All 3 are good, v good price on the wash mitt

 

The detailer is used between polishes after a wash (can be used to aid drying) to bring the shine back and offers a little protection

 

Good starter kit there though, gold class Sian easy polish with good results

i use the dodo supernatural - but as others have said, ask the question 10 times and you'll get 10 different answers :lol:

enjoy ;)

 

Tried most waxes and supernatural is my favourite for the money

can't check ebay links from work computer :dry: so will have to wait till i get home.

 

I'm leaning towards the megs products to start off with - keep it simple with one brand and then the following time try the autoglym with supernatural :)

so i've bought the megs lambswool mitt and i found this little treat to go along with it.

i actually bought it from ebay for £25. i think that's got me sorted for now as it includes pretty much everything that i'd need for a starter kit

That's a great kit and I use the Megs lambswool mitt too which is great.

 

Just remember to use the two bucket method when you wash the car using the mitt. Eg: one bucket with your shampoo in & one bucket with just water ~ you dip the mitt in the shampoo, shampoo an area of the car, rinse the mitt in the water bucket then repeat until you've done the entire car. :thumbs:

Yep I'm gonna dig out some buckets I've got lying around in the garage. I wish I had the products today actually as the weathers nice and clear today and would have been perfect for a clean!

Nice Zed!

 

right.. lets get down to it.. what's the best wax for an Azure zed?? my last car was red and i used dodo juice bright colour products (and i like em B)).

 

 

 

Thanks mate

 

I used purple haze as recommended by members on here. Gave great water repellency but not that glossy. So alternated between that and megs tech wax which is very glossy. On major details I used both together

Surprised there aren't more shouts for Dodo juice products on here??

 

I gave my Zed a pre winter wax using all dodo juice products as follows; born to be mild shampoo, basics of bling clay bar with born slippy lube, more BTBM, lime prime and finally two coats of banana armour (yellow zed)

 

Interim washes using more BTBM with a coat of red mist tropical. Beads like crazy, shines like a good 'en B)

 

End of Feb (3 months later) will be due two further coats of banana armour after washing with BTBM

 

May will bring an annual professional detail, looking good for the summer . . . . . . . .
