  1. We do snow foam lances for £49.99 have a look on the website for the one you require.
  2. May interested in having the wheels done on the van wait to pics when have had yours painted.
  3. Can you please add us to your list thankyou www.clbvaleting.co.uk
  4. We had brilliant day Thank you for inviting us. The supernatural wax should be durable for about 6 months. However you can top up in between stripping the wax back. If you feel the supernatural is not as durable as purple haze then I would be interested in your findings. Are you using a wax safe shampoo? As this will effect the durability of the wax. Dodo state that the supernatural will last for up to six months. Using red mist as a quick detailer will also top up the durability of the wax as it is preliminary a paint sealant whilst removing any oily residue.
  5. Hi if you look at this thread http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=149&t=37443 when we were at the Lord Morton meet we applied some of our own rain repellent to xStric9x windscreen and this was his response. Only just caught up with this thread Welcome to the club guys, i will be down very shortly pick up some of that windscreen wash/cleaner and god knows what that stuff was you put on it last time but it puts rainX in the shade. It will be for sale on our site soon as we have been waiting for our labels to be printed.
  6. There are so many different levels to detailing,however the stages you need to follow depend on what you want to achieve. If you want to achieve the best you possibly can without taking your vehicle to a professional then I would do the following: 1. Wash car 2. Clay Bar 3. Polish 4. clean windows ect 5. Apply Wax 6. Wipe down with Red mist Following the above stages will ensure your vehicle is free from any bonded contamination before sealing the paintwork. However you could also do the following 1. Wash 2. Dry with a Drying Towel 3. Polish 4. Clean windows ect 5. Apply wax 6. Wipe down with Red mist By missing out the Clay bar stage you are not pulling the bonded contamination from the bodywork. However you are still cleaning and removing surface contamination during the polish stage. Depending on which wax you use would depend on how often you would need to reapply the wax. Once you have applied the wax you do not polish your car as the polish stage would break down the wax and remove it. Once you have clay barred your vehicle you would not then do it for a least another 12 months. For Instance if you have applied a hard wax then you would only need to polish and reapply the wax every 3 months or when the water stops beading. Carmen
  7. Mer is still available to buy, however detailing and cleaning products have moved with the times and there are so many different products available now you that you will just get brain washed with them all. Products are of a personal choice and everyone expects something different from the products they use. I will briefly explain some of the products. Polish taking into account that the 350z have very thin paint you do not want to use an aggressive polish therefore I would recommend the following: Dodo Juice Lime Prime = this is the most aggressive of the dodo polishes and will remove slight imperfections in the paintwork. I use the word aggressive loosely as although it is more aggressive than lime prime light it will not do any damage to your paintwork. Dodo Juice Lime prime Lite: this hardly has any cutting agents in it at all. It is purely to clean your paintwork rather than remove slight imperfections. Dodo Juice Need for Speed: this is a all in one polish that contains cleaning agents and carnauba wax to give your car that high gloss wet look in one easy application. SmartPolish: This again has a cutting agent in it but it is not aggressive and will not do any damage to your vehicle. I would not advise you to use Autoglym Super Resin as this polish will be to aggressive for your vehicle. If you want to follow with a wax then this is a quick explanation of the different waxes available: Soft Wax: This is a wax that can be applied by Hand or by a pad or finger mitt. Being a soft wax it is durable for about 2 months. Hard Wax: This wax can only be applied with a applicator pad or a finger mitt. Being a Hard wax it is durable for about 3 months. A soft wax is less durable than a hard wax because there are more carrying agents in a soft wax. These carrying agents are what allow the wax to be applied by hand. Collinite wax is a wax that has been designed more for protection than to enhance that deep glossy look. This wax can only be applied by pad or mitt. If you have never used this product before then I would advise you to do two panels and go back to the first panel and buff off the wax. This is an extremely durable wax and therefore is harder to apply. Collinite Superdouble Coat will be durable for at least 12 months per application. Collinte Marq d elegance will be durable for at least 6 months per application. The choice of wax does solely depend on what you want to achieve from it. Dodo Juice Red mist can be used after you have applied the wax. Red mist is prominently a paint sealant however it also doubles up as a Quick Detailer. Using Red mist after you have applied the wax will remove any unwanted oily residue and enhance the deep gloss of the wax whilst sealing the wax onto the bodywork. The advice I have given you is purely bassed on products we use and sell there are plenty more on the market. I hope this helps..
  8. Any Wheel cleaner that requires minimum effort is not good for your wheels. I would never advise you to leave any wheel cleaner to dwell for more than a few mins. These are wheel cleaners I would recommend they are all acid free. I would just like to mention that any cleaner if left to dwell for to long acid free, alkaline free ect, may damage what it has been applied to. 1. Bilberry 2. Mellow Yellow - Dodo Juice 3. Custom Wheels - Autoglym 4. Clb Wheel Cleaner (not yet on sale) This is the process I would recommend it may seem long winded but well worth it in the end. The cleaning process once you have followed these few easy steps will be minimal. 1. Clean wheels using your preferred wheel cleaner (Spray one wheel agitate then spray another wheel agitate, and then go back to the first wheel and remove the wheel cleaner with a PH neutral shampoo. Repeat this process until you are happy with the results. The shampoo will neutralize the wheel cleaner) 2. Clay bar your wheels to remove any bonded contamination. 3. Polish with your preferred polish to remove and clay lube residue and to clean and revive the shine. 4. Seal wheels with a wheel sealant recommended Wheel Sealants (1) Bilberry Wheel sealant (2) RimWax Now you have thoroughly cleaned and sealed your wheels you will need to dilute your wheel cleaner to the highest dilution rate or more as you do not want the wheel cleaner to break the wheel sealant down. The wheel sealant will prevent any contamination from bonding to your wheels. When the contamination starts to bond to the wheels you need to polish and reapply the wax. I hope this helps Carmen
