Same here, my first encounter with car detailing. A rag, a car and some super resin polish. It's one of those things you immediately recognize by the smell alone.... nice...

Interesting video mate. I’ve been using super resin for the past 20+ years, having entered numerous cars in shows. What’s interesting is that super resin is very versatile. For example, I’ve removed light scratches permanently (you mention it’s only temporary, but with the right tool it can be permanent as the product can be manipulated) The technique for this is to actually use something a bit better than an applicator pad, as you cannot ‘work’ the product properly. I tend to use very soft flannel cloths. I can even use a little water that can basically grade the scratch out. To be honest, I’m probably the last of a dying breed of detailers. I don’t use machines, everything is done by hand, but every car is always finished, knowing that I haven’t eaten into the laquer. 100% autoglym super resin is my go to in my tool kit 😀👌🏾

I’m no expert detailer, but for me, Autoglym and Meguirs are no-nonsense, decent quality products that do exactly what they say on the tin. Even though I occasionally try other brands, I always end up going back to Autoglym and Meguirs.

Refreshing to see someone talk positively about this product and Autoglym generally. The amount of snobbery around SRP that I've seen from detailers really rubs me up the wrong way!

Completely agree, I ride classic bikes which have large areas of polished alloy, I used to use only metal polish on the alloy (Solvol Autosol) This was fine, but it quickly oxidized and dulled down. One day I had a brainwave and decided to use the same Autoglym Super Resin polish that I already used on the paintwork, but on the alloy too, immediately after using the metal polish.. This was a revelation !.. I was amazed at the amount of black metal polish residue it removed and it left a much longer lasting shine than just using the metal polish did. I use it on pretty much everything on my classic bikes now, including the frame, chrome wheels and exhausts.. Autoglym Super Resin polish really is fantastic stuff and it's the only polish I've used for many years now

Excellent video I'll change the way I polish my car in future well done mate 👍

I've been using autoglym for 40 years and remember when the only place I coukd get it from was the national motorcycle museum. It's easy to use and even in sunlight good on chrome as well. I've tried other polishes but there difficult to remove if left on.

I find what works better for me, and solves all the issues from SRP, is Megs Wash Plus+, as an abrasive shampoo then a decent wax to top it off. For me its way easier to control on hot days, and this gives a lasting shine, even after the wax has popped its clogs :)

its very short term but ive always believed its better to use ceramic spray after every clean to keep it topped up

I've been using Auto Glaze for years. I think it's called Glare Professional Polish, now. It's not actually a regular polish. It has tiny beads of glass in it, so it needs to be buffed at just the right point of drying, or it will scratch the paint, so it has to be applied in small areas at a time.-Put it on, wait a bit for it to nearly dry, buff it, then do the next area. It dries hard and ultra-shiney like glass. If you've seen those highly reflective, wet-look, paint jobs on high end cars, that's the finish Glare gives. Bird droppings and tree sap don't stick to it. Usually I just need a tissue or maybe a bit of water too, and anything on the paint just falls off. I will be buying some Autoglym Super Resin Polish to put on as a top coat, though. Just for that added protection. I mostly use Autoglym's products. All their products I've tried work exactly as they say they well (despite my initial scepticism).

What do you use to clean the applicator pads please?

I've been into detailing for about 15 years or so. Have to say, I've never really been all that bothered about SRP. I've had more than 1 bottle over the years and can't say ive ever used it, stood back and thought "that looks better" In terms of AIO products, I'm not a big fan, but i preferred Zaino over this. I'll always, always prefer a real, pure polish to sort the paint out and and a separate coating to keep it that way.

Would you always polish the whole car or could you do a couple of small areas?

Hello you can use autoglym super resin polish but sadly it may not get you perfect results. ideally you need to use a compound.

I have used AutoGlym SRP for a long time, easy to use with minimum effort and it gives long lasting results.. I also use it on PVC window frames about once a year and it keeps them white and the shiny surface shrugs off bird and spider poo, as well as stains from leaves etc... Too much snobbery about care care, apparently if you do not spend half your life using clay bars and various waxes you are not keeping your car clean...and are a hopeless case. I also use SRP about once a month on plastic headlight covers which helps with UV damage and keeps the bugs splats from sticking. I would argue that the shine from SRP is pretty permanent as I only clean our cars about once a year and they always look shiny - and every time it rains it brings back the shine. Good for alloy wheels as well.

Can you use this on powder coat

No need to do that. It would not be necessary. Just top up regularly with wax or ceramic spray in-between using this 👌

Im starting my own valet/detailing service next year and i'm going to incorperate this into my formula's , for a "little" extra , they can choose this option in combination with a ceramic spray or paste wax to make it last as long as possible. Its fast & easy to apply and gives amazing results. Customer is going to be happy with the result but ofc informing him/her that this is not going to be a permanent option. but i think for the price difference in machinal polishing and applying this product, some people are gonna tend more to the SRP and to pay that "little" extra instead of the higher budget of machinal polishing... (i think).. :)

Exactly. Always give the customer what they want. If the car looks too good for too long they won't call you back. So in theory srp is a real money maker

What about using this is a finish polish, as opposed to the likes of Koch Chemie M3 (which is use now) with a machine polisher and soft finishing pad, IPA wipe down and Ceramic coat on top? Would the ceramic still stick properly, would it provide more gloss than normal finish polishes?

Ceramic sealants yes but coatings no I wouldn't. You really want it to bond to a perfectly prepped paintwork

I think durability is a difficult one, a few products like the new turtle wax ceramic paste wax are very durable in terms of detergent resistance but don't last that long in real world conditions. SRP's protection is not that resistant to chemicals but in my experience it lasts well against the elements, still beads after a few months on a car that's kept outside. Bodywork shampoo conditioner is designed to not strip it, so they make a good combination.

I’m guessing you would suggest waxing or spray sealing directly over the SRP, not to panel wipe it off first?

I first used this 35 years ago om my dad's xr3i , and to be honest I've only just stopped using it..I stopped using it because I had a professional ceramic coating , costing £400 , and whilst it looks amazing, 9 months later I can see light scratches and swirls again.
