3FIDDYZ Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 Bought some from a car show the other week, goes on easy using the included applicators that need to be damp, and comes off nice and easy leaving a lovely shine. Had 2 coats so far and more to come! Kit includes pot of wax, 2 applicators and 1 microfibre polishing cloth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drewbie Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 Looks good. Auto Glym are a firm favourite of mine and have been for years. Just recently though I have been treating the Zed to some Blackfire Wet Diamond and Menzerna Full Molecular Jacket as Autoglym were missing something top end. This could be worth trying though. What's the likely everyday price ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
p1tse Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 looking good, again like the black roof etc. what wax did you use before? i quite like the p21s i have, but might try dodo next Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the likely everyday price ? http://www.4wheelplay.co.uk/autoglym-hi ... 03381.html £34.99 by the looks of it, think I paid a bit less at the show. First wax I have used that you use a damp applicator... (Autoglym info here : http://www.autoglym.com/enGB/product-pr ... GG&Range=1) Last week I polished with Autoglym SRP and then and then on with the HD, just got to build up the layers now! I havnt tried many other waxs just really just megs and one or 2 others, am sure to try a few others though am sure!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
p1tse Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 out of interest, did you think about doing the top half including pillars black too? but then again it's quite a cool look as it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3FIDDYZ Posted September 20, 2008 Author Share Posted September 20, 2008 Volk GT-S wheels That arnt gonna look like that soon, need to get them ready for winter I did think about doing the pillers and boot in black... But I didnt get it done!! I like the way it makes it looks like its got a panoramic roof... Car needs to go in for body kit fitting soon so you never know... !!

Sarnie Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 I think your car is too nice to ruin it with a bodykit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stanski Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Nice motor and well waxed!! Do like those Alloys I forked out for my Blackfire wax (not cheap) tub should last me for about 5 years though its like hard furniture wax ......... Only things is something to fill the scratches better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3FIDDYZ Posted September 21, 2008 Author Share Posted September 21, 2008 If you use something like autoglym SRP once in a while it has fillers in it as well as gentle abrasion so that may work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randomfry Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 I think your car is too nice to ruin it with a bodykit +1 looks awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stanski Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 If you use something like autoglym SRP once in a while it has fillers in it as well as gentle abrasion so that may work? ok thanks will give it a try! BTW I think your car is too nice to ruin it with a bodykit Same here dont do it - looks top as it is - very tasteful - Body kits are fine for Vauxhall Corsa's!

AK350Z Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Yeah, SRP is good stuff. If you are doing it by hand the cutting effect is very mild, and it fills quite well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M13KYF Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 I think your car is too nice to ruin it with a bodykit +1 wax looks very similar to p21s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only things is something to fill the scratches better Stan, if you fancy trying the autoglym gear i'd suggest trying Autoglym Ultra Deep Shine over SRP - should help with the scratches and work well in terms of finish with your colour of paint. Then apply loads of coats of your Blackfire wax! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stanski Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 Thanks for the advice folks (Stew also suggested soemthing a while back but I deleted the pm by mistake) I keep saying I am not going to bother about it then I catch the swirls in the sun and it spoils the look thank ye kindly goodly folk.

pardonator Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 Really is good wax that stuff. At £40 a pop there's a pretty good bargain at Halfords on 3 for 2. £120 for £80, works out at a nice £29ish a pot covering delivery. Anyone fancy it?
