    IPA needed before hydro2?

    a quick google of the product instructions brings up this: In shaded location or shop wash your vehicle and remove any dirt from the surfaces. Use car shampoos with no wax or gloss enhancers!! There is NO NEED to dry off the vehicle! But surface must be clean well from soap residues. so i would...

    Washing microfiber towels - revisited

    i think if your using an interior protecter ant rather than a standard dressing, you may well be better off using cheap disposable cloths. many dressings are oil or water based and so will break down under the right wash conditions, but its very difficult to remove what is essentially a coating...

    Am I crazy?

    Couldn't agree more, well said :dblthumb2: btw, I don't think I've ever been 100% happy with any car I've done. there are plenty of times when I've finished a detail, looked back and thought 'well thats come up a treat, but if i just had a another 3 hours'. its called being a perfectionist, and...

    Glaze InBetween Top Coats

    not sure if the glaze you have in mind has a cleanser in it. if it does, you may find that it actually starts to strip the polish base layer and so would be counter productive. try it and see. if it doesn't work out the way you want, just strip it and start again. there are so many possible ways...

    Dodo juice, who uses it?

    Lime prime and micro prime are essentially the same product, but with different abrasives. So if you like one, chances are you'll like the other (or visa versa ��). I've actually found micro prime to be great for restoring tarnished hard plastic. please bare in mind if you use it for that, it's...

    Dodo juice, who uses it?

    The colour change aspect of the waxes is very subtle tbh. It's more of a light enhancement than a colour change. Dom (dodo founder) wrote an interesting peice on it a while back, showing the waxes on a white car. I'll see if I can dig it out

    Are Pinnacle Foam Applicators Best?

    i use both the meguiars and the cheap disposable ones, depending on what I'm doing. Supernatural hybrid is one of my 'go to' waxes, but is a pig to get out of the applicator afterwards, so i tend to use the cheap pads for that and then chuck them away. most of my other waxes and glazes i'll...

    Do some polishes clean up easier than others?

    polishes are all different, so inevitably some will dissolve better in water than others. so the answer is yes

    Dodo juice, who uses it?

    orange crush is a lovely wax, i don't think you'll be disappointed. that and blue velvet are probably my two favourite waxes. that said, i also have the mr skittles limited edition forum members wax, which is just sublime

    Dodo juice, who uses it?

    dodo juice ferrous dueller is a fantastic fallout/iron remover, far better imo than IronX. smells a darn sight better too. their own wax range is really excellent, although some of their limited runs such as the chocwork orange have fallen a bit flat. Their Born to be mild shampoo has won awards...
