Combination of Collinite 845 (Applied by the seller at the time, and not very well unfortunately) and Infinity Wax Diamond Vision on the rear window.

Full detail planned next week, where we’ll apply a two-stage ceramic coat for some durable protection and top notch beading 8)
Looking forward to the pictures. :thumbsup:

Thanks! I’ll start a separate thread for the detailing work we’ll be doing, documenting what we do, how we do it and the products we use. Hopefully it will prove useful to others :thumbsup:
 
Nothing special, just Autoglym with gloss enhancer. I think it's a good result for an hours work.

Iced beads due to the sudden drop of temp here in NL. It reminded me of my Rosso Competizione 159, which had beading during the day, and icey beading shortly after

Just been outside after a downpour... and was quite impressed with the beading! (this I'm guessing, is the autoglym polar seal in action)

Gtechniq C2V3 ceramic coating applied last May. Still impressed by beading after being washed yesterday.

Just to be a bit different... beading with G29 in reflection.

The garage door was heavily oxidised and looking pretty horrendous. A quick cut and polish later and a bit of protection...

Excellent ! :thumbsup: What products are you using and what's your process ?
Thanks, I have been using Bill Hamber Double Speed wax.

The car in the picture is my daily 640d which I had machine polished a couple of years ago. The car does a few miles and generally gets a clean once a month if it's lucky. This was over the Easter weekend and I washed it and my wife's X3 before giving them both a single coat of the Speed Wax.

I've also used it on my Z4 last year and was quite surprised that when I took it out of the garage for it's MOT the other week the wax had lost none of it's properties since I waxed it last summer. It's pretty good value at £16 too.

Bilt Hamber make some great products. I have a few in my 'arsenal' at the moment. Touchless Snowfoam, Surfex HD, AutoWheels and Atom Mac all work brilliantly and are also excellent value for money :thumbsup:
