@Big Pimp Do you still supply Armstrong Beattie in Bangor?

 

[Boydie]

@Big Pimp do you have a stockist list?

Be handy to nip to a shop to grab stuff in an emergency

Sorry Davy. Just back from Manchester this weekend.

Nothing in stock at all. Could be another 8 weeks before they arrive

@Big Pimp did you ever get the foam cannons in stock

 

[Big Pimp]

@Big Pimp did you ever get the foam cannons in stock

They’ve been on back order along with buckets and a few more goodies.

none of them have arrived yet due to prohibitively high shipping at the minute.
all sitting waiting on shipping pricing dropping

 

[Rover Repair]

The foam cannon I got off you mate with the detachable end for my karacher was one of the best cleaning investments I ever made.

I’m waiting stock of empty 20lt drums coming back in. They were ordered just over a week ago so hopefully early next week.

Gleam+ is the only one still available. I had a few labels incorrect but they should all be changed.

Love BH double wax also. Beautiful product

Any updates on the big drums? Wen't to place an order there and they're still out.

In saying that, happy to place an order if they're in soon and just wait on it

@Big Pimp are you out of the 20L drums? I am after 1 of Articulate and I see you have both 2L and 5L in stock.

Should be in middle of next week

Excellent. Can you give me a tag here when they are back in and I'll get an order in? Thanks

Would take me about 2 years to get through 20L of articulate

I bought one of the large drums of Articulate and the same of Ultrafoam about 4/5 years ago and still haven't finished either of them

X2 on Articulate. Think I still have 10l in it lol.

 

[gary1365]

My 2 litre bottle of articulate is 2 or 3 can't remember but it's from my very first order . There's still some left in the bottom I'll need a new bottle soon but talk about value for money

 

[Lyons]

I probably use too much tbh.

 

[svensktoppen]

I got a drum around the time of the start of this thread, lol. Still loads left Same with foam, that's even harder to use up

I probably use too much tbh.

1:50 is plenty. That's about 100ml in 5l of water. And that normally does about a car and a half on average without being mean. Basically saturate the dirt.

 

[hannakournikova]

50:1 looks lost in the spray bottle

 

[gary1365]

I’ve a 7 litre pump sprayer and can do the car probably 3 times with it maybe a 4th. I put about 120-130 mls in per 7 litres. Yea

 

[PDK]

I don’t seem to be able to get the same results as others with articulate.
I’ve used 40:1 applied, let it dwell and then rinsed with power washer - barley touched it.

Same results with adding foam over it

Try using it at 50:1 or 60:1.

I had this with my old karcher k2 the more powerful Lidl washer gets more dirt off and leaves it much cleaner. You really need to pay attention to power hose all of the car it's very easy to leave it patchy.

 

[Boydie]

I find with cars with ceramic coat or that have been treated react a lot better with articulate

For example, my car here - fresh off the road, sprayed with articulate, dwelled, power hosed off

40:1 is stronger than the 2 ratios you’ve suggested.

I’ve a Karcher 5.8 so plenty of poke it in
