Tried a new wax ...Some pictures

[Glync]

Evening Guys hope you don’t mind me sharing some pictures. I am just well chuffed with my efforts
I spent this morning giving the 8 a good clean as I had picked up a couple of goodies to try on her.
First off I had ran out of my usual wax R222 which whilst gives a cracking finish doesn’t seem that durable, I was going to get some Collinite as I had heard good things about that. But just before I ordered I started looking at chemical guys Pete’s 53 and ended up with that ! Mainly as they reckon its perfect for darker paints and metallics. Then I ordered some Gtechniq Leather guard as I find my leather belt rubs the back of the seat and was leaving a mark. It cleans off but I thought I would try this stuff as I had my seats marked by jeans in a Merc with cream leather I had a few years ago. So I thought better safe than sorry and for only £6 it seemed a bargain. I have used their trim restorer on wifey’s motor as the plastics get stained and look rough after a while. Their restorer is the only stuff I have found to protect it for a decent period.

Anyway I decided to give it a very quick machine polish first with just Black Max from Britemax. I have found this stuff the best for shifting the last of the swirls and haze on dark colours. It doesn’t fill them it shifts them and it is just so easy to use as a final polish/glaze before waxing. Didn’t take long as I keep her in good condition with regular washing and waxing.

Anyway then I applied some of the new wax, all I can say wow what a finish. Very easy to apply and just as easy to buff off. It gives superb gloss but also brings out the flake stunning

I cleaned the leather with some autoglym leather cleaner then applied the Leather protector, easy enough I’ll let you know how that go’s over time.

Here’s some pictures I took, well pleased
