Welcome to Tranquility Base Detailing.
In this video we try out the Autoglym Polar range. Consisting of Polar Foam, Polar Wash and Polar Seal. Is it worth buying?
Best price for the Autoglym Polar trio is here:

I do have all of the Polar Product Range, with the liquid in large quantities due to promotions. The Polar Gun is great, and the Polar Wash is OK, though after a few wash excursions I do skip the other products as I find them to be unnecessarily time consuming with zero benefit. So, I go rinse, Polar Wash with gentle agitation, Pure Shampoo 2 buckets method, followed by Ceramic Spray . . . Obviously then some tyre and trim finishers

I find that the polar seal isn't quite as good as auto finesse lavish ceramic foam. The polar wash is okay but I don't like a wash foam I only use foam for pre rinse like the blast. The blast is great

Got a car with a pearlescent white paint and like you said I wanted to up my game from wash and wax shampoo and a sponge. Invested in this as a newbie and been impressed from what I was doing. I have nothing to compare to mind, but once I’ve used it will probably look to Bilt Hamber as many have recommended.

Used to use this years ago when it first come out the polar blast (snow foam) was expensive £18 for 2.5 litres ? And it cleans ok the same goes for the shampoo it's OK at best compared to say garage therapy snow foam and bilt hamber auto foam/touchless which are much cheaper and clean considerably better i still use the polar seal that's not to bad value for money using only 40ml Auto Glym are old school and still make some cracking products the quick ceramic Detailer in my opinion is 1 of the best out there 👍👌

There are two connector styles with Nilfisk I believe. There is the standard Nilfisk one and also one called Alto. Look on In2Detailings website as they list all the options. Then it's just a case of removing the current connector and replacing with the correct one.

I always wonder sometimes it's not products you use people get disappointed how the final wash and shine finish is. It's the paint of the vehicle of the vehicle when it was sprayed at factory. Different paints have different effects on final glow and shine. Matt finish car from factory paint won't give ultimate glow and extreme shine.

This is no problem. What I recommend is to dry the car with, for example, a leaf blower and then finish with a fiber cloth. Just make sure that no water droplet dries up. The beading etc on the windshield is particularly good, the wipers will not cause white streaks. In the meantime, what are your findings?

Good questions bud. So in theory if you can wash your car without physical contact it's safer for the paint. This means if you can get away with a foam/rinse combo then do that. However as this video shows the foam is not strong enough to fully clean the car without sponge/mitt work. This is where I need to advise a little caution. Could you sponge in and rinse? Yes. Is the foam slick enough to allow that without significant scratching? Depends how dirty the car is.

I used this with the Karcher k2. Followed instructions as far as I know. Yet even after their 3 treatments, when the car had dried it would still be dirty underneath. I don’t know if it’s the k2 that doesn’t have enough power or what. But either way I’ve gone back to elbow grease with a sponge. Faffing around with all of that and power leads and hoses getting tangled all for nothing. Total waste of money imo.

After watching the video again I've got to say I'm converted, thinking it was too much hassle with 3 products I was wrong, the system does work which demonstrated superbly, the Blast does not need to be used on most cars and the Seal is by far the best out there I feel, Bilt Hamber or Polar Range? it's the Polar Range for me and my customers, they love the results.

Your answer to - Is it worth buying, No, if you're already into detailing or Yes, if you have no experience in detailing and just want a clean car. In which case you're saying not for yourself.. Having used the products I would say If you're looking for a quick way and cheap way to clean the car then great this is because you get some paint protection, but the bucket and washing solution will be cheaper with no paint protection. The take away from this is, no good car cleaning is done quickly, put research and effort in and you will get better results and a longer paint protection period.

My understanding was that these products are supposed to be just spray on/spray off to save the need for the manual work. Doesn't it kind of miss the point if you're going to rinse the car first and use a brush or other tool to loosen the dirt? If you're just going to wash and wipe you'd get more or less the same results with most products. For me, what you did there was no quicker than just using a bucket and soap.

Blast certainly lacks the bite that many other foams offer thats for sure. Wash, when we first foamed it on felt like it was really lacking in slickness but a little adjustment on the lance dial and it was much better (also, it was much much better on an already protected car) and l, like you say, Seal is a decent product.
