Waxit

CarPro Perl 1L
NV Snow 1L (wanted to try Reset but just a bit too expensive and I'm really happy with NV snow)
Monsoon waffle weave towel

The Detail Store

The Rag Company 'The Gauntlet' towel x 2 (one 30 x 30, one 38 x 60)
P&S Rags to Riches microfibre wash
P&S Brake Buster wheel cleaner spray bottle 473ml

Now to tell the wife....

Firstly, very well chosen!

Secondly, my apologies to your wife.

You will love those Gauntlet towels, one of my favorite drying towels. Maintained with Rag's to Riches, they should last you for a long time.

Reset is expensive, although it is in my opinion the best on the market. But.........the difference back to Snow is not massive and for the price, Snow is a bargain for what you get.

With Perl, it can be used a either diluted or neat.

I have some mixed at 5:1 for use on wheel arches and rubber mats, that dilution can be used on the interior plastics as well. To be honest, I prefer 303 for that role. For exterior trims they recommend 3:1.

For tyres, many will dilute it but I prefer using straight from the bottle. CarPro supply a sprayer head with bottles of Perl but these actually won't spray the undiluted liquid. As such, I recommend re-purposing a pop top or pump action dispenser. You might need to raid the kitchen............. I played it safe and used an old Adam's pop top.





Such equipped, you simply squeeze Perl onto your applicator.
