My main products are angelwax waxes for mine. After a wash i use quick detailer to keep on top of the protection between full wax and decon. Currently using bouncers wax done and dusted after washes. Ive got soft 99 leather barrier for the seats and wash mist as the dash dressing. KKD tyresol for tyres and ive used angelwax bilberry wheel sealant. I do like the chemical guys stripper scent spray as well. Ive got a couple of shelves full of stuff

As soon as I read it, I could see it, prior to that I was like o_O why's Russ showing us a picture of the drainage line on his driveway? :D:D

As soon as you've seen it you can't un-see it. :rolleyes:

Shiney! :eek::D:D

I knew it was some sort of reflection but couldn't figure it out.

Started using AutoGlym on my R75 10 years ago - Never looked back!

I started using Autoglymn products in the 80's and have never strayed from them for long, so easy to use.

Looks very clean and tidy Bill, are you not tempted to de-chrome the rest of the car to match the grill or, get the outer edge of the grille chromed to conform with the rest of the car?

Hey Dean, could you also post a pic of your rear wheels which shows the red caliper to good effect please?

I have a full tin of red smoothrite calling my name in the garage but, the silver I painted on last week ...er no, two weeks ago now, still looks good and O.E.

Decisions, decisions... :rolleyes:

Halfords do a spray can called back to black which works well for a few months

A few months??? :shock::shock:

Usually as soon as the car gets wet, back to black is gone, and as I live in Rainland... I mean Scotland. It looks good for five minutes if you're lucky up here mate.
WD40 does the same job, last longer, smells nicer and also lifts any polish from the plastic. :geek:

I've taken to masking off the plastic where/when I don't want to spend time getting excess polish off it and then go over it with a cloth sprayed with said WD40 to make it look nice and shiney. :cool:
