Anyone tried new Flash Car Wash stuff?

[gill]

Has anyone tried the new Flash car wash stuff? We bought it to try last weekend, and it actually does work!!!:eek:

No need to chamois after washing - it does leave a nice finish. Bit shocked that it worked! We had been looking into the similar Zymol system, but it was double the price! Would recommend to all.:approve:





Edit - moved forum - oooh the powers gone to ma heid!!;)

Thanks for replying - plenty viewing, but I thought no-one was speaking to me:(

It is good for a quick wash and go...:D

I was too!! Do you apply it with a mop??:p

[gill]

Just clip the attachment thingy onto your hose - very simple!

We weren't sure either - you do just think of the stupid TV ads with 'Pete' and the mother-outlaw in them!:D:D

It is good though, although we've found that the starter pack did not provide the three washes that it was supposed to give - we were almost out after two!!:mad:

Happy washing everyone .... :approve:

OK OK - well if it works for you gill then that's cool :cool: out of interest - Costco are selling the kit alongwith extra refills for £17.

I've talked about this kit on other threads - remember guys...... the Miracle Gro Sprayer!! ;)

Anyway - the water filter is to soften the hard "down south" water so it slides off the car leaving less to dry. My opinion is this can be replaced by parking the car on a hill and/or taking the nozzle of the hose when rinsing. As for the soap - you still use a sponge (at least Karl Howman does in the Ad :I)so it's an expensive replacement for a bottle of car shampoo and a bucket in my opinion.

Will come into it's own in winter when it's too cold to use a sponge/mitt!!

JewelUltra Diamondbrite is much better. Consider it next time. Chathams Honda in Edinburgh are agents. We have JewelUltra on our MINI and love the just waxed feel every time we wash - without waxing!:D

Same goes for Diamondbrite - a dealer rip off i'm afraid - EBAY (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/DIAMONDBRITE-JEWELULTRA-with-full-after-care-kit_W0QQitemZ8001318670QQcategoryZ72201QQrdZ1QQcmd ZViewItem)

But if your happy with it then that's the main thing - but i'd think twice about handing my money over to the dealer for it!!

No warranty with that though:(. Besides, we get a huge discount at Chatham's:D.

I still use some of the Maguiars products though;); especially the bug and tar remover, the tyre wall blackening stuff, the acid based wheel cleaner, the microfibre cloth...... . . . . . :D:D
