SEALED WITH A BOTTLE OF SEALANT!
Oct 28th
If you enjoy a proper bit of car detailing then this new product from car care giant, Meguiar’s may well be of interest. M27 Pro Hybrid Ceramic Sealant is out now.
I think the poor old sealant often gets overlooked. We all use snowfoam, car shampoo, polish and wax, in my view the sealant stage is one that shouldn’t be overlooked, and I like to apply it to my cars at least twice a year.
It should be used after you’ve cleaned and decontaminated your car’s body and it acts as a great base layer for a coat or two of wax. More >

GAMECHANGING ABILITY
Oct 28th
Users of dehumidifiers often worry about how their machine will be emptied when the water tank is full and there is no one around to empty it. This is particularly the case when used in a garage, basement or second home, which can be left vacant or unattended for long periods.

The pump is a gamechanger for the user, requiring no expertise to set up and install, and removing the worry and bother of having to empty the water More >
WASABI – PHEW, IT’S HOT!
Oct 28th
I’ve been very impressed by the products of Wasabi Car Care (brilliant name!), part of the highly regarded Marells Detailing, a company based locally to TKC Towers in Buxted, East Sussex.
A petit and bijou range of products (about eight in all) includes their excellent Last Touch quick detailer, which has a lovely smell of berries. A clear liquid, it applies well (nice triggers help) and requires a very basic amount of spreading out one panel at a time and then it’s very simple to buff to a high shine.
A true ‘easy-on-easy-off’ detailer if ever there was one. The best part More >

A DAMPED BOXSTER
Oct 21st
An interesting piece for owners of Boxster-based body conversion kits, perhaps.
Although it was launched over twenty years ago the Porsche Boxster ‘S’ 3.2-litre 986 is still a great handling and highly desirable sports car. However, it’s quite easy to improve things even further with a GAZ Gold suspension kit.
The Gaz Gold units are both height and damper rate adjustable. Ride height is adjustable through 80mm of adjustment.
The height adjusters have a coarse acme form thread for ease of adjustment and the damper units are black zinc plated to ensure that they remain in good order even after considerable service.
