Autoglym Products

[Fats]

Hey,

Am looking for good quality cleaning products for my car. I have used autoglym before and loved the results.

Was wondering if anyone has has used autoglym products and what they thought of it. Also is there a better product out there which is around the same price?

AutoGlym is the shitz nitz of cleaning products.

Back in 04 I had entered my good ol Teg into the Melb AutoSalon, a few nights prior to the even I had spray painted the brake calipers in a real bright red, me the dummy didn't think about placing a cover on the car so the over spray went all over the thing and at the show an AutoGlym rep came up to me saying he could get it all out....

He said he wanted to do a Demo on my car to show people how good their products are, he went ahead with it all and used just about every product in their range on my car, point of the story is that the can looked like it had just come out of the dealer even tho the paint back then was roughly 14yrs old and all the work had been done within 40-60mins...

One things I like in particular about their polishes is that when you apply it, it doesn't go all think and hard as to make buffing a pain in the back side, you can do a whole panel and then buff it off in one go with minimal effort, also it provides great protection from the elements, makes washing your car much easier if you give it a buff every few months as it keeps the paint nice and smooth.

I have been using it ever since that AutoSalon and wont use anything else, I know I may start to sound like a product rep for them but I'm seriously happy with their products and for the price of some of the stuff it is totally worth it.

Even my missus will agree since I've just recently given her Velocity Red (metallic with plenty of pearl) a nice good polish with this stuff and she was stoked to see how shiny the whole car looked.

I've also just recently tried another product that was handed out to us at a recent OzMPS Dyno day by HPF, it's called VoodoRide and they have various products in their range, I've got the quick detailer and boy that thing is awesome!!!!

You can detail and clean just about anything, from plastic, interior trim, glass, leather, painted panels etc etc all from the one can, which apparently does your car 6-7 times over. It also came with a microfiber cloth and I love using it now for cleaning my interior and touching it up after I've given it a wash.

Thanks Dan, I appreciate your help!. Like i said i was pretty impressed with the stuff, my ex used it on my car and it just looked amazing, even the feel of the car afterwoods. Wish i paid attention to what product it was that he used....lol i just remember the brand. I watched him polish the car and it looked so easy, wipe it on let it dry and wipe off...was amazed at how easy it came off!

No worries Fats

I use a couple of Prima products which are the same in application and give a spectacular finish. They're silicon-based spray products that you can use on wet or dry surfaces.

Prima Hydro: ZAS Car Detailing Products : Prima Hydro Spray Wax/Sealant 473ml

and

Prima Slick: ZAS Car Detailing Products : Prima Slick Polymer Fortified Quick Detailer 473ml

Hydro is a combined spray wax and sealant. Slick is more of a detailing product

I normally use Slick after each four washes, and then Hydro on the fifth wash. I also tend to use them on a dry surface (after patting the car dry with a waffle weave towel)

ZAS also do DIY paint protection products, which guys like Postman Dan have done and look incredible. I've got the kit at home. Just haven't had time to apply yet (to do properly it takes a good couple of days)

hmm, my problem is that i like watching someone do it for me while i have a couple of drinks lol.... Do we have any good detailers in VIC???

Another +1 for autoglym products.
Every panelshop I've ever worked in used nothing but their products.

Really easy to use unlike some polish

Countrychic asked dad (rd415) what polish he uses on his pearl white mps as you could see a difference with her white Mazda 2.
I believe she got some and they are now equally bright

IMO you don't need a detailer unless you're not much of a fussy owner like I am.

I've been known to have spent 2-3hrs cleaning my car, from washing it, to cleaning and detailing the interior and also doing the exterior, and most times even cleaning the door jabs and engine bay, boot and using plastic polish on my headlight/taillight lenses.

if you have patience and time on your hands you can yield great results!

There's always a certain appeal to watching others work while you kick back

On my car though I tend to do it all myself, but it's only because I'm sick and twisted and actually enjoy it

I think there are a couple of threads where guys have mentioned good detailers in Melb though

If you want a good detailer in Melbourne then I can recommend Eurogloss Prestige.

A good job doesn't come cheap though. And he doesn't use Autoglym I'm sorry
