There was a polymer based QD in a Waxybox many months ago which was amazeballz but I lost the bottle and never found it again. Not sure why you'd have polymer in a last stage product, as it won't bond properly but it was quality.

Thanks Matt. I like BSD, it's a bit more "clingy" than other QDs I've used (I use it as a QD only, don't trust waterless washes ). But once I found a MF towel that it got on with, nice and easy to use and it was "grabbing" the towel less. It leaves a nice finish, with a nice bead. No idea on durability as it gets topped up at least once a week. If I didn't want to try other QDs I'd quite happily stick with it. I was using DJ Red Mist previously, which was easier to apply but at a fiver more for one third as much, I don't think its that much better. I was perhaps being a bit liberal with the DJ mind. I've heard good stuff about Zaino so might try that next. I don't recall having a "bad" QD, or one that particularly stood out (I should really make notes!). So I'll keep trying new ones. Any suggestions?

Thanks, shame it won't all fit in there

^^ This. The only guy that I worked with who was even vaguely interested in cars left for a new job, ...I was honestly gutted. Now there are two guys and one girl and none of them have a clue about cars. They wonder why I "waste" my time cleaning it as it's only going to get dirty again and can't understand why I enjoy spending my money on it to make it go faster when the speed limit is 30, 40, 60 etc. I do like them all but they are definitely not car folk. Totaly the same at my place, except one guy who was a designer at TVR! I learn something new everyday.

You should've seen my colleagues' faces when I excitedly showed them my new detailing box. Some of them still don't speak to me.

Flew with Thomas Cook to orlando in September. Made RA look like 1st class on the orient express. Worst flight ever, and I've flown in Colombia and Bolivia.

Thanks. The yellowing headlights are a continued source of irritation. I tried toothpaste, followed by the megs kit, neither of which did much for me. I've also had the DA on them, which was better but didn't remove it totally. I'm too chicken to hit them with wet and dry I might try a more aggressive cut with the DA again.

Cheers fellas, all three products are worth a squirt if you're running dry, sensibly priced too. I should add the paint had a thick coat of AMMO Skin last weekend; which, although it doesn't stop grime accumulating, does seem to stop it sitcking to the paint and assist with the rinse.

Noticed I was running out of valet pro snow foam so thought I'd have a look around for alternatives. Over at cleanyourcar I picked up some Dodo Juice - Apple iFoam (with a name like that I couldn't resist ) and CarPro Iron X Snow Soap. I also ran out of the AMMO Plum Wheel Cleaner, wish I'd bought more than one bottle of this as it's been a winner for me. Heard lots of good stuff on here about SONAX Full Effect Wheel Cleaner, so picked that up too. Been away this weekend in the Zed so I loaded up the front end with bugs and some all over dust and rain spots. It wasn't exactly filthy but I like her to be nice and clean on a Monday morning. Sadly, I didn't have time for a touch wash this evening before it got dark, so perfect opportunity to have a quick play with the goodies and the marcher and see what they can do on their own. Used a couple of inches of iFoam in the lance, it says to use 10 to 1 as foam so this was probably a bit over the top. However, it did give a nice shaving thick foam (next time I'll use half and see how the foam compares). It's got a pleasant apple smell as you'd imagine, though not overly strong. Even applied quite thick it didn't leave too much mess on the drive. Seconds after application. After 5 minutes dwelling. After 10 minutes, more left than I usually get with valet pro in the same quantitates. The bugs were still very much in place, but nicely softened up Whilst the foam was dwelling I gave the wheels a generous spritz with Sonax, which doesn't smell anywhere near as nice as iFoam. Left it on for a couple of minutes. After a rinse down with the pressure washer (no agitation with my usual woolies) I was really impressed by the filth that had been blasted off (the wheels were waxed a couple of months back, which no doubt helped). I normally wouldn't towel dry after a pressure wash as I fear contaminants, but I did draw a towel across the paint and it looked clean enough to apply quick spritz of Sonax Extreme Brilliant Shine Detailer to finish off. For a touchless wash and 45 minutes work in fading light I was pleased with the result and all the new cleaning arrivals Looking forward to trying the IronX snow foam next. http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/washing-and-drying/foam-pre-wash/dodo-juice-apple-ifoam/prod_1364.html http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/wheels-and-tyres/sonax-full-effect-wheel-cleaner/prod_1180.html http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/detailing-sprays/sonax-xtreme-brilliant-shine-detailer-750ml/prod_1178.html

Love the toolbox cover, very professional.

I've had my eye on a set of these since I bought her. Count me in

Are the any aftermarket uprated engine mounts that are well reviewed?

Best title ever, someone save this for the annual awards. Any pics? Edit: sorry, just messin' Looks well and that is an extremely nice looking roadster you've got there

Nearly in budget and mile requirements. http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201410108113941

Not sure about all the facts here, I'm pretty certain the Daily Mail calmly says, "WE WILL ALL CATCH IT FROM FOREIGNERS WHO EAT MONKEY MEAT". So I'm simply staying clear of kebab shops http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2713707/Secret-trade-monkey-meat-unleash-Ebola-UK-How-appetite-African-delicacies-British-markets-stalls-spread-killer-virus.html On a more sane and serious note, it's shocking we haven't done more quickly to assist the areas being hit hard with this. Also it must be nervy working in frontline healthcare at the minute.

I can't live with that level of uncertainty!!!! This is like watching 24 but one week at a time instead 24 hours straight on box set.

Has this happened yet? Where's the "Dan review" with GoPro footage?

Nice work. Almost out of menzerna (which I found to dust - though it was quite warm out) so these two seem like a nice next stop on the learning curve.

Amsterdam? Perfect for a stag, with the Van Gogh museum and Anne Frank's house.

Make a week of it and go to Rio. The party never stops.

Epic!

Kill it with fire!

If you're worried or going somewhere remote, stick a botle of octane booster in one of the cubbies. You never know when you might find yourself north of Fort William

Here you go mate.
