Best temporary shampoo

[richie121]

I know uve done youre car now,but pop to tesco and try there wash and wax at a later date.
I do the wifes mini cooper and my Doblo and to be honest its good and a lot cheaper than autoglym,and when it rains after it is just like its been waxed as the water beads off.It comes in a black 2.5 ltr bottle.

That car looks well shiny good job done

Regards

Richie

Hmm, that overspray looks alot like what my dads got on his car, though it matches the colour of the car so its not very visable, just very rough to the touch.... he had his bumper sprayed months ago, must of only just noticed the over spray recently.

I shall get some clay later n give it a shot


Anyway back on subject, car looks nice! wish I could of gotten my old car's red to come up that deep!

I have to say the front end and rear bumper have only done about 50 miles since being resprayed. Also the red is Ferrari Rosso so will look different to the Fiat red

the wax lasts about 3 weeks on a daily driver when the likes of collinite last 6-8 months for the same amount of effort

this magical wax you speak of where is it made,might just have to try this once the 3 step runs out

Would presume this is it.

Wont do anything. It just protects, has no swirl filling quality's.

Email them to find your closest franchise. Stuff is better than halfords and cheaper but its 5l minimum for most stuff.

Its all a minefield with this cleaning business. No wonder there are whole forums for it.

That finishing glaze looks like what i need though. There are no major scratches just your usual swirl marks oh and kick scratches on the side skirts that wouldnt come out with T-Cut.

Told you.
