detailing

so I was browsing Halfords products and was going to buy the usual turtle spray on wax which I use after washing the vehicle to help clean the water off with a cloth. However I decided to try something different and went for the aqua wash, after hearing good things about hydrophobic sprays...

Straight question requiring a straight answer please (don’t want comments about swirls please!) Can I put my T6 Kombi van short wheelbase through a standard forecourt garage car wash please ? Thanks in advance.

I'm grumpy now.. Few hours spare, thought I'd give the old girl a bath and got the Karcher out. Set all the bits out on the kitchen drainer and hooked the Karch up. Decided to give it a zap with the pressure washer before doing the snow foam bit, and as the van dripped, came inside to change...

Full iron removal De-Tar 2 stage clay 2 stage machine polish including the alloys Hand polished Then a multi layer of Gyeon ceramic coating applied :)

can anyone recommend a good one please?? Thanks.

I put a deposit on a T6 in November. Picked it up this week. (Love it) When I paid the deposit I specified for it not to be washed or detailed at all. When I spoke to the dealer in early Jan I reminded him of this. In Feb we spoke again and he remembered my no wash request when going over...

As you can imagine I have used loads of black trim cleaners, sealers, restorers to keep the matt black trims on the exterior looking good. The wheel arch protectors are particularly prone to going milky or grey in sunlight or after wax washing. Finally, I have found this from Autobrite...

So my Maguires drying towel was getting a bit long in the tooth, off I went to replace it and saw this.... Thought I’d give it a try, and very very impressed....just thought I’d share! :thumbsup:

Quite enjoy washing my van, but it feels that within about 2 hours it's fitlhy again! It is black but can get really annoying. Wash, polish and wax it reasonably regular but nothing seems to keep the dirt off very long. Any recommendations? Are these ceramic treatments any good? Any...

Dutch cousin of Shiny Van Saturday :)

Hi all Did search for info but it was a bit disjointed with other info on thread. I realise that there are many different products out there which affects the costs but the variations seem extreme. So, in an attempt to unscramble my brain... Any advice regarding costs for a decent detailing...

So what's your polish?

So, as the delivery date grows ever closer for my Kombi in blackberry (first week in September), I have started wasting spending my hard-earned on cleaning and detailing products. So far I have bought- micro-fibre wash mitt Demon shine snow foam Demon shine tyre shine Armor-all wheel seal...

God I missed doing a proper wash and wax job. Was pointless on my touran for the last 3 years after she took it through a roller car wash and swirled all the paint. It's good to be back baby

Just been and brought the rest of what I need to start detailing the van!

one for @T6dder!!!!! Gave the van a good wash today inside and out post France trip and ahead of going in for the air ride...... This time next week folks, it'll look a whole lot different!! (And hopefully will go in that garage behind!!!)

How many guys get there T6 washed in a car wash and does anyone know what harm the chemicals (TFR) does to your pride and joy . I will never take my van to a car wash but choose to wash my self with the products that keep the shine in your pride and joy . How many guys have been bitten by the...

Ok so I've been slowly building up my detailing arsenal, stealthy buys here and there so the boss doesn't hit the roof :whistle: problem is I can't decide what I should use for the plastic trim on the outside. I've sort of narrowed it down to the swissvax protection matt but it isn't cheap so I...
