Detailing / Cleaning


Recommended Posts

Posted

I tried the Meguiars 3 stage and thought it was too hard work for little protection. Now at the start of the year I clay the whole car with a Meguiars Clay Bar then polish with Swissol/Swissvax Cleaner Fluid then protect with Swissol/Swissvax Samurai Wax. After that I normally wax the car once a month. This method is easier and the protection is amazing I rarely get tar spots sticking its that good. The Swissol/Swissvax is more expensive but worth every penny, the results speak for themselves.

Another thread that is sadly being wasted by the [|-)] brigade! grow up FFS

John, hope you manage to get cuprinol off the car[:S]

Yes. Got most if it off mate, just some tiny speckles left, the turps did the trick! Need to put all that wax and polish on again. That will be 5 days in a row my car has either been waxed, washed, polised, clay barred. And on some days, all of the above.

Ac!D, care to post some of the information I sent you on MSN? [;)]

Geo just can't help trolling.................[8-)] 

Dougster - Wikipedia defines a troll as - "someone who intentionally posts derogatory or otherwise inflammatory messages about sensitive topics in an established online community such as an online discussion forum to bait users into responding."

Your comments were deliberately aimed at getting a response from George therefore you are also guilty of being a troll. Congratulations.

So I get it in the neck again? Your 'congratulations' comment is unnecessary when you know it will get a response from me.

Thanks for the definition, I never knew that....

Nice to see you're keeping your friends happy as usual Stephen......... any other response on the 'reported' post and who edited/deleted the thread?

Doug, I have no idea who I'm keeping happy. I just wish you and George would ignore each other.

There was plenty of discussion as to your report. The original post was deleted you'll notice.

Don't suppose anyone could tell me how i could get that swirl affect out of my paint it is a black car so it shows up a lot more dirt and i am guilty of polishing to much. The only polish i have found so far thats good is auto glym super deep shine that gets rid of the worst of the swirl but it soon come back and it looks horrible [:'(]. I suppose the only consolation is that you only see it when its sunny and we don't get a lot of that in Orkney.

I normaly spend a couple of hours washing  the car and using autoglym super resin polish about once a month. Should I not use the polish as regular?

Bought meguairs speed detailer recently and used it on my wifes car about 3 weeks ago and its still lookin great, used it on my car last week and well pleased with shine.

Could you also recommend how to remove swirl marks?

You should only polish your car 2-4 times a year max. spending a whole day on your car is worth the effort as it makes it easier to maintain. top up with wax as often as you like as it does not damage paint. I could ramble on for a while about detailing cars but not going to bore everyone.

If you want your car done Iain is at top bloke and he'll give you a very good price.

He knows what he's doing he did Craig Mac's car a month ago what a difference top job!
