Space Cadet Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 Had the Z Permagard'ed yesterday, it looks absolutely amazing, better than new, the finish is unbelievable, cant stop looking out of the lounge window at it. The best thing is that it doesn’t need to be washed or polished in the future, just sponged off with plain water and dried. It cost £160 for the bodywork and I paid an extra £45 for the windows, so plus VAT came to £240 definitely well worth the money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should have checked out eBay, I got some for £6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluffy Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 I guess this is similar to supaguard? Is it worth while buying some off ebay? I know it doesnt protect against stone chips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Cadet Posted July 3, 2006 Author Share Posted July 3, 2006 Don’t know anything about Supaguard so can’t compare. They did such a professional job and the car was in all day, that for £240 I'm happy to have paid them to do it. The manager had obviously had his car done and he showed me his car's wheel, it was filthy with brake dust and just with a sponge and plain water he wiped it clean, I was gob smacked. I have never seen the car look so good, even when I have spent all day with various layers of Meguiars polishes. Obviously time will tell, but first impressions are good.

Traktion Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 I was thinking of having this done at some point. I know there have been some negative views/experiences on this, but Evo magazine have been happy with it on a couple of their cars (or something similar to Permaguard) and others have too with success. I do like the idea of not having to wash it much as I can't use a hose pipe in my current location, so it's a case of humping buckets of hot water down 3 flights of stairs every few minutes!

AK47 Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 yeah glad you're so impressed 'cause Parmagard is also high on my to-do list! I'm an avid EVO enthusiast and they've been very impressed with the product on their Fezza 550... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Cadet Posted July 24, 2006 Author Share Posted July 24, 2006 First clean since having it Permagarded, just a couple of drops of this 'special’ PH friendly shampoo in the bucket and the wash mitt and even the brake dust just came straight off. Just gave it a shammy (correct spelling?) , a couple of small spots (presumably bird mess or a big fly) just needed a little drop of the ‘special’ polish stuff on a cloth and the car looks like new again. Well worth the money and would recommend it to everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
