Good work again, looking sharp as ever!

Cheers.

No kids at the moment... But, hopefully within the 5-6 years I presently intend in keeping her... (The car that is...)

However, the sealant element should maker the removal of such 'contaminants' easier...

I'm planning in cleaning and sealing the carpets at some point also. Yep, OCD...

Where did you buy your 'shares' in Dodo?

Any place got offers on?

I should have bought many shares...

Amusingly I'm expecting the 'Postie' to bring more tomorrow... I ran out of Ferrous Dueller and now my other half's car requires the same treatment...

My aches are only just going from my own...

Kit came from Amazon and eBay. No shops nearby selling the stuff.

Mate, I used him when I first got my car, very good. More than happy to discuss further should you wish. PM me.

Forgive me resurrecting an old thread but, following recommendations here, I treated my car to a second detail today in order to apply some newly acquired Dodo Juice Supernatural Hybrid.

Wow. It looks gorgeous (sorry, there was no room to get some decent pics). The Glacier Silver has taken on an almost pearlescent wet shine that is just gorgeous.

The only thing I found difficult was judging the quality and evenness of application because, on silver paint, the haze of the wax isn't very easy to see. Still, the finished result is awesome

My wifes car is silver and its an absolute dog to wax/seal. But, silver is soooo forgiving in terms of defects like swirls or scratches so it makes up for itself. We do need a pic though !!!

It does look good when finished, my wife's car is thunder grey ( weird ford colour lol) it has 2 coats of supernatural hybrid on it, so smooth, slick now and amazing beading.

There is something very satisfying to look at a car with a glossy sheen which beads water brilliantly in the rain.

Especially when you spent 8 -9 hours previous day doing it all lol.

I'm glad it worked for you also. The Supernatural Hybrid us an amazing wax/sealant, such deep gloss...

I found layering some normal Supernatural Wax on top really enhanced the metallic flecks in my Mineral Grey. It is exceptionally easy to apply on top if the SNH.

Earlier this week I washed off the Saharan Dust and topped up with Supernatural Acrylic Spritz, the shine and reflections are awesome for about an hour or so of work all in.

I did my better half's Red Yaris SR and the SNH works amazingly on her solid red paint also. It's just so glossy.

I'd love to see a picture of how your Glacier Silver came out.

[Rich9600]

Her car done and my car just washed. About three weeks on.

I spent around 8-9 hours doing the Z4 yesterday! I could justify the 335d being done professionally as it was new and didn't really need correction or too much prep, but the Z4 hadn't been protected since the autumn and was in need of some TLC! Being Sapphire black it does clean up well but is horrendous for the swirls and light scratches.

So it was washed (snow foam/2 buckets/lambswool mitt) then spent ages removing all the tar spotting, then washed again, then clayed all over. Then I machined polished the entire surface to reduce the swirls. Then I used Poorboys black Hole glaze all over, followed by Poorboys EX-P, which is a Sealant with Carnauba.

I really need to get myself some of this Dodo juice stuff that you guys all rave about! I just used the stuff that I have in the garage already, and most of it I'm pretty happy with, but always good to try new things!

I didn't get any pics as it was almost dark by the time I finished, will try today. I do enjoy the process of detailing ones own car, but with 2 cars to look after I am pleased that the 335d has a semi-permanent nano-coat that minimises the care it needs! If the Z4 took me 8 hours then god know how long a tourer would take!

Try some lime prime lite for swirls etc.
Plenty dodo for black paints, purple haze pro is good, and mix of that and blue velvet would work. Or try some rain forest.
You can get a panel pot mix, panel pots will easily do your Z4, that might be best starting point.

Anyone using Gtechniq on their cars? I've bought most of their products ready for when my B/S f30 arrives. Been interested to gain some feedback.

The glass g1 and g5 are great!!, but a guy on here think it's ///MSport420 has g3 on his with pics in this thread, it's called collection pics I think. Looks fab.

Edit- just checked I thought that g3 was by gtechniq but it's not, sorry

[JoshB25]

I've got C5 on my wheels on my F21. Really impressed with it. Looking forward to trying it everything when the F30 arrives. Finger crossed soon!!
