Chemical Guys latest Wax

Andrew@DTUK · 06-29-2010, 06:24 PM

At long last Celeste Dettaglio arrived this morning at the unit so I set about stripping the existing wax/protection of the front end of the van (only this part has been machine polished since arriving a week saturday).....wash 2bm and used fine poly clay. Not the most ideal or easiest colour to try and show off this wax, but the results are blinding...

Washed again once the whole front end was completed with claying, then applied Chemical Guys EZ Creme...

Buffed off...

And now the Celeste...it smells heavenly (

) its a really sweet smell and not too overpowering

Applied very thinly (although personally after trying I think it needs to be done even more thinly) with an applicator

It was left for approximately 15 to 20 minutes to cure and then buffed off using a Supernatural Buffing Cloth

Some after shots.....now as most of you know its difficult with white at the best of times to get reflection shots and unfortunately this is no different. However what I would say is that the paint did have much more depth and when the van was taken outside you couldn't even look at the bonnet it was too bright - had to put my sunglasses on

Some quick beading shots...

I cant wait to get my hands on the rest of the Van, the TT and something other than white

If you would like to order a pot of this Heavenly wax then please drop me a pm as were currently offering 5% discount + free postage + 5 free microfibres.

rrp is £119.99 + carriage

our price is £113.99 inc carriage

I am looking forward to hearing some reviews about this wax, I know VXRmarc had huge input into this wax and he is a fussy bugger from what I have seen, so I imagine it is spot on.
Must say, I do like the CG's products.

Any samples?

Just my luck, wrong place, wrong time LOL

David's (chemical guys UK) is at the bottom of my street..I may go down and sweet talk him, perhaps a few magners will twist his arm LOL

For a few pics there I thought Celeste was the one with the polishing pad....

PS - the decimal point is in the wrong place in the RRP bit

added some of this to our TTRS

Decided that i wanted to remove the E-Zyme off the TTRS and replace it with a coat or 2 of Celeste Dettaglio, these shots are after one application with help from our youngest daughter Fleur

As the car had been garaged i went over with QD then clayed it with a Chemical Guys Poly Clay bar, followed by EZ-Creme

The results :car:
