I think that goes for any product, detailing or otherwise, that has an active ingredient. There's also (amongst many other) things to consider like the overall volatility of the product, it's viscosity, how it copes with non-target contaminants or surfaces and simple usability. I'd love to wash my car in lab, where there is only brake contamination on the surface, but then I'd never be able to take it out on the road.

Sort of, I’m more in search of facts than the truth, but that aside, I can comfortably say I typically take the BBC at face value on a news item, because whilst no organisation is 100% accurate in its reporting 100% of the time, the thrust of what an outlet puts out is a barometer of its reliability as a trusted source. There is also the difference between BBC News getting things wrong and them having an agenda. Last but not least there’s a difference between BBC News now and BBC Corporate in the times of Jimmy Savile. I’m more than happy to stand behind the bulk of reported news I read across the likes of The Times, The Guardian, The Independent, The Telegraph or The NY Times, The Washington Post, Associated Press. The same can be said for the news I watch, rather than read, such as the on BBC, CNN or Channel 4. I don’t agree with all of the angles of these outlets when it comes to opinion pieces because that is a subjective take on what’s going on, but I can comfortably read about the Panama Papers or Snowdon in The Guardian whilst also dismissing some opinion rubbish they publish about whatever argument Piers Morgan is in this week or 12 ways to be more vegan in the post climate change era. As you point out, the BBC have gotten things wrong. However, I can’t think of a news outlet that hasn’t had to make a retraction or correction at some some point. I’ve posted up a variety of news sources I use (and trust), so anyone reading my posts is able to have a pretty good stab at seeing my angles. So now stand behind your posts and list out the full gamut of print and/or video news sources you’re using? In particular the ones that, in your words, are a “reliable source for truth”.

Even handed, if a little patronising response from BH. I can’t help but feel whining on about weights of product and dissolved contaminants is like saying, “My VW got 75mpg in the laboratory tests” when its just killed yet another polar bear under real world driving conditions.

You guys are crazy Lots of interesting points but the correct way is three buckets, one for wheels, two for wash and rinse of the paint. Naturally nothing that touches paint ever touches anything that touches wheels. Wheels have their own mitt and various brushes. Brake dust is too fine for me to trust in my good buckets. Decon goes on the wheels (and exhaust) first and sits there whilst snow goes on the paint. Whilst the foam dwells on the paint, pressure wash the wheels and arches, then get your soaked brushes on the wheels (no particular order, that’s weird ) then get them all clean before the snow foam starts to show signs of drying on the paint. Proceed with normal paint wash, simples!

Don’t tell me you’ve fallen for the “they’re all lamestream media for libtards and snowflakes” if an outlet doesn’t push an alt-right agenda Heard about them chemtrails they use to spread communism and stop flat earth truthing???

Now I’m more confused, so the video of Guy Verwhatsit means we need to stay in?

WILL SOMEONE EXPLAIN HOW THE UK LEAVING THE EU STOPS THE EURO ARMY? Pretty pleeeeeease.

For me I’d get an auto sparky on it, I’d sooner know where it’s going than just plug it in the mains and trickle. Really weird behaviou re: the stereo.

Suds matter! No AMMO Foam Paint Cleanser? @ilogikal1 worth a watch to learn how one pronounces Gyeon* *in Essex

NIIIIIIICE! Pretty old school with the two bucket wash, I’ve gone three, no big deal

I get that lunatics shouldn’t have guns, but I can’t tell the difference between the one in the video and Big Don or Vlad or North Korea or Israel, there’s loads of tooled up nutters on the global stage and I’m against the lot of them, but what on earth is leaving the EU (giving up our veto on topics like this) going to do to stop an EU Army?

I must admit it’s not something I’ve spent any time reading up on, but why is everyone so upset about the concept of an EU army? NATO didn’t start from something too dissimilar and there’s been relative peace in the West since then (if you consider the preceding 50 years as the benchmark). There’s not much that goes on without UN resolutions or coalitions of some type when we or one of our allies goes in somewhere. Are people worried the EU army will invade the U.K.? What am I missing?

