Don't know if this ever happened to you or if you have a better solution: i did a long summer motorway bug-splattering drive. Car was horrific. On a hot summer day, away from home, i pre-soaked the car at a local jet wash to cool the body and add wetness. Then with a pump sprayer i doused the car with BH auto foam at 5% PIR. Then 2 minutes dwell time and jet wash off. Dried the car. Gleaming job 😊

Hi Heather, Detailing on gravel does have its downsides, have you tried putting the cars on small drive-up ramps first? Particularly cleaning the alloys and dressing the tyres this helps a lot for me And stops the gravel flirting up when pressure washing the lowers quarters and wheels. They’re around £40 and raise the car 10cm - allowing the dressing applicator to reach all around the tyre

Yeah it can be a bit of a pain! I normally just roll the car forwards/ backwards slightly to get to the bits I couldn't reach. That's a good idea though!

good morning Heather always enjoy your videos, I like to ask you about using iron fallout remover, I a bit worried about using it on paint work, does this product remove wax protection? and also once applied, and then wash of would you recommend to re wash the car again, hope you can help.
@AutoCareHQ
2 жыл бұрын
Thanks Nigel :) If the protection is starting to degrade then the iron fallout remover might push it over the edge but it doesn't have a huge impact on fresh protection. It's probably best to try and remove that protection first with a wax-stripping shampoo to get the best out of the iron fallout remover though. I usually give the car a quick once over with a wash mitt and shampoo after any tar/ iron fallout remover products just to make sure there's no residue
Another great clean heather. Is IPA the same as panel wipe ? I've not cleaned my paint work with either prior to waxing. Might give it a go.
@AutoCareHQ
2 жыл бұрын
Thank you! The GT panel wipe has a bit more to it than just IPA so it's better at prepping the surface. I really like using either this one or Bilt Hamber's Cleanser Fluid as well before applying a wax/ sealant. Can't go wrong with either!
Top job on a gorgeous car - could you see yourself in one ?

Thanks for sharing another video. I've got the larger Blo GT drier as I have to wash a BMW 7 Series and the longer hose on the bigger unit means I can get all the way around the car without moving it. With plenty of protection on the car it doesn't seem to be much longer than a drying towel, but it saves quite a bit of effort. Would be interested in your views on more Gyeon products as I've moved across to that brand from Autoglym and would be nice to compare against other products on the market. Good value/performance?
@AutoCareHQ
2 жыл бұрын
Thanks for watching Simon! Yeah that longer hose on the GT is a very good idea. The 5 meter one on my RS is enough but it'd definitely be a bit more convenient if it was a bit longer. I'll definitely pick up some more Gyeon products at some point. I've only ever tried wetcoat and the tyre cleaner and both work really well. I'd probably say that Autoglanz Rebound is still my favourite tyre cleaner though over Gyeon's
