Default New products for car??

looking at getting some more cleaning stuff now as the weathers getting abit better, etc for my wicked red vtr.

I currently use ag shampoo, ag srp, ag egp, chemical guys xxx hardcore wax.

I want some different shampoo, polish tbh just to see if get any better results and some wheel sealent and cleaner and tire stuff.

It will be getting clayed and maybe machine polished when i get it back on the road properly form finishing the vts swap and the shows start.

Right......if you want a good finish you have got to clay....its a step of detailing most people ignore and you can tell with their results...just get the megs clay kit...its only like £15 iirc



Shampoo,

Polish,
http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/polish...r/prod_93.html

Add this sealant,
http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/sealan.../prod_339.html

Use your existing wax or if you want something better get this,
http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/wax/do.../prod_397.html

And if you want a realllyyyyyyyyy good finish after 24 hours add a coat of this,

Wheels,


Cleaner,
http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/wheels.../prod_499.html

Sealant...You can use the one i listed above for the bodywork or buy a wheel specific one,
http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/wheels...nt/prod_9.html

Tyres,

The foam ones imo are only good for tyre gels, trim gels etc etc.

MF are far superior and can be used for anything.........polishing, glaze, sealant, wax, tyre gels, wheel sealants, glass sealants the lot.

I use like dish clothes for the black trims but i use the carplan trim stuff thats thick for that on my car.

So i will get and order some MF pads when order all other stuff and looking at getting a snowfoam too soon.
