Title: Help, please confirm if I can do this. UPDATED - HELP
Post by: Big Tone on 03 June 2012, 10:22
I have done two grades of compound, megs 84 + 88 (i think lol), using the rotary.
Since then the weather has been sh!te and is raining.
Once it has stopped am I ok to wash it normally, dry, glaze, seal then wax?

Or would I be better going over it by hand using srp or a cleaner polish before glazing?

or anything different? Lol

Cheers

You've finished the polishing with the rotary right?

You'll be fine, wait til it stops raining, give it a real light wash. Good dry. You say glaze, seal, then wax...What products are you using?

Normally you'll only need to do one of either the SEAL OR WAX. Doing both is overkill I'd say. A glaze would go well with a sealant after its been raining I'd have though  :smiley:

Wowzer. Sounds lovely, that will be awesome. I'd leave out the DJ wax this time. Blackhole and jetseal is meant to be a wicked combo!

As long as you don't forget to put the pics  :wink:

Don't worry, lol.

Will be trying just the two this time, found the beading to be a bit savage last time, left spots all over her when she dried naturally.

Help,

I seem to have put my sealant and glaze "somewhere safe".

Can anyone reccommend some products that will just be enough to do one car? If there is such a thing.

Dont really want to fork out £40 squid for them to be used once and sit around again for another 12 months.

Check the personal sales part of detailing world can usually pick up part used products, for less than rrp, plus the products you were planning to use are quite common and seem to be favoured so can come up quite regularly so you could prob get what you were planning to use anyway
