..man I wish Autoglym didn't pull out of Canada... so much nice stuff we didn't get.

At its not always possible to work on a car that's not in direct sun, which is the best pre wash that can be applied in sunlight without harming the paint if it dries on. If the answer is none, then what's the answer?

It amazes me how many of these are not available in the US.

thank you I just do it the slow way 😊

That's a lot of Bilt Hamber, I always read that you didn't need to use much of it, so it was really economical. 1:10 would be a lot smaller amount of product, about 90ml of product compared to 300ml+, that would be about 1:2.

Brilliant! Are you Glasgow based?!

Where have you gone speccy?

Nothing wrong with taking the time and just do it by hand. Allways great result with this product. Never the risk of damage the paint .

Specky how long to you let the wax sit on panel before you wipe off?

Just ordered the p50 from b&q for £189 no bundle but just ordered the foam Canon from ava cos that's all I need, hope to see you back on KZfaq soon

Which dryer is this one? Because I’m looking to get one

Wow...there should be a BSc Hons degree in snow foam application 😂

What do you mean by 4% ? Does that mean 4 parts foam to 96 parts water?

Hi Specky, can you use the bodywork conditioner shampoo on a ceramic coated car or is the pure shampoo a better option

Very interesting 👍

Great value little product , ideal to freshen up after a wash ontop of well prepared paint and maybe as a topper

👍👍😊

I agree with the other comments Specky, good to see you back

The only cake i eat is my wifes cake. 😌

good to see you back, and very true my friend, but please say you haven't bought a Nissan Kumquat.......😱

So good to see you back mate

You are right, but it is a kind of marketing for you, that's will help your service to gain more money, It gives the customer the impression that the service provider is professional and uses valuable materials to serve him.

I’ve been using 4 star Ultimate Paint Protection for 20 years. It’s a liquid. You first prep the car with a chemical cleaner of your choice. Then you put the product on the entire vehicle, wait an hour, then dust off. I’ve had it keep beading for at least 6 months.

Car polish is abrasive and should be used with car which is why I'd always do it by hand. I would use machine for more of a restoration job

You don’t even need a buffer with arms that quick 😂

You need 3 snow guns

Simoniz does actually say apply with a clean damp cloth.

Will have to purchase these to help with my valeting will make life easy for cleaning wheels.

Nice1..Specks & thank u

Surfex hd just does it. I use it as "pre wash" and wheel cleaner.

Hi, great video, just wondering if it can be used on pvc windows and doors? Personally I can't see why not, however you've tried and tested various products, so would have more experience to confirm or don't recommend, thank you

This was very interesting and spot on. I have lost count the number of KZfaq presentations that I have seen where they just gestimate the amount of product to employ, whether it is snow foam, wash shampoo, compound, polish or scratch remover, etc. then they criticise the product or claim that it has limitations against what the manufacturers claims are. It is just the same as those who buy a flat pack, put it together without reading the instructions and wonder why it hasn't turned out as expected. In relation to whether you rinse from the bottom or rinse from the top first. I hear the logic and views of different people. However, I don't see anyone making a tissue wipe test to demonstrate which method removes the most dirt or is the most effective. My view is if you are happy with your routine and it gets the result you wanted. Then that is fine don't listen to the critics, unless they can demonstrate that their way is better than the viewers. I completely agree with you, it depends on what dirt you are tackling light road film, versus mud splash and lumps. I agree what you say that it is personal preference regarding pre-rinsing. Some argue that dirt is different according to location, time of year, time of day, type of driving, now concentrated the dirt is, etc. I have lost count how many times I have heard this argument, but what I seldom hear is what tests were carried out by the product manufacturer! when testing their product. I do wonder when I see a contact wash product used as a contactless foam and then compared to a contactless foam, to then conclude that the contactless foam is better! First thing I consider is what the product manufacturer advise for the best result. Then from my own findings what works best. This was a really interesting presentation and brilliant take on how to approach product use, I loved it, and you speak many a true word.

Always pre rinse

Fantastic video - so informative and minimal waffle. Love your presenting style. Thanks!

The mats look useful but maybe not so good for gravel? The plastic looks quite brittle so I would be concerned that when used on say 20mm gravel there would not be enough even support so would result in the mats cracking. Perhaps you could test on gravel in the future?

Great demonstration of the product set. This is the first time I've watched the channel - I could not resist clicking on something named "Specky McSporran"! I'll check out the rest of your videos. Cheers

I tried some of the new black formula today, unfortunately didn’t go smooth. I’m used to applying ceramic coats and pasty waxes but this feels very different. I applied as little as I could each time, shadow area, still ended up with many high spots! Not easy at all

Would or have you used the ceramic coating they do?

Hi, l have a black laminate worktop beside my sink that's developed a few surface scratches and some faded yellowing around the scraches, I've tried white vinegar/bicarbonate soda but doesn't work, interestingly l wiped on wd40 and it has worked and restored the black sheen but I think it will wash off with warm soapy water, do you think t cut scratch remover would return the original black sheen to the laminate if it was well polished in? Does t cut scratch remover contain a wax ? Thanks m8

Hi hope a suggestion , im been using the old one , but its seems after days rain n shine its left a dirty marks n stain on the my white car. It is because im applying it during a day n not under a roof ??

I tried the new fusso on my garage queen at the beginning of this year. I also put fusso 3 month wax over the top the following day, as I have done with the older 12month fusso. It’s definitely more user friendly than the older product. I took my car out over the weekend and found after 1 wash it doesn’t stand up as well to the elements as the older 12month does. Thankfully I still have the older version left.

I remember this from a kid my granddad and bro used it . I remember it was a hard polish to get off .one my work mates put it on a bonet it won’t come off then man who owned the car want happy n asked me haw get it off I told him I tryed taking it off but won’t come off need a buffing merchen take it off he laughed at me so I said I no what I’m talking about as I was a Valeter at Land Rover soon changed his mind n was asking for prices I told him I don’t do it any more n don’t no anyone that does it. Never take piss out someone that knows what there on about he sold the car n lost some cash as sold with a big white coat patch on the bonnet should took the advise

Watching this even I don't have a car 😂

I’ve watched so many videos where this happens. Mine goes on and stick for ages. I’m just using Polar Blast.

Why the back ground music???????? mind numbing

what I will say is if you actually have surface scratches on your paint, using a polisher will remove them better. It will look identical at first glace when compare to applying by hand but that's only because of the fillers that are inside the SRP. once the wax comes off after a few months, along with the fillers all your scratches will come back. SRP is only slightly abrasive so you will only remove maybe 10% of the scratches and swirls on the paint by hand whereas if you used a machine polisher it will actually remove most of the swirls, permanently. In that instance, it gives massively different results. I think SRP is a fantastic product but I also think of it as a temporary fake polish as the fillers make you think you've removed the scratches when actually 90% of them are still there and will come back and be visible again.

brilliant review thank you

Rinsing from top to bottom or bottom to top, for the few seconds it takes I'm not convinced that it really matters. An extra 15-20 seconds soak time isn't going to make much, if any, difference at all.

Brilliant, thank you. The thumbnail showed the problem I was having. Explained exactly where I was going wrong and how to fix it. One thing I'm still confused about is how to read the flow rate, as the value quoted in the video are at max setting which typically you would not be using. I have an AVA Smart P60 and the manufacturers quote a flow rate of 6.7L per minute. Isn't this a more important figure, and how would this figure be combined with a product's PIR ratio?
