@q5man - With the H2Go I've found if you warm the windscreen up with the heater before you use it its helps application
Nice one, thanks BH
Frankly me Dear.. I don't give.. . a damn lol
The Purestar towels / mitts / etc really are great.
I kind of know that already, but am chuckling away here imagining you giving your tyres/windscreen a blow dry with Mrs’ hair dryer
At least its better than using Make up brushes on the interior @Tashfeen lolI kind of know that already, but am chuckling away here imagining you giving your tyres/windscreen a blow dry with Mrs’ hair dryer
One word starts with J and ends with K even the more expensive Si02 quid detailers aren't that good ie Angelwax Enigma, you'd actually be better applying a Siloxane filled product like wet coat or similar, directly on your wet paint then buff it off
Problem is @jassyo06 like every product that is applied to a wet car is that you dilute the product down quite a bit hence I'm not a fan & don't use this type of product
Always seems a bit of a waste to me
But I do realise that these type of products do work for some
Subjective ? Who said that ? lol
Haha, I was actually thinking about that when typing the above lol
had these delived this moring freebees so will try thwm and keave feed back.

These Siloxane products need water/moisture for them to activate and are far more effective that a SI02 Quick detailer mate like l said l have used them Si02 quick detailer and they don't offer anything over a normal QD

Non related to detailing products,but i've chosen the rest of my Home cinema kit.....just need to go in on Sunday first thing to richersounds glasgow to haggle a deal,got a quote for it all but like all sales folks they like to add on the stuff you dont need,was looking at the Yamaha ysp5600 soundbar but to be honest l dont think i would be content with this in comparison to what l was use too in the past......So far i am getting the REL T5i Sub,Kef T301..Pair,Kef 301c,Reciever been given the chance of a OYKYO 686 OPEN BOX....some ****** brought it back because his indoors did not comply...lol....but the price of it against a new one is negliable,the Pioneer LX receiver...new like I had before are very bad value for money....look awesome but not THX approved...
Some serious kit there mate, I have had REL sub, KEF speakers and Onkyo receivers, top top gear

Had a serious compulsion today to buy the RS3 Saloon in the Hamilton Audi showroom.....£125 more a month more.....cracking car but poor spec....but looked stunning in Daytona...only options where extended leather,keyless,Daytona....by the way my car was in for its first service....lol if it had Privacy Glass and the Bang&Olufsen l would parted with the £6k deposit......
Ooh....... Home cinema upgrades , nice ! My two cents if ya interested
. THX certification only really comes into play if you are using THX certified speakers as well as a THX certified receiver.Can highly recommend Richer Sounds. Good for a bargain.
Can also highly , highly recommend the combo of Kef and REL. I'm using Kef Q900 , Q600c , Monitor Audio BX6 and an REL T9. Simply put , sounds awesome.
Onkyo, is just Pioneer rebranded and I don't really rate their receivers to be honest. I upgraded my Pioneer LX52 at the beginning of this year and was close to buying the Pioneer SC LX901 but Richer were doing a discount on the Yamaha Aventage range . So I went with the Yamaha RX-A1070. It's not as bright sounding as the Pioneer and I'm really glad I chose Yamaha. Build quality is fantastic and the thing sounds amazing for film and music alike.
Get Richer to do you a demo before you buy mate . The Yamaha AVR's are proper.

Have always heard good things about Pioneer and Yamaha Receivers, but clearly @Scotty75 just slagged off my Onkyo
Anyway, I have ended my separated days and gone down Sonos playbar, sub and play 1 surrounds route, LOVE IT, and more importantly so does ‘er indoors
Funny mate, I did chuckle when I read. I wonder how many sales they do when cars go in for service, MOT or they give punters a. Ice shiny new Audi. LOVE RS3’s
This time next year mate watch this space Av firstly lolMeant to say a shiny new, not ******** ice! ****** autocorrect
@jassyo06 - Googled siloxane lol & low & behold its another name for Si02
I'm still not entirely convinced as any product applied to a wet car is always going to dilute the product
Been reading about Gyeon WetCoat as this seems to get mentioned quite a lot in here
https://www.polishedbliss.co.uk/gyeon-q2m-wetcoat
'Gyeon Q²M WetCoat comes pre-diluted to the correct strength'
So its already diluted before you dilute it further
Sorry I'm not convinced. Never have been & still ain't after a bit of research, so far
Unless someone wants to send me a sample
CarPro have in Reload been adding Si02 to this product for as long as I can remember
I would suggest it would be better to use a 'full fat' product on a wet car than a pre-diluted one
Just my thoughts ...

I tend to agree with you @Bristle Hound. Funny enough my detailer @FranA3 has said to
Me NOT to use Wetcoat or CarPro Hydro2 A’s doesn’t agree with MaxProtect (ceramic coating on my car) for some reason. I am a fan of Reload Ona dry car or as in yesterday I used Gyeon Cure (on dry car)
@q5man - Like you I'm a fan of CP ReloadI tend to agree with you @Bristle Hound. Funny enough my detailer @FranA3 has said to

I do have a bottle of Gyeon Cure but still haven't got round to using it. Shame on me ! lol
However I do suspect Reload & Cure are the same product

Lol....... I'm not trashing you're Onkyo mate . Just not a fan myself . My sister opted for Sonos....... Does sound pretty good to be fairHave always heard good things about Pioneer and Yamaha Receivers, but clearly @Scotty75 just slagged off my OnkyoAnyway, I have ended my separated days and gone down Sonos playbar, sub and play 1 surrounds route, LOVE IT, and more importantly so does ‘er indoors

I know mate, besides that was a fair few years ago, but sold it all and got the Sonos setup. Nowhere near quality of 5.1, THX etc etc but for me love it, and have them in most rooms.
I work in IT AND tech is my thing, Sonos is probably the best gear I have bought. Love how a software update can add so much functionality etc
I have heard that before, but Cure definitely smells nicer, and is white, whilst reload is clear, but very many similarities just like Gyeon Wetcoat and CarPro Hydro2
Angelwax vision with a specific glass cloth also one of these can help View attachment 170104
Onkyo have bought over the Pioneer brandHave always heard good things about Pioneer and Yamaha Receivers, but clearly @Scotty75 just slagged off my Onkyo
As it stands the pioneer receiver line up is guff none of them are THX certified now and that's a must have for myself and the entry level lx303 ain't really got a lx spec it's more of a SC Spec, SC range was the range down from the LX range
Same chemist who developed Cure also Reload when he joined CarPro. The only difference that I have found between both the products is that Reload smears and Cure doesn't.

However, I have never managed to find Reload's composition data, the MSDS also doesn't give you much info on the composition and physical and chemical properties. Maybe I need to check the bottle label itself and see if it shows me anything

Thanks couldn’t see the attached however I have a waffle glass cloth. Maybe cos I’m on the mobile
@rasA4 - I use a dampened with water Waffle Weave MF cloth
This is the 1 I use -
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Water-Wi...=item564266d2c0:g:2MsAAOSwKzpZgOwi:rk:20:pf:0
Works for me
@rasA4 - Nope. Nothing. Just damp the waffle weave MF with water
Interior vehicle glass cleaning can be a bit of a challenge TBH
