Will need to place an order again as I am out of articulate.
I know someone used laser before on house work etc, but has anybody used laser on the car, and if so, how did you use it? Like tarminator?

I used it around wheels, arch and wing etc to remove grease that came from the cv boot the seemed to explode and send grease everywhere lol.
Best degreaser I've used.

Tarminator is a solvent, use with care.
Lazer is a solvent free degreaser. Totally safe, and absolutely brilliant for anything from oily/greasy car and bike parts to cleaning the kitchen and washing up dishes, cleaning spectacles, etc. Just spray on and rinse off, maybe a little light brush work if it is really ingrained, job done.
Don't use it directly on the car myself, the Articulate does the job there. Lazer would not damage the paint or anything, but it will remove anything "fatty", including most waxes.
Articulate is friendlier to waxes and stuff, but still deals with all road grime - including tar, rubber, fuel, oil streaks, bugs, etc.
Just depends what you were after really.
P.S.
Lazer is also brilliant for cleaning blood and gore, but that is a different topic

Just setting up a Shopify site at the minute. Hopefully in the next few days, now that I realised just how easy they are to set up
Lazer is a degreaser, so wouldn't be wax safe. Brilliant for engine bays or like @weeloaney discusses in his experience.
Let me know what you're after and I can leave it for you

Couldn't describe it any better myself, thanks!

Sounds good, will have a look and see what I need and fire in an order tomorrow.
Will try it to find out if laser works but is anything you'd recommend for carbon deposits and tar like substance of diesel and carbon @Big Pimp ??
Ultra brite might work too?
Injector(s) are leaking in the parents diesel Mercedes and have made a mess, need to try and clean around them and remove them
I hate cars just one problem after another lol.

Used Articulate, followed by ultra foam then ultra gloss for the 1st time, impressed for a touch less wash!
No before pic but it was filthy...
