      Nah im joking, i only detail my motorcycles wheels.

    Basically the only thing i can say is this that when your going to sell the car, even privately most people will pay the red books value and i am sorry to say that unless the car has very very low km's then you will get a real good price, sure you will get more because the car was looked after and proof of what was done as far as cleaning it with paperwork to prove it, it will never get your cost back, but if you have a road driven car and want to look after it like Sandro does, which is to teach people who to do it and what would be the best products to use, which i would consider the best u tube channel for detailing cars and products reviews bar none. :)

    I noticed you used a ‘white’ trigger with TR.IX.
    I recently had a ‘black’ trigger leak on me and contacted CarPro in the UK and they informed me that although I was using a trigger off a reload bottle, they are coloured to show what liquids they are designed to be used for.
    Black for solvent based fluids (TR.IX) and white for water based (Reload).
    Using a white on a black liquid means the seals will be damaged and leakage/bad spray will occur as a result.
    Otherwise, nice advice in the video bro!

    How do you know when the dlux has cured and is ready for the next coat?

      If the coating feels a bit too grippy going on and wiping off, that’s usually a sign that you need to wait longer, but if the coating feels very slick and almost beads on top when you apply it and then just smears when you’re wiping it off, that’s a sign you’ve waited too long.
      Usually 2-3 hrs in warmer climates and 3-4 hrs on colder climates is about right.
