Gailion Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 Well, with the latest events I have now been able to 'detail' my car (white Q7) and the wifge's car (Emerald Green Karoq). What amazes me every time I do this si the size difference between the two. The Q7 seems to take and age to clean compared to the Karoq. I think the surprise is partly because the Q7 doesn't look big in terms of its styling. It has more of an extended estate car look compared to a Discovery for example. Anyway, rinsed, foamed, washed, dried and quick detailed and it looks good. I should really get the tar remover/clay bar done but I have never done that and would need to buy the materials for it. I use a Karcher pressure washer, Autobrite lance and snowfoam, Bilt Hamber car shampoo and Meguairs Ultimate Quik Detail spray. I think I will get some of the Meguiars Hybrid Ceramic Wax as a step up form the Quik Detail spray. I used to have the full on waxes and polishes but I can't be bothered with that now, especially on a white car. Anyone else using their extra home time to detail?

Rilla Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 Yup, 2 days of machine polishing and waxing. As for clay, Deffo a worthwhile job bud, highly recommend bilt hamber blue clay as it only requires water as a lube. I would also use tar removed prior to claying, tardis tar remover is good, but tbf autoglym tar remover is also effective. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gailion Posted March 28, 2020 Author Share Posted March 28, 2020 Thanks for the tips, I will look at getting the tar remover and clay as the paint is definitely feeling a little 'bitty. in places. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
