stevie040 Posted January 13, 2007 Author Posted January 13, 2007 What products are u using mate? Quote
sl114 Posted January 13, 2007 Posted January 13, 2007 I tell you what Stevie, I got a sachet from the show yesterday of autoglym high gloss polish (or somthing like that - the red one) and used it on my bonnet this morning. It comes up so much better than the NXT GEN wax that i use. So i think i am going over to Autoglym now. Quote
Stew Posted January 13, 2007 Posted January 13, 2007 NXT is pish though. I use gold class and get good results. I do chop and change between AG and Megs. Quote
Sarnie Posted January 13, 2007 Posted January 13, 2007 What products are u using mate? Pretty much most of the stuff on this list : http://www.performancemotorcare.com/aca ... uiars.html I am however, looking to change from NXT wax to something else.What would you recommend that lasts? Quote
Removed Posted January 14, 2007 Posted January 14, 2007 yeah sure, now Autoglym is better than NXT, what planet do you guys live on? Autoglym leaves so much white residue that it takes as long to take that off as it took to do the whole car NXT result (and yes you get the big sized picture for your sins) Quote
stevie040 Posted January 14, 2007 Author Posted January 14, 2007 Personally i dont like the Autoglym products. The only product i like is the super resin polish which is underated IMO. A wax thats very good for durability and also provides great results then go for Collinite 476 wax or CG 50/50 Wax from www.carwashnwax.co.uk The 50/50 irally rate as high as a lot of the premium waxes Quote
sl114 Posted January 16, 2007 Posted January 16, 2007 The white residue thing is actually a very good point, which is why i used it on the MG which was black, the white dust really annoyed me, however the finish with the autoglym super resin polish was awesome when i tried it. Quote
stevie040 Posted January 16, 2007 Author Posted January 16, 2007 SRP is a great product. It also hides some swirls by filling them.I know of a few detailers that swear by it and always try to iclude it in there details. Quote
stuey Posted January 16, 2007 Posted January 16, 2007 is this any good jewelultra diamondbright stage 1 and 2 Quote
stevie040 Posted January 16, 2007 Author Posted January 16, 2007 I have heard mixed reviews on the diamondbrite products. Until i use them myslef i cant really comment. Quote
StephenG Posted January 23, 2007 Posted January 23, 2007 Meguiars all the way for me, takes ages, but worth it Quote
Removed Posted January 23, 2007 Posted January 23, 2007 you have to, they are proper wheels,not cheapos Quote
H5 Posted January 24, 2007 Posted January 24, 2007 My argument with SRP polish vs Megs NXT is 'no pain no gain'!! Did a whole car with Megs and the first thing we did when finished was look at the car next to it done in AutoGlym and said 'Should've used Glym'. Those guys on the concourse can't be too wrong, and the Gloss Protection really lasts. Quote
stevie040 Posted January 24, 2007 Author Posted January 24, 2007 Try Klasse All in One its better than the Auotglym in my opinion and also does stage one and tf sone application. Surface prep is the key and the Klasse has very good chemical cleansers in it aswell as a little glaze and sealent.Top that with a good wax which chemical guys 50/50 is probably the best value for money then u are looking at a mint looking car.

So what do you do? wash and dry the car as usual, use that klasse stuff (does it need to be buffed off like wax) and the wax on wax off? Is that right? Quote
stevie040 Posted January 25, 2007 Author Posted January 25, 2007 If all that is required is a general tidy up i will wash dry, then use the klasse. U have to apply then buff off before it dries as it can be a pain to get off. Then wax on top of that. Obviously though if paint correction etc is required its a lot more detailed than that. Quote

Just been reading this back through, and can't find the Klasse stuff you're referring to. Am I being dense, what is it? Megs?? Quote
stevie040 Posted January 31, 2007 Author Posted January 31, 2007 Klasse all in one, is basically a chemical cleanser for your paint but it also has a hint of glazing oils and a little sealent. If u top this with a good wax then i guarantee u will be a lot happier. The wet look shine it achieves it top quality Quote
