greenymk7 Posted December 21, 2009 Author Share Posted December 21, 2009 if your going to clean get it done as quick as possible and then get inside for some detailing and waxing. i wont be doing mine until we get some warmer weather though. unfortunatly that means driving round in a black car that looks nearly white because of all the salt :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hammie Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 http://www.carnaubawaxshop.co.uk/shop/view...?product_id=182 is this a good starter kit?? what the best stuff for white cars? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanGull Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 http://www.carnaubawaxshop.co.uk/shop/view...?product_id=182 is this a good starter kit?? what the best stuff for white cars? It is good Hammie - but doesn't include a wax, whereas this may be more expensive, but it's better value in terms of the amount of products it contains... Detailing Starter Kit You could then go for any of the Dodo waxes - the pictures above show what diamond white can do, I'm loving purple haze on min as a top layer at present as well. Or this one contains Supernatural, which is in my wax top 5... Supernatural Bundle Another wax which is worth considering on white is Swissvax Glacier - or of course Swisswax Best of Show but that's £150 a pot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammie Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 iv got autoglym HD wax and a few other bits but want to get into detailing more,when i put tyre dressing on my car it ends up on the side of the car how do i stop this?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HD looks great on white - The first detail I ever did on the mk7 was using HD. Are you using a spray tyre dressing? I've never got on with those. Get some Megs endurance gel and the special applicator, it looks great and keeps everything on the tyres only. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammie Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 no iv got sum sonus tyre dressing,yeh the HD is amazing stuff.whats best to keep the white clean in this weather or even in the summer for w while im cleaning mine every 2-3days iv just given up in this weather Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hook Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 I also got a new PW for Christmas - a heated one! Wooo, cold weather will hold me back no longer. Careful Dan, warm water freezes faster than cold water, so you could end up with your car covered in a sheet of ice... :-" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanGull Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 Don't worry hook - I've just had a floor drain fitted in the garage - so detailing is going indoors from now on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
