conan Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 Autoglym products as excellent as SRP is , it is a bitch to get off; fed up trying to remove it by hand Ive had the car AUTOGLYM lifeshine'd by a friend at Audi in their shop about 3 weeks ago inside and out and was V impressed, He has given me a few boxes of it but ive heard that you can now only use AUTOGLYM products on it, is that right?

JakeG Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 Up here for a decent detail your talking around £300 Carlo, I use Navi Wax on my car, it's imported from japan so not many people no about it but it's best stuff I have ever used by far, and iv used plenty of waxes working in the body shop, another thing are you doing this in a garage? Because if the weather up our end is anything to go by there's no chance Id be standing out washing the car this time of year lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peter richards Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 (edited) youll find detailers quite friendly , ive passed on a lot of work to fellow pros if i cant do it myself , lots of cars out there lifes to short to bitch over a job , thats the way i look at it anyway. as for the finish guys its all in the prep if thats not done properly your wasting your time and money putting on an expensive wax . try a company called duragloss , spot on simple to use great sealant , you can put what you like on top of it for that extra bling but thats all it is tbh guys DODO also id recommend Edited February 26, 2011 by peter richards (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will have a chat with ian see what I can afford ha ha surprised andy is there, taught they are competitors They are I guess but I guess it's good to get advice from others who are at the top of the game regarding certain products especially when some of them are so dear. Few of the waxes Ian has are very very expensive. He used the valentines concours carnuba wax on mine(which is one of the cheaper waxes in his stock, cheapest is Autoglym HD as far as I know). I drove it from Dublin to Cork in rain so heavy the wipers on fastest setting was barely clearing it. When I got up the next morning to look at the car it was near perfect the glass was dirty but the bodywork was as it left. Couldn't get it over it. http://www.valentineswax.com/valentines-carnauba-wax-detailing-products.htm#concours%20carnauba Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
