Where do you purchase the b &h dsw stuff from?BjNtheBear wrote: ↑Mon Jul 12, 2021 11:38 am Thought I'd take advantage of the cooler weather yesterday and waxed the car using Simonize....boy what a mistake, this stuff grabs your cloth off you and slaps you across the chops, took me hours, never again, while the water repellency is great the tins heading for the bin.
Ordering some B&H DSW as seen auto express awards, looks much better for just a few pounds more.

Amazon Mike, they're doing it for £17 Inc delivery, I know it retails around £15 but most companies charge extra for delivery under a certain amount, unless some peeps can update us.

Check if Bilt Hamber are offering free delivery? Buying direct has saved me money in the past…
DSW is a fantastic product

So, how many buckets do you all use?
I use 2-3 depending on the amount of dirt. If you know, you know....
I quite like Red7 by AutoSmart, Can spray liberally everywhere, and their Snow foam. Goes on like shaving foam, clings well and lifts must crud. Pic below after letting it sit for a few minutes.
I still need to fully Clay, polish & Wax my car. Not had the weather/time to do it since getting it!

White ST with Performance pack.
I’m a 3 bucket wash.
One for the wheels with shampoo - I rinse my brushes and mitts before dipping them back into the bucket.
Two buckets for the body work. One rinse and one with shampoo. Both with grit guards and wash boards. Used with several dedicated mitts.
The cleaner the rinse water is at the end is a sign of a good pre wash.

nOt sure of AutoGlym's (I don't sually like their products), but for what it's worth the AUTOFINESSE version (citrus power) don't strip wax...but it does nothing. The ££ I've spent on detailing products over the years, and off the top of my head I can't think if anything as rubbish as AutoFinesse Citrus power.
