I tried buying some stuff there that I don’t really need, it just kept coming up I hadn’t selected a shipping method so I give up.

She allowed you out for boys pints today so she’s allowed cleaning products. Lol

They don't ship to NI anymore, you need to get in contact with Autobrite Ireland on FB and Alan Lockington the rep for Ireland usually matches prices of their sale stuff which is handy

He doesn't need permission, she's doing taxi later in the GTR , she knows herself not even to look at their sale as she's enough stock to open her own shop

I give up because it kept saying I didn’t select a shipping option.

Anyone recommendations for the following,

Interior Trim Cleaner - One that removed dirt from the plastic sill trims - I have Auto Finesse interior cleaner and when applied its really good when it dries not so much.
Leather Cleaner/Protector - Again I have Auto Finesse leather cleaner and Megs leather cream and I`m not keen on them at all.

@Big Pimp I completely forgot to get some interior trim cleaner off you as yours works really well and smells absolutely outstanding.

Recently tried this and it's brilliant...does what it says on the tin - cleans and leaves a nice original finish at the same time...no need to put anything else on after, It's brilliant

I have always loved Gliptone products for leather cleaning - do you have a soft brush?

For trim I use an APC and the soft brush to agitate - if its stubborn, I would steam clean

 

[Tufty]

@Boydie I do have a soft brush and leather cleaning pads that I got from @Big Pimp I maybe could be expecting to much from the products.

@Laundrymike I must give that ago I am sure we sell it in work.

The results no before picture but it doesn’t look much different.

I should have gave you some Rawhide for those leather seats - would take the shininess and griminess out and leave them clean and fresh

Autobrite leather cleaner is good. It's not a conditioner though, but still gentle. Easy enough used aswell, spray on and wipe off with a microfiber.

Need a good foam based leather cleaner applied with a soft brush, wipe with the damp cloth and then a dry microfibre. May require a few goes to get that "gloss" look from the leather and restore the matt finish.

Used these and found them to be good.

Why do you think that a foamed product is better than non foamed? The reason I ask is that I's have thought a 'wet' product will work its way into crevices easier than a foamed product.

You don’t want to wet the leather too much, the foam won’t do this. Applying the product with a soft brush is the key to working it in. Pointless trying to work it in with a cloth, even if it’s a liquid it won’t be as good as using a brush with foam.

Not really rating products more I’m looking advice.

What does everyone recommend for a good cutting compound.

As we now stock Flex machines in work are they any good for entry level detailers/car cleaners.

Not a review, but does anyone know anywhere locally that stocks Bilt Hamber products?

Can anyone recommend a good tyre slick that’s available in 5lt+ sizes?

I’ve been using A-Kem’s for the past few years but it’s just jumped up considerably in price and was wondering if there is anything similar that is better value?

Sorry, I actually have 5lt of that here too, but it’s not near as good unfortunately.

A-Kem or Meguiars is all I’ve ever rated. It might have to do until I run out of it though and just suck it up for the A-Kem stuff.

I'm the same, only ever liked Meguires. We've a 1L Autobrite here too and I don't like it at all. Well it's probably meant to be satin finish that I've never been a fan of so that's maybe unfair.

Ross’ Ultraslick is really good, just a bit expensive when I use quite alot of it. You should give it a try if you like the Meguiars.

Valentines from procar? Not sure if he's atill doing them in 5ltr though. I've one in the she's that I use for her tyres on the shogun

I don't need to apply it often so Meguires lasts ages.

You might notice that I’ve only recently relisted it in 5lt sizing as the price has came down again thankfully.

It was costing me > £70 for 5 litres for the last year and a bit so I didnt even offer it in the larger size.

I’ve always kept pricing as competitive as I can but I’ve had price increase after price increase over the last 2 years and can no longer absorb some of them

Even the plastics as well as cardboard have had dramatic increases since I last purchased them
