I wouldn't melt it myself, mainly because it's a hybrid wax. Most waxes require a specific cooling routine to get the correct texture and consistency too. Certainly don't microwave it, hot solvents in a confined space is likely to end badly! A hot, dry spoon or knife should do the trick though. The best way would be when you next plan to use it, scrape it out and re-mould it with your hands using the excess on the car when you're done (thus no wastage).

You, sir, are a true gent.

Only three more weeks to wait... http://www.webcountd...=54kOEY2&k=ubyx :lol:

As Ekona and Downhuman have said, I can't add much more to that. Trial and error on what works best for you really, I don't even dare think about how much I've spent on detailing products though. I've not tried Ultima but I've found Tough Coat and Werkstat Acrylic to be very similar. I was using EX-P on my Azure this winter but that was replaced with the Werkstat at the weekend as I had some left over from when I had my silver Impreza. I tend to favour a wax over the summer months on the Zed though so may look into Ultima for next winter.

Only three more weeks to wait...

I was just about to suggest Hard Body and Auto Finesse Tough Coat as alternatives to Werkstat.

Sealants tend to give better shine on colours like grey and silver than a wax will. I recommend having a look at the Werkstat Acrylic kit, it'll give a great shine and incredible flake pop and is easy to use even for a weekly wash, it won't give you the beading a good wax will though and doesn't give quite as rich a finish as a wax either.

Ordered mine too.

Good work. Nice reflection shots too.

As others have said, thanks for sorting this out Rob (whether I'm one of the 25 or not ).

NO I DIDNT STEAL IT "TBBK" I PAID HIM FOR IT...!!! :snack: If you want to be pedantic, he didn't accuse you of stealing it.

Some people have no sense of adventure.

http://www.polishedswiss.com/#/engine-bay/4529645625 Have a nosey at this, it's a fairly detailed step by step. If it's not really that bad, I tend to just use a diluted APC rather degreaser though.

Better still, tell him you'll take it for a test drive until the CEL light goes out; free Zed! Then hand it back when it's broken.

I'll be interested too.

I can't say I've ever heard of this before but having had a nosey at the website I'm quite tempted.

That.

So lower profile and stretched? Or in other words, the wrong size.

Ultimatesoldier may not still be the owner, he says he lives in Yorkshire in that second link that BBK provided, but the car's now for sale in Devon??

You're not this guy are you? If so, this is your suspect;

That. Tardis is my preferred choice. Alternatively heat the glue (with a hair-drier or such) which will make it slightly easier to pick off That too.

No experience of this issue myself so I can't help you there. However, for parts,

The 3.8litre was the 380RS, wasn't it? I can't be a***d to look it up myself.

...But it's too late to keep your head down and pretend it never happened though.
