    Flex/PC

    I'm in the process of taking the plunge and buying a PC but before ordering I have come across the Flex products as per link attached; http://www.flex-tools.com/en/index.htm They have a UK retailer but there are various polishers offered and I'm not sure which is comparable with the...

    Damaged/stained trim

    I've checked other threads but can't find anything specific for this. I have 2 problems with the trim as follows. 1. Plastic trim on bumpers and sides of car has polish/wax stains on it - combination of bodyshop applying a hand glaze poorly and me pre-Autopia when I knew everything...

    best product for interior plactics?

    Just a quick one here. I've got a can of Simoniz foaming cleaner for use on the dashboard etc but it's nearly empty (has lasted me 3 years!) and no-one stocks any more in the UK. It's great stuff as it leaves no residue and a totally factory finish (i.e. satin with no shine - perfect) Any...

    EX cure time?

    OK, so I'm nearly there and have (I think) everything I need so I'm just praying that it stays dry this weekend. I've ordered a Megs cordless buffer - not as good as a PC but will at least cut down on application time. I also have the following. 3M clay #9 DACP P21S EX My plan is...

    Thank You

    Just wanted to say a huge thank you to everyone who gave me advice here. Spent 8 hours on Saturday but digital camera broke so had to resort to good ole 35mm - but you get a CD rom when they develop pics so will post ASAP. Real impressed with #9 - shifted most of the swirls on the side panels...

    Sealant

    I've previously posted threads regarding swirl removal and wash regime, but I'm worried that I'm wasting a lot of time & effort if I don't use a sealant. I plan to clay, #9 then P21S but should I glaze or seal between the #9 & P21S and my questions are; 1. Is this the right place to seal...

    Calling all UK Autopians

    I need some feedback from all UK car nuts (whether Autopians or not so please ask friends etc.) Although we can get a lot of good products over here, I think we are missing a single supplier who can stock everything from MF's to wax, dry towels to clay, wheel cleaner to....you get the...

    clay treatment

    I have some clay which I bought from Griots about 2 years ago. The third which I didn't use as been sealed in its container since then. My quetions are simple. 1. Can I still use it safely? It is still soft to touch 2. Can I use Megs Quik Wax as a lubricant? 3. Is it best to do a 2nd...

    Attention all UK enthusiasts!

    I've been giving this idea some thought for a while now and need some serious feedback from car nuts in the UK. There are a number of companies already importing bits & pieces but I plan to take this to another level, by bringing in larger supplies of many of the products Autopia already sell...

    new UK user seeking advice

    Hi everyone. I have a Renault Laguna in non metallic red which suffers really badly from swirls all over body. I've used Meguiars UK range, Griot's Garage waxes and various other products with little success. The car was new September 2002 and is always hand washed. The swirls are uniform...
