That is what I didJust wondered what others used. Productive day, Q5 and JCW properly cleaned. Spent about 5 hours on them
Nice one @q5man. You like ‘clean pipes’

Haha, I know what you mean, hate the f*cking gravel, replaced a month or so ago, but no point doing proper drive until track is done. I do keep thinking I must take the car elsewhere for some shots (with canon DSLR) but just can’t be ars@d when done.
Currently only iPhone 6S, waiting to see what apple announce in September. No point going android as whole family on IOS.
Tips do come up nicely, but both cars were properly blinging today.
Gotta keep those tips nice. Wouldn’t want any pitting

. Have to finish BSD. Ain't using CG V7, Reload or Cure on anyone's car but mine . The car was in a really poor state. Paint properly effed up. Scratches and swirls you name it. Car had been washed regularly either in drive throughs or £5 hand car washes.

As most insignia's are.... neglected???it probably looks better after your work than it did when it was new mate.....its a kinda pearlescent grey paint....neighbour had a Astra....in that colour.....and if ye looked long enough at the paint ye would get dizzy.....with all the swirls...on it....lol
Hi guys ive been a lurker for a while.
I have an A6 ultra black edition on a 64 plate that has cquartz on it and recently i bought some ONR wash and the Big Red sponge. i've used it once up to now and it is amazing,it does a decent job and gets rid of the need to get all the gear out,hose,pressure washer etc... which when you live in a terraced house is a major chew. It's the best thing i've bought for the car.
Cheers guys

Neil. Barkeepers Friend will get that ghosting off. You'll think you've removed it with other glass polishes, but it'll come back, not with Barkeepers Friend.
Must try this barkeepers friend. Not that I have seen this ghosting on my current car, but drove me mad in last A6. As you say @pxr5, kept calm Ming back from the dead
I thought you said last week no more detailing gear for a few months

Yeah i did but my mindset is this kit combined with my existing kit should see me through the winter also ordered cloths from the TRC some new 600 GSM eagles and also glass cleaning clothsI thought you said last week no more detailing gear for a few months

Nice haul, told you it would only last a week
bathe is good stuff! Not tried their snow foam, but bathe, and bathe+ good stuff, as is the big and grime remover. Let us know thoughts on snowfoam when you have had chance to use.
Thanks for the heads up - better than methalated spirts the wife advised would do the job !
Far more than a week if you don't count the polishers lol whichddon't really count... Or do they lol, the last time l bought products was 10 weeks ago mate Syncro kit and bathe and the Syncro kit is still for sale @£60 for anyone who wants to put the best ceramic coating on their car on the domestic marketNice haul, told you it would only last a week
Mate, I don’t my take the mickey out of buying stuff, as I do it myself loads
. Latest purchase...Carpro Perl for black engine trim.Any tips on dash scratches as properly annoy me when sun shines on it. Been so careful with spray and using brushes to no avail
No mate can't help with the interior scuffs and marks how the hell do these get inflicted and exactly where on the dashboard ?Mate, I don’t my take the mickey out of buying stuff, as I do it myself loads

This may sound a bit anal but give it a quick hand-wash in the bath .. . And then let it dry over a drying horse oh don't let it dry in direct sunlight or use fabric conditioner.... Whilst washing....This arrived yesterday have to say its a deeeep pile
Ps some washing machines can struggle to wash these drying towels as they get very heavy with water during the wash cycle
about time you grabbed yourself a tufshine tyre brush, good to see

Just you remember yer place my young Padawan. .... lol didn't even know its make lol just got it as looked the right size for low profile tyres
Ps not finished yet ultimate finish have a 10% discount on offer til the 27th of this month going to get some more pads and compounds
First wash... And every other wash if you want,, if your going sling it in the machine wash it on a 30 degree quick wash on its own non- bio liquid and it will last for years and don't wash after each use wash only when it gets dirty
Im looking at buying a clay kit and just wondering whether to go for soft , medium or hard clay ? Got an A3 Brilliant Black .
Buying again eh. .. Lol
Eh. .... safe bet Medium clay
