hi, how often do you guys iron-x your candy white cars

cheers

Once every 3 months when I renew the long term wax, Collinite 476s. TBH the first time its a lot more, much less to remove susequently except for the wheels (obviously).

thank, will give collinite 476s a go , where did you buy it from ?

I get all my products including Collinite 476s from http://www.shinearama.co.uk/product.php?id=COL-476S-9oz" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;.
Damages my wallet every time I go down to visit the outlet as I end up buying all sorts of things. Like a kid in a sweet shop.

Collinite 476s is available elsewhere if you google.

Besides the white body work, I've found 476s is very good for protecting and susequent weekly wash of the alloy wheels over the 3 month interval. Very long lasting robust wax for every day usage. Goes on a pad and comes off with a microfibre very easily with little residue "dust".

A tin has just lasted me 2 years at 3 month intervals.

great reply

not as often as i should. Up until recently because of the hosepipe ban, i was scared to use it ( i have the thicker gel version) as i could not hose it away. I am still a bit scared as to how long to leave it on, before it starts to burn. I just dab a bit on ( usually around the rear bumper) whenever i wash the car but never comprehensive enough.

Now, obviously the ban has been lifted, i don't have enough dry days to do the whole car, from Iron-x it to shampoo and layer the wax/ sealant.

wheels - i give them the whole treatment when i swap the summers to the winters or vice versa

anyway, now its dry, so best i stop moaning and just get on with it!
