Snow Foam, Jet Wash & £2000 Wax ;)
Hey guys.
Well i attended the meet at NE Detailing today and can say nothing less than WOW!
Amazing place and its a damn shame i didnt have much money to go spend on some goodies!!
When the guys asked if anyone wanted to try out some of the products i was straight there with my hand waving in there faces lol
I had washed the car yesterday so wasnt really dirty but had some dust on the bodywork and the wheels.
They let me spray some bilberry wheel cleaner on and i was amazed! didnt have to work it in at al, just let it soak and rinsed off and the wheels wer gleaming, would DEFO recommend this to anyone!
Then i coverd the car in snow foam and let it work in then rinsed it off with the jet was and the car was spot less!!
Now he asks if anyone would like to pull there cars in the garage and try some more products, yes i was straight there lol dried the car off with a waffle weave towel and i was VERY impressed, didnt have to ring it out once (infact it wouldn't ring out when i was done!) and left a streak free finish, VERY good!
Then my front end got abit of a whoring
Firstly the bonnet was coverd in a poor boys solution to remove all the previous wax.
then i had some Dodo Juice Purple Haze put on, and some Zymol, and another but i cant remember the name of it!!!!
i also then had some poor boys red mist sprayed on to show its effecs
BUT!!!!
The daddy of all wax's, i had some put on my car, the tub of it was worth £2000
(all wax put on by hand, not applicator pads)
Here are the pics, you can clearly see the amazing shine from the 2k Wax!!
My car in the workshop
The £2000 wax on the wing
Then buffed off
And then an outside shot, see how shiny the wing is!!!!!
Very happy with it, sadly the car is now off the road
I think some other members also took some pics so if you read this, please feel free to add them
A BIG thanks to the guys at NE Detailing, highly recommend them and i will definatly be going back there, spot on bunch of lads!
Thanks for reading

not the daddy of all wax's tbh its about second in line to his
they probablies used zymol vintage for yours but zymol royale is 7 grand
http://monzacarcare.com/products/?ca...rch_term=Enter search term
you need to get all these products karl, ive had them for years
reason they put wax on by hand is to warm the wax in the hand, your body temperature is about the right temp for wax, but you tend to e a lot of it and it goes on thick so should get some good beading from it for a good 3 month

lol yea, i got the mummy of waxes on ha
Yea they mentioned it but i didnt go into detail about it as they do a 3 step process etc etc but going to look into it.
They said the doors should be fine to machine and the lacquer shouldnt come off but it will need a respray to solve the cracking of it.

There is another Zymol wax that costs £15,000. And Zymol Atlantique is technially more expensive than Royale, a smaller tub for around £7,000

If we are going o go into which wax is the most expensive etc etc
The most expensive wax cost £1600 but it DOES NOT get refilled when empty, like the zymol range, so technically is the most expensive wax available

the zymol royale is free refills, but its not for trade use and tbh its not free as you have to pay for delivery and customs tax etc etc, will be about $400