I’ll have a try. Personally I’m not arsed about an EU army, the sheer amount of money we waste tooling up for the [insert current rogue nation] war that’s apparently coming is a disgrace when we’ve got working people who can’t afford to eat or pensioners freezing to death. We’re lost in some sort of world police delusion that’s caused us no end of problems, rooted in “we used to run 70% of the world” nostalgia. Whether it’s a few billion in the pot here or over the water, if the Commies do invade, then we’ll be fighting alongside other Western powers anyway, we’ll just have different uniforms to one another. If it really gets out of hand, then it’ll be a very short and very nuclear holocaust. If it’s the terrorists that come for us, no amount of aircraft carriers having GB or EU bumper stickers will make the blindest bit of difference in deterring those lunatics. The parts I rather like are stuff like the protections that the EU provides us from the Tories. I don’t want to go back to filthy beaches and rivers that were around when I was a kid, that came from lack of decent regulation and a “profit above all other considerations” approach to the countryside, waterways and agriculture. Improved workers rights are no bad thing either. I do also want the opportunity to go and work in other countries. I’d quite like to continue academic coordination across Europe, instead having to do all the same stuff their going to have to do, twice. In terms of sovereignty/freedom/taking back control and the subsequent get rid of the foreigners rubbish that’s been emboldened by all this rabid nationalism, it has done far more to damage my pride in being English than anything multiculturalism could possibly do. I’ve certainly never been embarrassed before about being English, not like I am when Tommy Robinson or Nigel Farage starts speaking, apparently on my behalf. I remember my Grandad telling me about the Poles he worked alongside in WW2, trying to learn a few words of Polish to have a crack with them and vice versa, or the Italian he learnt fighting over there. Anyone who tells me that my Englishness is diminished because someone else on a bus is speaking Romanian, is off their rocker. It goes without saying that that’s not a dig at you Brian, I know you’re not one of the nutters, I’m speaking generally. I do agree with a lot of the problems that are rightly cited with the EU. I’m certainly not for greater control than is already with the EU, or even greater payments into the pot, but at least we had a say in it prior to Brexit. Then this new deal came along, where we get the worst of both worlds. Worst of all, any money we do save (ignoring the obvious self inflicted damage to the economy that’s already underway) will go on tax breaks for the wealthy. Look at the money we wasted when we got rich on North Sea oil, chucked away in tax breaks instead of invested for the future. Last but not least, if Trump thinks it’s a good idea, you know it’s because it suits his protectionist agenda for US trade. Then there’s Vlad, who’s also got a vested interest in breaking up the EU for Russia’s benefit. Anyone who thinks those two are pro Brexit because they’re looking out for the British working man, please explain why they would be? If I honestly thought we’ll take our EU contributions back and invest like Norway did in the 90s, and plan for the future and invest in over burdened services, I’d be running around saying what a bloody great idea hard Brexit is. But the only people making any money out of this, are already up to their eyeballs in cash, making fortunes out of the market and currency volatility and rubbing their hands at the prospect of U.K. deregulation as we desperately try to convince businesses, that are already here now, to stay put.

Having a vote after a previous vote is undemocratic.

It was just a general message as feelings run deep on this.

Let’s keep it friendly chaps, there’s Twitter for slagging off remainers/leavers [delete as appropriate].

“We’ve had enough of experts”.

I’m no fan of May but I don’t think another politician would have delivered anything better than she has. We already had the best deal, so the idea of it improving has been demonstrated as the fallacy it always was. It’s hilarious that all the big hitters who sold this to the public that have since disappeared off the scene in a huff, desperate to pretend the shambles wasn’t their own doing. If a subsequent vote isn’t democratic then, obviously, neither is the first one. How one informed by the actual content of the deal, can be presented as undemocratic is laughable. The only reason not to do it again is the fear of the vote changing. Which is obviously flawed thinking if you’re even slightly interested in evidence based decision making. They either need to sack it off completely or do a hard one. Otherwise we’re just making what we’ve currently got less good, for absolutely no benefit.

Don’t trust the dash voltmeter, stick a multimeter on or get one that goes in the cig lighter that you’ve checked is accurate.

Sometimes it’s best not to always have to have the last word.

Right, this is unlocked. As I've wasted 15 minutes of my life re-reading it and hiding posts, if this goes off again, that'll be it.

Thanks for the mansplain, would've been useful if I'd not watched it

Depends which of the 3 you own
