How tough a job is it to put carlack68 on though, I put it on today, the cleaner I thought was gonna be the hard bit, working it in swirl motions vigourously was a bit tiring, then the buff off when it turns grey ? I mean come on I was cream crackered  :grin: Then the sealant, ok that bit was fairly straight forward but I was still zonked from the clean part.

you're supposed to moisten the microfibre a bit when you take it off numbnutz!! didn't you translate the instructions?!  :huh:

I did :smug:

numbnutz  :grin:

Eh no, your supposed to moisten it when you buff off the sealant, not the cleaner.

Yes Kev, I used a microfibra which was moist to do both applications no problems mate, My back window & side windows are tinted anyway standard on the GTD, but front window no problems there. It save's usieng the wipers , well you dont need them with this stuff!! Esp doing over 30mph just beads off!!  :cool:

Instructions didnt say to moisten both, oh well, will do that next time then.
For the money the wax is not long lasting IMO?? Buts its good expensive though?? :cool:
