mate but only with magnetic dampers and 19" alloy wheels as this combo by far improves the way the car handles and from a 15 plate onwards they came with better standard equipment from then on

Won't start until 3 this afternoon, hoping to get most of the paint corrected today so will definitely miss the fitba tonight but hopefully have it finished tomorrow tonight by 8 bells curing times hold you back mate got 2 coats of mohs and 2 coats of Syncro to apply and cure so that'll take up 6 hours on its own

Like the pic :icon thumright:

I thought with a ceramic coating you had to keep it in a controlled environment for 24hrs curing?
