Heads up to anyone wanting this as out of stock in this country i ordered on friday 10th delivered today Tues 14th from German ebay, had to order 2 750ml bottles also got 2 tubes of the xtreme plastic restorer gel :D

Did you want/need the plastic gel?

At the right price I would be interested in taking one off you......

Well it ended up costing me £11 with the postage for the gel so pm me :)

You have a PM sir.

Have you got a link for the QD, PLEASE :bowdown::bowdown:

Some of the QD on Amazon, but ouch at the price (compared to normal UK stock).

Plenty on german eBay if you do a search, ended up costing me £32 for 2 bottles complete with nice red microfibre cloths in the pack

Yes, was wandering there earlier, even tried eBay france too, then Amazon.de

And, yes, I ordered mine before posting :D:D

Typical, just placed an order a couple of days ago. Will have to wait and see when I need something else.

Whilst you guys are on cleanyourcar.thingy, get some Serious Performance Carnauba QD, its the best one I,ve used yet and its pretty cheap

Look what Postie has just delivered from Germany :bowdown: http://i1007.photobucket.com/albums/...ps18950bf9.jpg

Ah you got the German one with the free cloth! Lets us know what you think.

Of course do read the label Ronnie, in case it affects chrome adversely......

















:getmecoat:

Dont worry its fine on anything, even plastic and glass (maybe not the windscreen though).

I was having a joke with Ronnie.

It's in German Ian :shrug::getmecoat::D:D

Ahh, well if you can't it read and so don't want to risk it, send it to me.....

My Trial
 

One side has my usual Carnauba wax; pretty good I think - the other has the Sonax on......................WOW :drool4::drool4::drool4::drool4:

Methinks the matching shampoo may need trying :D:D

Been using this QD for a few months now, I bought a 5 litre bottle from Germany. It's a little more difficult to remove than most QD's as it isn't quite as slick to the touch but the look is up there with best. It's aquaphobic properties are quite extraordinary, it's impossible to hose the car as the water just disappears on impact. Ensure that you buff immediately as it can streak if it dries, apply to a quarter/ half a panel at a time (depending on panel size).

What do you wash it with?????

Either Optimum No Rinse (ONR) or Duragloss shampoo depending on how dirty it is.

Wellllll,put some on the bonnet this morning,shines nice :drool4: Went for a drive over the moors around tea-time cos i was bored:( It rained.The water on the bonnet just blew straight off into the windscreen :oNow,just had a look outside as it's been raining again(that's unusual) nice beading on the roof(untreated) but the bonnet looks dry :cool: So,looking good for now :drool4: Rest of the car later this week,methinks :cool:

I've only done the bonnet too.

Heavy showers today - when I left work the most miniature beads I've ever seen, by the time I got to 25 ish they'd rolled into 5 or 6 big beads which then exploded onto the windscreen!!!

I've ordered the Sonax 'self drying' shampoo :drool4: to try; as I hate drying the car!!!

I dont hold these self drying or no rinse shampoos in much regard. To me they all need rinsing and drying, but the Sonax one is about as good as they get.

I wasnt that impressed the first time i used it, but i used it today and it seemed much better. It helps if the water is quite hot and you use at least as much as they say to, which for my bucket is about 3 cap fulls. The car is lovely and shiny now and still repelling water like mad. its a good match for the detailer.

I don't expect it to be 100% perfect, but if it is 90%, that'll be a great help, as I find drying the car the worst bit!!! :(:(

I gave in and bought the 5 litre bottle. Cant get enough of it, and I thought I better get more because the car is due for its annual full detail.

I bought some of this despite being a bit sceptical. Well, I think the shine speaks for itself...... Its now top of my list of stuff to use on the car and would recommend it to anyone. Not raied since I used it but no doubt it will later today (well, its a bank holiday, so it must be going to rain).

Looks great!

I couldnt wait for it to rain when i got mine, so i poured water over the bonnet from a watering can (with no head on it). Its addictive!

Looks like it's turned your wheels a funny colour. ;) :getmecoat:

I'm still working my way through the thread on DW before I decide whether to give it a go.

Its amasing that the thread is now up to 46 pages. That pretty rare on DW. No one seems to dislike it, the only comment being that its not very slick, but thats normal for nano based products.

I dont think im going to need anything else this year, its SO easy to use, a real boon for people like me who have Rheumatoid Arthritis, that cant do heavy detailing too often.

Did the whole car with it, and spent 5 minutes running the hose over it to watch the sheeting!!
'Little boy with new toy' springs to mind :D:D:D:D

Now torn between Xtreme Protect & Shine and Xtreme Carnauba Wax :confused::confused::confused:

Well, its been raining here and its now stopped and the car looks dry! My other half's Peugeot looks like you would expect (crappy and French) we with water beads on it..... :D

how are you all finding it now to wash your cars after this has been applyed, dose the shampo have enough time to lift the dirt up or dose it just run straght off?

Its fine as long as you have a nice frothy, suddy shampoo. Dirt doesnt stick very well anyway.

i may consider getting some of this

Outstanding product, thanks for the heads up ;)

Snagger.

The Sonax Exteme Plastic Gel renovator is fantastic to:drool4:

It is indeed, will be doing my car this afternoon if its not too hot.

The scuttle panel is the real test for any plastic/rubber gel, Christian, and after a week mine looks brand new:D

Yes i have used it before, it does work a treat. I did all black parts, including the door and window seals, and the car looks really nice with every detail done. I helps that the heat of the day made the product less thick, it spread easier and seemed to soak in more.

I just wish someone in Australia would become a sonax distributor. I have to get mine from the U.K or Germany. Postage cost is a bit off putting but the product is worth it.

Edit:
Ack! Found one. Could have saved a small fortune in the past. Glad I found it though. They need to get their act together re search engine promotion. Had to trawl to find them.

I've finally got some sonax qd. I can't wait for it to arrive and give it a go :D:D:D

My quick detailer will be arriving today and its pouring down so I won't be able to get it on yet :(

Wait until it rains AFTER you have used it :D The rain falls off the car. Drive down the road and its all gone......... I love it.

I can't wait :D:D:D

I've quickly put a coat on whilst there was a brake in the rain and now it's started again... I'm well impressed. :D
