    Video: Auto Finesse Desire

    It might need to load fully before you play it but because it plays in HD, check the graphics card of your computer: some slightly older ones can't handle HD. :)

    megs endurance tire spray - experiences?

    You need to clean and dry the tyre sidewalls before applying a dressing to get the best results. From our site: A single coat dries to give a rich satin black finish in around 1-2 hours. If more gloss is desired, a second coat should be applied 10 minutes after the first. :)

    Cleaning and protecting Matt Black Alloys

    Have they been repainted? If so, double check they've been baked/cured fully then I'd go with this: Wolf's Chemicals Nano Rim Sealant (Rim Shield) | Wolf's Chemicals Car Care & Detailing Products Ultra durable, really slick and won't add much at all in the ay of gloss: it'll tend to ever...

    Tardis

    Tardis should only be shipped in 5litre metal tins. There are some traders on a certain auction site who will decant it into plastic containers. Firstly, there have been cases where it's been diluted, secondly, to ship it in a plastic bottle is against the law (Dangerous Goods handling...

    Video: Auto Finesse Citrus Power in action

    I'm not a Bilberry fan to be honest and it's not one we stock. One way to find out if Citrus Power has the strength for the dust! Give it a dry! If not, I'd go with Wolf's Chemicals Decon Gel: Wolf's Chemicals Decon Gel (Deironizer) | Wolf's Chemicals Car Care & Detailing Products (Out of...

    Video: Hyper Wash Demo

    Yes; our lease agreement states we have to capture any waste water. The car is driven onto this bund, it's then inflated so it catches the water. At the end of the wash, we use a marine pump to take the water out and into a storage tank. The tank's then periodically emptied by a local...

    Wax / Polish Applicators

    You'll use less product and get a more even coverage with a pad than by hand. A foam pad is best as the product sits on the face of the pad and can then be more evenly distributed across the surface. These are my favourite pads for applying wax: Blackfire Ultimate Applicator Pad |...

    I'd avoid this area with any product. I'd get it painted ASAP as unpainted, at this time of year especially, you'll be getting road salt, water etc into it making the rust spread more quickly. :)
