Sadly, TRC have announced they are discontinuing the Platinum Pluffle. Stock up while you can.

Please please please don't pay for the dealer to do this. Some do this just fine, but most don't. At the end of the day, offering exterior and interior protection products and packages is about generating more income for the dealer, achieved by extremely high markups. While exterior ceramic...

Speaking from experience, don't waste your money and time applying this product. I used the Autoglym version of this product and it was basically useless, it didn't even make the water bead. These might come in an aerosol for "easy" application, but you still have to buff them, which will be...

We have! When I started detailing in the early 2000's, I thought I had hit the jackpot when I was given a Meguiar's "Soft Buff" Synthetic Chamois. I ended up with a few of them, which I would wash out religiously after to use to keep them clean. I used this for longer than I care to admit to...

Reset is extremely concentrated, Carpro suggest up to a 500:1 dilution is achievable. Pardon my conversion here, I function on milliliters and liters. 1oz = 30ml 5 gal = 19 liters In a foam cannon, Reset will foam down to 60 - 80ml in 940 - 920ml of water, but I usually do about 100ml to...

Why Dawn is NOT a good idea! Using dishwashing detergent to "strip" or remove wax has been a pet hate of mine for a long time. Those that do use it, usually do so along the lines of "I don't need to buy some fancy soap to strip wax when I can just use some cheap dish washing detergent". This...

WASH AND WAX SERIES I’ve never really been a fan of these soap. In my earlier years, a product like this would have been quite useful in topping up my Mothers California Gold Carnauba Wax I was using at the time. But, in recent times, more durable forms of protection have, in theory, made...

I'd use a glass cleaner or something like ONR at 256:1. From what I have seen, I'm eagerly awaiting the arrival of Bilt Hamber Trace-less, which is like a next level glass cleaner that WILL NOT STREAK, at all! Bilt Hamber Trace-Less Super Wetting Glass Cleaner - Detailing Shed P&S True Vue...

Reset and Lift would be a great combo. I like Reload, but don't rule out Armour Detail Supply Amplify (more of a competitor to Carpro EliXir and can be used more often) or Armour Detail Supply Ceramic Spray Sealant (Reload competitor), both are easier to use than EliXir and Reload. AMPLIFY -...

The below is a screenshot from one of the leading detail suppliers in Australia. For a company of that caliber to be using the term "chamois", the only explanation I can arrive at is they are simply using that word to capture those who have yet to discover modern methods of drying your car...

Australian Media drives have coming through now - While he might be a bit dry, there is no ego on show here. I love his videos, plenty of time just showing what the car sounds like without mindless drivel.

Be VERY careful going that route, the ATAK is waaaaaay nosier than you will expect. Even the Touring will land you on the wrong side of the law. I have the Touring and is great because you can fly under the radar when needed, or raise hell when the mood takes you there. The Atak is just always...

Patience my good man, patience 😉

Oh boy, don't get me started on that.

The Concept - During the 25 years I've been cleaning cars, I've tried more soaps than I should probably admit to. Over that time, I've found a number of soaps that have surprised and delighted. Naturally, I've also discovering plenty of duds along the way. In no way am I suggesting that this...

Race Red is THE Mustang color!

Keep in mind if you decided to start using a blower, you may still need a towel to finish off, hence the inclusion of a smaller "drying aid towel". I have a Big Boi BlowR Pro with the twin motors. Because of the narrowed outlet, it's extremely effective at "driving" the water off the car...

Microfiber 101 with DFB One of the biggest advancements in the detailing world over the last 10 to 15 years has been the massive increase in the towels we use to clean our cars. With so many microfiber towels on the market from a variety of different brands, it can be hard to know what to buy...

I decided that I would like one of these as well. But the shipping kills that idea. For those interested, shipping on a $50 decal will set you back at least $135.00! :facepalm:

Just keep in mind that there are multiple ways power figures are calculated, including SAE, DIN or ECE. From memory, DIN numbers tend to be more conservative as they include the fitment of standard exhaust, charging and cooling systems. Ford Australia uses DIN. These are some qoutes after some...
