Looks fab, I to have made good use of Halfords bogof on Autoglym products but have been converted to their wax as opposed to super resin polish....

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thought I'd post a few pics after my recent detail. Autoglymn products including Paint Renovator, Super Resin Polish, Wheel Seal, Tyre Shine, Bumper Care and Fast Glass

POST 2Original post

Hi Jon, Looks fab, I to have made good use of Halfords bogof on Autoglym products but have been converted to their wax as opposed to super resin polish.... I find it lasts longer between washes hence less applications! Have you seen my post re Zunsport grilles? atb Paul

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Kasspa - I do rate the Wax, my mate uses it on his M3 and it looks great - need to buy some! I did see your post, I like them, they blend well with your black exterior. Due to the problem of leaves in the air itakes, my vehicle had all affected components changed less than 2 years ago at a cost of £2,896 by Porsche Centre Exeter. Fortunately for me this was financed by a previous owner. Spyderman - Cheers! I detailed it because I was selling up due to a new car which has subsequently fell through - have to admit I don't know why I wanted to get rid of it!!!!

POST 5Original post

Looks great! I've recently started using the Auto Glym Aqua Wax spray on the car after every wash too - it's great stuff! It was around £12 for a bottle and it came with two lovely micro fibre cloths too. Keeps the car looking lovely between 'proper' waxing sessions![ ]

POST 6Original post

Can anyone recommend the best product for getting black plastics (exterior) back to their best? My front grilles have some white spotting on them probably residue from a spray if some kind used by the previous owner. It's really bugging me but don't want to make them worse. Would Meguirs Trim Detailer do the trick?

POST 7Original post

For black plastic smooth peanut butter works really well at getting rid of polish and other contaminants (seriously!) Once you've got all the spotting off then 303 Aerospace Protectant leaves a lasting blackness.

POST 8Original post

Wow, I wasn't expecting that but I'll try anything once! Thanks for the tip!

POST 9Original post

Great job. I am reminded again what a great looking car the 4S is. I've used the Zymol Tyre dressing on black plastic before- works v well, and doesn't leave a sticky gloop behind.
