My incredibrush is over a year old, never wash it, just rinse it and leave it to dry, doesn't look to have taken any wear!

one call all week, was expecting more to be honest. And thats the one mate yeah.Any bites on your S3 pal? Assume this is yours on Autotrader? Don’t settle for a penny less than you’re asking for - would be a lucky son of a gun who picks up yours mate. Great pix BTW.

Looking forward to the Incredibrush flat version - hoping this will slip between the wheel barrels and front calipers nicely. Expensive, but hoping this will make alloy barrel cleaning a doddle.
BH Surfex HD bought in bulk 5l option (as why wouldn’t you - 1l is a tenner, so crazy value at £17 for 5l - will last me donkey’s). Looking forward to experimenting with this in different dilution ratios as an all purpose cleaner/degreaser, will probably try mixing 50/50 with BH auto-foam - that could be interesting as a pre-wash snow foam mix. Got the spray bottle and intend to use Surfex as a tyre cleaner (have ordered a Tuf-Shine tyre brush for the tyre walls separately).
Gyeon Cure as it looks to be a good spray sealant top-off for a ceramic coating, with semi-decent durability (circa 3 months) - supposed to be very similar to Car-Pro Reload. I’ve been impressed with other Gyeon products I’ve bought recently. Not as good value for money as Sonax BSD (BSD is not a quick detailer as many people think! but a sealant with 3-4 weeks durability). Hoping ‘Cure’ will leave a slicker feel to the paintwork. BSD too ‘grabby’ - I like the results BSD gives, but want the paint to feel slick to the touch, gonna use up the rest of the BSD I have on the wife’s car. Bought this but will will probably give TAC Systems Moonlight a go once I’ve used the Gyeon Cure up - that looks VERY interesting with up to 9 months longevity, so great to see you through winter. I’ve also ordered some Paragon micro fibre applicator pads off fleabay (£10 for x5) - plan is to spray the Gyeon Cure onto these applicators rather than directly onto panels to make applying/levelling the product before buffing really efficient in terms of product usage and coverage.
Oh, and Bouncers Done & Dusted, just because it’s an ace quick detailer/drying aid, love this stuff.
Looking forward to next Saturday
. I am feeling old

. One of my neighbour's daughter is returning her KIA lease deal and wants me to detail it beforehand. Was supposed to do it this Sunday but a bit under the weather atm. 
Oh, and the A3 needs some love both inside and out. Tis been nearly three weeks that I haven't washed her. Mrs thinks it is squeaky clean

Nice work @Tashfeen. S4 looks spot on mate .. One of my neighbour's daughter is returning her KIA lease deal and wants me to detail it beforehand. Was supposed to do it this Sunday but a bit under the weather atm.
S4 went in for re-correct after Oxford Audi screwed it up. This time we decided to strip Finest Reserve and apply Geyon DuraFlex. The and depth and the gloss even on the white paint is astonishing and way way better than Finest Reserve.

Holy *hit @Jassy06, I'd that's your S3's naked paintwork then that is amazing mate. Looks ****** awesome and the tyres aint looking bad either
The wings, bumper, bonnet had been polished mate, then applied some fusion wax instantly it started raining again for 4th time, so the fusion was buffed off immediately so rendering it useless, 20 mins later l dried the car off again and again applied some wax again it immediately started raining lol l just ****** gave up.. . And headed straight to the fridge lolHoly *hit @Jassy06, I'd that's your S3's naked paintwork then that is amazing mate. Looks ****** awesome and the tyres aint looking bad either

Although the scratches were caused by a mitt but still ...
Always enjoyed keeping my motor tidy, but every day is a school day on this forum and trying to step-up my game. Thanks for those thoughts on Incredibrush - did you have regular round, or flat version? Hoping the flatty will be good for getting behind the calipers without grating too much on the disc guard at the back. Will report back once I’ve tested! Will you please have a word with the weather up north mate (dry as a bone down here!) - hanging on tenterhooks for Voodoo under LED at the petrol shop! You need one of these pop-up gazebos pal, lol.I quite like the Incredibrush tbh however, I use it as a last step of my alloy cleaning process. I have Autoglym shampoo specifically to wash the alloys so it is dipped in the bucket and used after they are properly decontaminated. A bit apprehensive in using it on dirty alloys as I have scratched them onceAlthough the scratches were caused by a mitt but still ...
That Gazebo would be perfect mate but too expensive for a hobbyist detailer like myself besides l am saving up for my next unusual painted new car, my car has its first birthday in a week .. so... its insurance renewal time, road tax Grrrr lol and service so not going to be cheap lol road tax and insurances paid this weekend and the service will get done at the start of November... This year has flew in, my car still looks brand new bar the 2 stone chips so I'll get them done soon as l can find the time and most of all a dry day on weekend lolHa! Not for Chrimble, just getting well into this detailing lark and trying to keep up with you boys

Cheers @Tashfeen - I’m also super paranoid about my alloys - takes me as long to detail them and tyres as it does the rest of the car’s maintenance wash! Hoping spending £30 on a wheel brush isn’t a case of ‘a fool and his detailing money....’ Softly does it.
- a quick search on my phone had Halfords at £18 and on line £17 - £25
