Re: HI GUYS & gals DAVE from NewZealand

Better ones need to be sourced from waxit here in australia or O/S from Pakshak/Autopia car care/Detailers Paradise
I'm getting some direct from a big south korean manufacturer very shortly.

Most people here know that I'm not a meguiars fan, I left that behind ten years ago
Like autoglym and other brands in this bracket, they have fallen behind in some areas

NZ sure is an awesome looking place. I must get there at some time in my life.
Oh and I got my shop size wrong, it's 1100 sq metres on a 2000 sq metre lot (tonnes of car parking

Do you mean UDM? or something like the UDM?

I had a look on waxit and those machines are wayyy too expensive for me

Great! Looking foward to it.

Picked up a meg's waffle weave MF drying towel from LJ Smits today, Woooah i've been missing out
Also got a small 250ml pot of touch up paint (I believe he said it was a base coat with clear mixed in) Just need some isoprophyl alcohol to clean out the chips on my hood properly before filling them.

In other news, I'm finding it hard to find a part time detailing job anywhere semi close to home

Oh well, Best wishes to all NZ Autopians

Re: HI GUYS & gals DAVE from NewZealand

Just a little update, the Megs one is avalible for pre order now in the UK, the bad news is its £150. $300 USD, $350 AUD, $414 NZD.

£50 more then i was expecting, i suspect thats just a machine. Local prices maybe cheaper, you hope.

Sounds like another perfect candidate for a Flex or Rotary.

Re: HI GUYS & gals DAVE from NewZealand

From what I see in the pictures New Zealand looks like a very beautiful country.

Re: HI GUYS & gals DAVE from NewZealand

Hi guys, breathing a bit of life into our sub-forum. Another K1W1 here, in Auckland.
I'm heavily involved in the car club environment, so most of my work is full on show work, concours d' elegance + other details when I have time.

adamkerrnz, not far away from you, so if you need help, sing out.
