Johnnyopolis Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 As I had the windows tinted today and they got all sorts of liqiuds down the side of it I thought I would have a mini detailing session and put some zymol on it. Once washed using the 2 bucket method with grit gaurds I used my water filter on it and went and had a cup of tea! When I came back it was nigh on dry so used a waffle weave microfibre to clear the last of the water up. I then used Zymol HD Cleanse first and followed this with Zymol Concours (This smells lovely) After it was buffed off I put some Poorboys bold n bright on the tyres and finally polished the glass outside with Einszett Glass Polish. Only a few pics as I was not intending posting and it was getting dark! Didnt come out too bad huh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cagey Posted August 2, 2006 Report Share Posted August 2, 2006 Ever thought about getting involved in car care for a living? That dark blue looks fantastic. Had a test drive in one that colour before we decided on Steel Grey. It was covered in sh1t at the time, so didn't realise how good it can look. Now if it had been clean.......

Sponge Posted August 2, 2006 Report Share Posted August 2, 2006 Very nice. But you lose points for the number plate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewNiceMrMe Posted August 2, 2006 Report Share Posted August 2, 2006 Ah well, I tried with the free offer... Anyway, Johnnyopolis, I've just put through an order for a new tub of Pinnacle Souveran and 2 x sponge applicators (good to see the TSN code still works so I guess I shouldn't moan too much!). If you want to throw in any freebie sealant whilst you're at it, I have no objection. I had a look at the Zymol Titanium Glaze whilst I was on your site and noted that it says it was specifically developed for Vans & Trucks! Now I know a few things have been said about the Golf GTi but isn't that stretching it a bit far? Presumably it's because you wanted the longer lasting qualities of it? I considered it for a while but then decided to stick with what I know (being an old 'stick in the mud' type of guy!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] But I used "Concours" Titanium is designed for the SUV/4x4 Market as its meant to be really durable... Carbon is designed to work with dark coloured cars as well as reds etc, a bit like Pinnacle Souveran. Concours is designed for Shows etc, hence why I used it... All of these products I would use with HD Cleanse first. Thanks for the order Free sealants!! I wish I could Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paddy_Driver Posted August 4, 2006 Report Share Posted August 4, 2006 Ah, but Johnny you get the "not for resale" freebie samples. I thought Souveran was expensive until I saw the Zymol stuff... and there is not just one expensive one, there is about 10! What do we do...

McGee Posted August 10, 2006 Report Share Posted August 10, 2006 That looks superb even in the dark. Glad to see you promoting the correct process for Zymol application in the use of HD Cleanse as I think a lot of people forget this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
