Added these to a recent order. Both have been available for a while in the US but only recently landed here.



Reflect is yet another glass cleaner with rain repellent, think the OPT Glass Clean & Protect or Stoner's Ceramic Glass Cleaner. I note you can use Reflect on interior glass, which is not recommended with competitor products. These glass cleaners are hit miss, some work well (OPT, Stoners), others are pointless in that they leave streaks and haze behind (ClarifyPhobic, Griots). Which one will Reflect be?

As if the detailing scene needs more product terminology, Release is described as a "vacuum aid", designed as an anti-static agent for vacuuming carpets laced with sand and pet hair. The concept being that it cuts down on static charge and makes for easier removal via the vacuum. Release morphed out of using Paint Gloss for the same role, however it goes further in that it contains anti-soiling agents and odour neutralizers.

Both are nicely scented.

Interested to hear your take on Reflect. Specifically regarding it's ease of use vs. that of Optimum/Stoner's offerings.

I find it very easy to buff and also enjoy the cologne-like scent. The water behavior is likewise nice, but nothing spectacular.

P&S just started stocking the gallons here in the States at a very fair price - around $30 (edit: $27!) if my memory is correct.
 
With so much hype, both of these "accessories" must be MORE than just "accessories", right?!

Never talked myself into the M22 towels until last week. Grabbed the new Viking brush in the meantime as well...

I think Roger loves the M22 towel, but I am not a fan of it.. although I do like it better than that half camouflage towel I bought from TRC
 
Delivery today, even though the tracking said damaged in transit, it was fine. Restocking my Reset, as I'm almost out. And I thought I'd give Reload 2.0 a try, so I bought the sample size. The wheel brushes I bought a week or so back at Bunnings, but haven't tried them yet, these are mainly for the alloys on the Qashqai.1000042282.jpg

Yeah, but pretty sure he bought it only for the green color. Liking it was a happy accident!

Oddly excited to go use both. It's just going to be hard to squeeze something in during these 90 degree days where I get only sunshine until 8pm.

Carpro's new branding is pretty slick. Just restocked on a 1L of Reset myself.

I kick myself for not buying the damaged 4L jug of Reset that TCG had at one of their sales. It was so cheap.

The promise of this particular brush was that it can do what an EZ-Detail can do, but without the potential risk of marring from the bristle design. I need the EZ-Detail to clear the rotor and brake calipers on the Ranger, XR6, and Mustang.



In my attempt to find the perfect wheel barrel brush, I have a drawer full of candidates but I keep returning to the EZ-Detail. Most of them are at least some form of junk.

I have noticed no marring from an ez detail using on satin black wheels. Still feel wheel woolies are the best and my go to. And I’m a wheel guy. They are as or more important than my paint. Probably one of the few who two bucket washes his paint.

If I could afford a wash bay I’d have a setup for each wheels. I’m sure on som softer painted wheels the ez could be an issue.

I’ve been a DiY nay sayer for years and ive always laughed at brushes on paint. But washing the grenadier sucks and would like to clean roof when rinselessing.

I’ve heard nothing but good things but expect my results to be like [mention]DFB [/mention] wheel brush scenario.

Also I just bought a Ibrid Nano 2. Found it for 25% off. No tax was popping up so I clicked the click to buy button. Well they use the Shop payment system which auto has my info.

I want to call and cancel because i absolutely do not need it but with no tax that was like 35% off.

If your in the need for Rupes products at a great dm me. Good company and I got my HLR75 and HLR15. But was 20% off and I don’t remember no tax…

So as I mentioned before accidentally bought a Nano 2 trying to see what it would be with tax thought I had to click by button. Didn’t realize they use Shop which aready has CC number. But with 25% off and no tax figured maybe O do need this and a PXE (I don’t).

Well I don’t know if they were having a 4th of July giveaway. Appreciated me buying all my polishers from them but I got sent a second notification saying purchase done. Was this star match (didn’t know it existed) for 0.00


I don’t think it was a mistake as it had my info and receipt safe price $199 and Mel down $0.

But no email saying why but thankful anyways.

I have a sunbath so don’t know I would have bought but excited to have.
