That’s brilliant to know as results can vary depending on location with washing frequencies and quality of water etc so thanks for the info 👍👍

@@GMDetails with pleasure. Also BSD can be a drying aid or stand alone application. But parla needs dry surface i noticed, does not keep itself if u apply it as a drying aid. :)

@@NoFix I’ve just been experimenting with some other ceramic sealants as wet applications, something they’re not designed for but some can and some can’t , things like this just interest me maybe a little too much 😅

@@GMDetails haha i found my twin then. I like to experiment also. Even combining different products. 2 weeks ago i combined parla and BSD in a bottle and it gave clotts 🙈. Just to say, i experiment also. For now fusso coat+bsd on every wash got my girlfriends car almost a good 10 months protection before the lower doors started to get hit. Yesterday i applied fusso coat on mine and im gonna do a test with parla after every wash now. 🤓 Every few weeks i order a few new products which i think is good and try them. Last one was Bilt Hamber speed wax. Not bad but i found it annoying that the wax “sweats”. Also Soft 99 the glaco for on the mirrors does an amazing job for my rear view camera which is exposed. On the mirrors it gives a slight smoky tint, but for the camera its perfect. Yesterday tried also the compound of soft 99 before fusso and it was superbe also. Even did the windows with it and i was pleasently surprised.

@@NoFix I love this!!, your passion and enthusiasm is absolutely brilliant !!!! Thanks for sharing your knowledge I never knew speed wax sweats, that would be quite annoying I’ll remember if it happens to me you said it first 👌

Glad you liked it

Nice to know it’s not just me 😅

I’ll need to check my bottle as I don’t remember it saying it’s 25ml to 200ml dilution 🤔 25ml in the 500ml solution is 19-1 dilution and stronger than Autoglanz recommends to start at 25-1 but due to the level of dirt but it keeps the balance between the two products exactly the same (or as best as I could) Thanks for watching 👌

@@GMDetails Thanks for the Reply apprenticed, I might of got it wrong could be 20ml to 200ml water, but in testing this stuff seems impressive 👍

@@tripsingh3642 it is very good don’t get me wrong , it’s so versatile but dilutions are quite confusing on the website I feel 👍

Thank you 🙏👍

Thanks for watching 👍

Thank you for subscribing!!, glad you liked the video 😃

@@GMDetails You’re welcome!! Gone through some of your other reviews, especially the Karcher pressure washer ones. I’ve got an ‘old’ K5 (2012) which is still serving me well, but it’s good to see how the newer ones perform especially from professional detailers like yourself. I fully agreee on the standard hoses!! They’re TERRIBLE!! 🤦🏾‍♂️. Karcher really need to stop using those plastic crappy things and use better quality rubber ones as you’ve suggested. Top channel 👍🏾👍🏾

@@vibez_kru01 thanks again!! 🙏

It happens but twice a year ☀️🤣

Thanks for watching 👍

The Americanists use a bug remover on tar too!! 🤣

Nah it was a wee experiment to see what it would be like, I’ve just bought guf myself so I’ll make a video comparing dash serum v guf v tyre serum 😅

Could have been warmer panels with the darker colour causing issues , white doesn’t heat up as much, it’s a possibility anyway 👍

I’m insulted 🥴😅 my face is on the thumbnail of my latest video 🤣

Power wise yes it has exactly all the same performance and quality of parts as the full size K5 has, just in a smaller case!, it’s absolutely night and day from a K2 and you’ll be blown away by its performance if you go for one , I moved up from a K4 and was impressed so going K2 to K5 is going to knock your socks off 👌

I believe so, as long as you get the ones I’ve put in the links you won’t have any problems

Oh?, I checked that out and you’re right 😱 Well at least the info was correct at the time of recording, thanks for the heads up 👌

Thank you mate 👍

Thanks mate 😎

Thanks Lee!, that’s a great wax actually mate , my brother got near enough 12 months longevity from a singe coat of that 👍

Glad you enjoyed it thank you 👌

Much appreciated! Thank you 👌

Thanks mate!!, hope you’re well my friend 👌

@@GMDetails I’m good this way thanks 😊 I’ve buckled my wheel and snapped my wheel hub after hitting a pot hole while on holiday 😫 but it’s all sorted now, when getting my wheel refurbed, decided to get all of them done and powder coated. No more scabby looking alloys now 😁😂

Thank you Dave!, yeah they were awesome, so much time was spent just watching them bounce off the panel 😵‍💫 The wax was from a brand no longer trading but was made by one of the main chemical suppliers, you’ll get virtually the same results using any brands ceramic wax , I’ve even had good results from EZ ceramic wax, hope that helps

@@GMDetailsArmor All?

