Waterless products quite frankly are a joke. I wouldn’t pick them up if they were free… Paul there is no hosepipe ban in your area so just wash the car 👍👍👍 Ooooo, we could all go round to Paul and have a group wash session :yes: |

Three neighbours already commented on how shiny it looks and asked what i was using so i'm pleased with it :TU: |

That’s why detailer use special lamps like sun guns…. In all my years detailing not once have I heard anyone say how good waterless products are but it’s universally condemned. So your never going to hear anything good from me about that stuff. Apart from that it’s expensive….. |

So your never going to hear anything good from me about that stuff. Apart from that it’s expensive….. I won't be washing the Rav or any other car every week or every other week like i used to Charlie and the paintwork is probably full of invisible swirls and scratches any road for an eighteen and half year old car coming up to 100k on the clock. We've come to the decision so long as it keeps running that's all we are worried about now. I've tried looking after it the best i can but i will never get anywhere near to your sort of detailing Charlie. I've tried the pressure washer with snow foam when the Rav wasn't particularly dirty but still looked the same when it was washed off and dried. Perhaps i was doing summat wrong but who knows? |

Paul for foaming and pressure washing to be really effective the surface needs to be slick and smooth. Obviously that involves polishing and keeping swirls to an absolute minimum. To be honest I don’t slender the time I used to cleaning or detailing my cars. I don’t have the level of interest but even so the Rav and the wee IQ foam wash off brilliantly because I never inflict any swirling or micro marring so a wax once or twice a year is enough. I thought you 3 door guys were ultra keen. I take much more pride and put in more effort on my old Mazda because it’s old and I just want it to be the best it can. For some Eason I find an older car in top condition more pleasing than a newer one. .. I strongly condemn the use of waterless products not to try and be clever I say it because in a strange way I kinda hope to see your cars looking mint and I don’t like seeing folk part with good money for products that not only don’t benifit but can cause damage. At the end of the day it makes no odds to me what anyone does to thier cars and it’s not my money but still. Anyway if you like the product crack on and all the best with it. 👍👍👍👍 |
