Re: Polish for Classics



Nice. My Dad uses it on his TR3A too.
Does anybody know the difference between 'Ultra deep shine' and 'Super
Resin' ?

Re: Polish for Classics



I can see that it's got a good shine on it, but with a paint finish of that
quality, simply washing and chamoising it will give a very good shine. I
can't see if it's swirly as hell which has always been my problem with
Autoglym's stuff, which is why I asked for a picture with the sun bouncing
off the bonnet towards the camera...


Re: Polish for Classics World's Best Wax

I was reading some of your posts and assume that many of you want the
best wax and cleanser out there.

I can get this wax and other items and can tell you it is amazingly good
quality, all natural, 46% Carnauba with Montan Oils.

www.worldsbestwax.com

I have used the clay, then cleanser and then wax on my car that I keep
in the garage all the time and I have never had as good a finish.

I can sell it at the web price plus postage.

If you have any questions let me know.

I enjoy reading your guys posts.

Thanks,

Gary

How's life in Lower Sackville, Gary? Making a living yet? Still
collecting stamps?


Go away, spammer.


You keep your car in the garage all the time? Don't you have anywhere to
go? Or do you travel by bike & bus only?


And when you keep it in the garage all the time, the finish stays that
good! You clever boy.


My question: have you spent some thought on what the 'uk' bit in this
newsgroup's name could stand for? And do you really believe everybody
here is as stupid as you are?


I didn't enjoy reading yours. Too eager to sell, too little to
contribute.

Re: Polish for Classics



My car has an original dark blue/green lacquered metallic finish. The
previous owner had left it untouched in their driveway for about 6-7 years.
When I got it I didn't even realise it was blue/green, it just looked a dull
blue. The previous owner tried to clean it (looked like with a dry sponge on
dust!) and put in a lot of swirl marks (ouch!).

I used SafeCut (hard work) and then Autoglym Super Resin (red label) (really
easy). The original owner couldn't believe it and everyone comments how
great it looks now.

I've never actually bought any polish (I borrowed the safe cut and someone
gave me an autoglym gift pack), so I can't compare with much, but I am very
happy with the autoglym, it gets rid of the swirl marks and I only need to
reapply about every 4+ months (it is garaged though). In other words I am
happy with Autoglym and I've never felt the need to look for something else.

I can recommend their shampoo too - great for taking off bird sh*t and makes
the water bead on the windows.

How well do the wiper blades work in a down-pour though?...



Re: Polish for Classics



Fine, actually. I probably comes off in a couple of wipes anyway. I learnt a
while ago that its more important to clean the wiper blades every time you
wash the car (preferably with glass cleaner).

Call yourself enthusiasts!

Zymol is the only stuff worth buying

yep them small pots of the stuff really are 7 grand as well



Re: Polish for Classics



Wonderful stuff!  If applied correctly it also enables your Bugatti Royale
to run on unleaded, and your Hurricane to fly on WW2 Russian petrol.

At this point Little Red Hooding Ride came sliding down the rainbow, crying

Indeed, and many of you have been just that in this thread!

FMR!  I presume this is the stuff you use on those hand-turned wooden
volume knobs for a few grand that the hi-fi crazies buy.

Should I apply it with a polishing mop on a Bosch PMF 180E, or should I
spring the extra money for a Fein Multimaster?