@@Samuelfish2k Do Armour All make a paste wax?

@@GMDetails They used to, but it’s no longer traded.

They do increase pressure over the OEM lance that Karcher supply , for me though it’s more about the right size of orifice for the flow rate of the pressure washer to maximise its potential so I now have moved up to 040 sized nozzles for my new K5 compact. I hope that answers your question 👍

Good question, yes they ‘can’ but pressure isn’t necessarily a good thing, it is for cleaning stone and algae off wood etc but for cleaning cars it’s best that the water flows quicker to protect the paint. But they certainly provide better pressure than the standard Karcher lance

Thank you Adrian!, I’m liking the sound of your system, having a strong base of protection and being able to enjoy waxing knowing that even when it tails off you still have protection there! 👌

Glad you enjoyed it Greg!, thanks mate 👍

Thank you Mark! yes I agree a glaze does actually make a fantastic paint cleanser , haven’t tried a glaze on black trim right enuf but the test really did show up some misinformation that’s been banded about over the years 🤔 Just goes to show to not be a sheep and follow the shepherd, wax on wax off my good friend 😅

Fantastic!!, thanks Adrian 👌

Fantastic!!, I’m glad you’ve already tried this out and had similar results!!, this could really change how people see waxes and start using them again 😊

There are many reasons why a pre rinse is necessary , cool the panel down on a warm day, removing the crusty top layer of dirt /sand deposits so the foam has a better chance to work on the traffic film, whichever method works for the conditions I say 👍

Ahhh yeah that’s a real possibility, maybe I should have left the glaze for longer to harden before applying the wax or do you think that wouldn’t make much difference if the solvents are going to remove it anyway 🤔 That must be why I’ve had such good results with Monstershine Gloss Lock and Ceramic Wax , same sort of ingredients from the same brand 👌

That’s incredible I can’t believe we had similar thoughts on testing similar products, where do you share your results/discussions??

@@GMDetails just in the YT comments sections of relevant videos or when others talk of their experiences. It's only through watching you guys I've thought about doing my own comparisons

Mate!, this was how I felt every night sitting editing this video!!, the hydrophobic behaviour was so infectious

That’s interesting John!, so once clean then use zero decon for best effect you feel?

Thank you Martin!, I get more enjoyment from knowing someone has taken something useful from the video, with more and more new channels popping up only interested in smells rather than how stuff works I enjoy trying new techniques rather than promoting the latest crap.

Thanks Paul!, it’s through our conversation re Glosslock that I had the idea for this video, glad you liked it and I’m keen to hear how you get on with your ceramic waxes 👌

@@GMDetails nearly forgot to mention that I love the new titles and graphics too 👍👍

I’m just not sure of wash plus with those gritty bits in it , supposed to polish as you wash , I’d rather use traditional methods for that 😅

Thanks mate!!, it def does if the weather allows 😅

LoL yes, praying the earlier in May weather returns and the pi**ing rain gives it a rest. Not good for next week sadly - what can we expect in Scotland I guess! 😉

Hi 👋 No, unfortunently not I got no response back from them , if you have a pot like the one I used it’s best to bin it and go back to using ceramic waxes rather than this crap 😤

@@GMDetailshow did you remove it? Clay?

@@user-yi3rq9hz1h just left it on 😅 my brother didn’t mind the rough feel (felt like a vinyl wrap 😅) it eventually washed off

Good choice!, the AG cleaner was working very well for me

Yeah I’ve heard they’ve gone right downhill with delivery and quality lately 🥴

Glad you enjoyed it 👌

Glad it helped 👌

Ah it sounds as though your pressure tips are too small an aperture for the K7 I’d suggest an 040 size like these www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0CZ45Y6C8/ref=cm_sw_r_as_gl_api_gl_i_1YJNVTSQ069G7ZSQJT1R?linkCode=ml2&tag=gmdetails-21

I’ve just gone and tried it with the K7 with a smaller oriface and it pulses so it’s def the nozzles that are not right on your gun

They absolutely are!!, I’m also using a loaner K7 at the moment with the built in hose reel and it’s not much better 🙄

So looks like then, „flex” ones are not a solution also.

Thank you , you shouldn’t need any more than a cleaner and a brush unless somehow the leather top coat has failed and the water has left a stain in which case it would need repaired to put it right

Hi Jim, mine only came with the one oriface and that’s 1.25mm, with the K5 you’ll not need a 1.1mm , did u order the new one with the wider mouth?

@@GMDetails Hi, that's good to know. Nope I couldn't find it in stock anywhere, and I'm in a rush for as my other lance just broke on me.
