RE: Detailed the 106 today.
Only use it for the fastglass. IMHO it's the best.
wouldn't dream of using any of their polishes/waxes tho they properly suck monkey cock

RE: Detailed the 106 today.
Looks mint ste especially bonnet front wing shots,as has already been said is awkward to show in pics reflection on silver cars and depends on weather ie light as to how cool it looks whereas on mine it tends to look better on darker days.
Glad ya liked the stuff though mate,if ya aint ordered any already will do ya a good deal on that stuff ya borrowed (if ya want)as ive just got too much stuff,got another 2full bottles for instance of that collinite 845 here though that were partly to mates lettin me down,is a bit crap to use but like the finish it leaves.

I followed your instructions of 1 coat metal polish then 2 coats wax polish soft and then 1 coat collinite. Took me about 6 hours all in to do them. I'll normally spend an entire saturday cleaning the car inside and out before a show
I had to LOL at the collinite instructions. It says "Do not use on electric pylon wires" or summat along those lines and I was like WTF?
I've not placed an order for anything just yet. How much was you looking at for whats left in the Einzetts and collinite?
Also a quick Q, how often should i use this? My normal routine is to get the car washed and dry and then do the three stage megs on it.

Thanks, it did seem to be getting quite a few people looking at it both at the Yorkshire show and MFN afterwards.

RE: Detailed the 106 today.
For anyone reading this that hasnt used einszett or heard of it i tend to use the metallic polishwax as a polish/cleanser(it does clean well)on a car thats done fairly regular will still see crap coming off on your applicator-sorta why i like it-i rate poorboys polish with carnauba however its rare if at all it brings any crap out of a fairly good finish to start with-metallic polishwax does.
Waxpolish soft is really glossy however gives little depth(hence using the collinite after and for better protection-leaves a nice glow though maybe not as noticeable on a light coloured car)
As a guide
Einszett metallic polishwax £9.99+(p+p)
Einszett waxpolish soft £14+(p+p) (1ltr tin so will last a while)
Collinite 845 £14 +(p+p)

Really up to you mate i dont stick to any set routine if i wash mine an leather it off an it looks ok tend not to bother doing anything lol,though the metallic polishwax i guess i`d only use something like 3 or 4times a yr,i`d use the waxpolish soft more as ya can get an amazing shine outta that if ya keep applying regular-ish then just top off with the collinite when ya sick of it an want a rest for a month or so
Collinite wont want doing that often really is just for topping off and as youve read has been used for insulating powerlines so wont want much on ya car that often.
£15 will do for the stuff ste £17 if ya want the mothers microfibre applicators aswell (would have to replace them as use em alot and as youve probably noticed do make a difference)
