Are those before the damage pics or after the polishing? If it's after I think you've done an amazing job ..got a few on mine I want to get out. What did you use?

Think main problem was not using any detergent, so they all came out contaminated and greasy. Washed them last week with polish pads at 40 with Surf ..and microfibres are clean no residue . Polish pads appear to clean but stained from black hole and nattys . Which is fine because they'll only...

Yeah pretty impressed with it for the cost. Goes on easy enough by hand. Right on call , today sitting at traffic lights I heard a loud thud on the roof . When I got home a large bird poo had been splatted . It came off super easy tho and pouring water on it , it just beaded and rolled off the...

Could you elaborate for those of us not versed in Detergent chemistry ..

Got a good shift done yesterday using `Poorboys Black hole and Natty's Paste wax . Other half thought I was mad taking photos in Asda car park, after we came out and it had been raining .. and the 5 hours spent yesterday cleaning!

yeah I saw on youtube on a big American detailers company to not use fabric softener as it actually coats all the fibres to be / look fluffy but makes them less absorbent. But read on forum post to not use detergent as it degrades and hardens the fibres. I'm thinking , some washing powder is...

How does everyone wash their microfibre cloths? Generally they'll be an assortment of ones used for interior , windows, wheels, black hole , wax and don't want this combination cross contaminating all my cloths and pads I read somewhere don't use washing powder.. I tried it , but everything...

Ah that will be why I thought it looked different ! Still get confused seeing the new A3 saloons on the road as well. ..!

Ah that's a thought .. just bought Poorboys Black hole and their Natty's wax tho . At least I'll enjoy waxing it with new stuff :)

This arrived today :) £30 eBay Think I'll have to wait till next week tho for some spare time :(

Looks great, not seen many red S4s , those wheels go really nicely with the colour.

Thanks Fran, yes looks more to be dirt/ earth that's either settling on the beading or same but possibly caught in rain on way down if that's possible. Also an old building has been getting demolished and crushed down for a new building site about 1/4 mile away so I think the air is much more...

Outdoors , it would be strange if it rained in an underground carpark !

As header says.. after it's been raining I'm getting beading shaped dirty drying marks. It can be a bit windy in my car park with dust/ earth being either blown around from the surrounding shrub beads or just dirty rain. Anyway as much as I admire the beading when it been raining on my car it...

Hi, posted a week or so ago about Ultra Deep shine. It gets ok results , but an awful lot of elbow grease. Can leave white residue and it's not fully a wax and doesn't last that long. I'm going to to try Chemichal Guys blacklight and V7 , it looks so much quicker and easier to apply than UDS...

Thanks Chrissy, think I'll be buying some `poorboys dark car kit or `Chemichal guys blacklight which looked super easy to apply compared to the elbow grease needed for UDS. And maybe a wax over Blacklight then the V7 , and top ups with v7 after.

I posted a wee while back about UDS . Today I got a full day to clean and polish and much happier with the results. Pretty good reflections and a huge difference from last time. I do feel it's quite hard to work with and prob using way too much . But to get a decent coverage I feel you have too...

Thanks for advice folks @Rich76 ...great reflections. One thing that bothers me about getting a reflective finish on `phantom black is you loose any look of the pearlesance and they look more solid black - is there any way to keep light refracting , are there any waxes , sealants that contain...

Hi, I'm a newbie to polishing detailing but have read lots on forum . Basicallly after decent lasting results without being too mental & costly about it all . I snowfoamed and washed & dried with Demonfoam then clay bar'd . Not as much as I hought might came off on the clay bar though. Then...
