Wash day for the XR8 (again), which was to be rotated back under cover and swapping places with the Mustang. I'm slowly getting more and more comfortable using AMMO Hydrate, which seems to be playing very well with Wolfgang DGPS. AMMO Hydrate Paint Moisturizer – AMMONYC AU AMMO Hydrate...

I have two wash processes, both use a single bucket. (Important to note, I have one bucket for wheels, so you could say that I do use the two-bucket method?) Both of these methods are AFTER cleaning the wheels. Garage Queens / Mild dust & road film - 1. Thoroughly rinse the whole car 2. Foam...

This is where I was going with that question. Going back a number of years, I went and bought several buckets with matching grit guards because I was led to believe that if you aren't using the two-bucket method, you are not washing safely. I went on to start using the 2BM, because that's what...

Mine were from Prime Finish, called the Buckanizer, which were the OG for this idea - Buy Detailing Outlaws Products Online | Prime Finish Car Care Don't buy them though, you can get the knockoffs for a third of the price - Economax Bucket Organiser Clear – Waxit Car Care MAXSHINE Detailing...

Ok guys, this time it's me who has a question to ask. For those who use a pressure washer and foam cannon when cleaning your car, do you use the 2-bucket method? As in, using one bucket with soap and water, and one with only water. Dunk the mitt into the wash solution, clean a section, then...

I can't believe I'm going to defend Ford here, but it's a similar story with other brands as well. My old boss ordered a Mazda CX-5 and got no information or contact from the dealer or Mazda during the several months he waited for the vehicle. The only time anyone contacted him was when it...

Koch Chemie All-round Quick Shine, Quick & Shine, Quick Finish and Finish Spray Exterior Koch Chemie offers four different quick detailers in their current lineup, of which it’s hard to know what the difference between them is. From the product descriptions, they all sound identical, but...

In the box seat today, the mighty XR8! A question I've been asked a few times over the years, how do I clean the intricate grills on a modern vehicle? Front end designs have only gotten more and more complex over the years, to the point where they can be a nightmare to clean properly. I'd say...

Koch Chemie Insect & Dirt Remover Koch Chemie Insect & Dirt Remover is a ready-to-use product for the safe and effective removal of bugs and baked on road film. Designed to penetrate and break down contamination, it can used on all exterior surfaces. With a pH of about 10.5, it's certainly got...

Because of the dry and windy conditions this summer, it doesn't take long for the cars to be covered in film of dust. Throw a light shower into the mix, which happed to the Ranger while I was cleaning the Mustang last week, well the car was looking filthy. Today, I decided on an Ethos theme...

I get it, I actually wish I'd waxed the S650 instead of coating it. The only area I'd insist on coating would be the wheels, it makes cleaning so much quicker and easier.

For this post, I'm covering two alkaline-leaning soaps within the Koch Chemie lineup. One is simply stunning, one is somewhat underwhelming. Koch Chemie Auto Shampoo AS I tried Auto Shampoo a few years ago when the brilliant GSF had been out of stock for several months. My thinking was, if...

Something like that. It also means I have some extra room in the cabinets. :wink:

More product testing today, mainly to compare and verify. Test Subject - The Wildtrak Like last time, I decided to use Koch Chemie Active Foam, again used to clean the wheels and tyres. The ADS Ghost is doing very well on these tyres, they stay cleaner and are easier to clean, the Active Foam...

The funny thing is, ANCAP don't test the safety of a 7-seat SUV's third row seats, but they do test a two-door sports car rear seats.

Now that we no longer make cars, ANCAP is redundant. And yet, its still being funded. This is the thing, car companies design cars to pass the tests. S550 Mustang excelled in the NHTSA tests because that's what Ford designed it to do. A truly global vehicle would have been designed to pass ALL...

I remember when that ANCAP 2-star rating blew up in the media because after (only) a years wait, my car arrived at the dealer that same week. At the time, the Mustang was in very high demand, every car that came into the country was already sold, no floor stock. Very different to now where...

From the man who condemned the Mustang back when it arrived in 2015/2016, something along the lines of "I'll never drive another Mustang.................."

Thanks. For a moment there I thought I had screwed up that post, but realized you had abbreviated it. A couple of weeks ago I had a troll tell me I wasn't a good writer, all because he read something I wrote the wrong way. He then put 1+1 together and got 11 instead of 2, then embarked on...
