Waxes, cleaning products

Postby DaveWA » Thu Jul 07, 2011 12:38 pm

Firstly, no affiliation I gain nothing from the supplier, no vested interest etc.....

I found these guys http://www.carcareproducts.com.au
they have some pretty good gear including aerospace 303

have suggested they contact Okibi re sponsorship of this forum

I've heard good things about waxit.com.au but they're probably not for beginners as they have a rather large range...

also no affiliation.

all these things are easy to buy from local shop front businesses- ie touch and feel , read the label etc. My local paint supplier also has a full range of products for automotive requirements and can give advice as well.

I too have heard good things about Waxit, and they have a great range, particularly hard to find brands. I think Dave has personally tried everything he sells too. :D

I was planning to do an order there on some of the Poorboys products a while back and never got round to it.

I think a few of us should combine to buy the Zymol Royale Glaze (http://www.vertar.com/zymol/zymol-royale-glaze/). We were discussing it the other night, as Damian at Final Inspection sells it. $20,000, but free refills for life! Who wants to go in? :D

Dave at Waxit is excellent - I bought my stuff from his shop. However, it looks like he's moved from Brisbane to 34B Tradepark Drive, Tullamarine now :(

I have a suspicion that he may have sold the business.

I believe you are correct, about 7 months ago it seems - been a while since I needed to buy anything from him. Oh well, I hope the new owners keep up the good work.

Have bought from both carcareproducts and waxit in the past and can highly recommend either.

Personal faves include poorboys pro polish - very easy to use and extremely versatile.

Dodojuice super natural wax - got the 'panel pot' which is a little lip gloss size sample pot. I had to see what all the internet fuss was about with these ridiculously expensive 'super' waxes and supernatural kept popping up as being as good or better then any. Then I found the small pot for a sensible amount of money and couldn't resist. So how is it? It is without a doubt absolutely magic sh*t! The one tiny pot will easily do the mx5 two or three times double coating it. It makes the paint look absolutely unreal, super easy to clean afterwards, and it lasted at least 3 months (carport and regularly washed). Highly recommended. Especially in combination with:

Dodojuice red mist tropical - Awesome quick spray on stuff. Takes about 15 minutes to do the whole car after a wash and is essentially as good as spending hours waxing. Lasts maybe a month on its own.

I have the 303 soft top kit as well and am impressed with how 'new' it makes the vinyl look.

Dan.
