Long time lurker, placed an order. Looking forward to lazy winter car washing with articulate, cleanse, ultra foam, ultra gloss and hydra clean the big car won't know what's hit itπŸ˜€
Think I have summer covered with trim, gleam and hybrid. PayPal credit is great until you have to pay it πŸ˜‚

Ok, I'm impressed, shifted 3-4weeks of salt no bother. I could have left it after rinsing the snowfoam off but I went on gleamed and ultra glossed. Hydro'd the front window and hybrid'd the bonnet but too cold to do the rest.
Anyway here is the result πŸ˜€
Cheers Big Pimp, that's quare gear your dealing 🀣

Always worth it to Gleam and Gloss I think. There's always stubborn stuff left otherwise once it dries. Specially this time of year and when it's been a while.

Great result there :cool:

Oops. Only the 5L bottles are sold out. The smaller bottles still available. Would've preferred the bigger one (better value) but a small one is more than sufficient :grinning:

Managed to nab some 5l bottles, maybe stick them on ebay with a 100% markup :joy:

The smaller ones are really handy though with the built in dose-o-meter thing. Same as Solapower. Such a shame they are not refillable.

loads more coming in before Friday

The thing about CitraClean is thats its a very concentrated product - not like some of the other ones out there.

a 25ml dose into a 750ml bottle will give an in use ratio of 30:1 which is more than sufficient for all cleaning.
That means that in a 1.2l self dose bottle you will have 48 x trigger sprayers full of useable product. Apart from the dirtiest of arches I haven't found any need to make it stronger to be effective.

it also means that a 5lt container will make you 200 x spray bottles, which is quite a bit of cleaning!

What do you do with your application cloths, drying cloths, buffing cloths etc after use? Do you wash them or keep them with the particular product to reuse?

I just have loads of cloths and throw them in the washing machine after every use. It's fine for all the fluid based products.

Anything that's been used for waxing or leather conditioner or similar "greasy" stuff is best to keep separate. You don't want to use them for polishing or windows even after a wash.

Just don't leave one in with actual laundry if it's been used with hybrid. Unless you want your underwear to smell like hybrid. Which in fairness ain't a bad smell for underwear :joy: :cool:
