I've been using alot of autoglym lately and find it to be easy to use and leaves good finishes right across the range. Have also used both mcguires and turtle wax in the past and both were quite good

Hey guys i work @ Darby's Paints

So Ive used alot of different car care products and by far is the Juice range of polishes.
All our panel shops through out Victoria for all 3 darby's shops have switched over to the Juice. I have done demo's for mates and they cant get over the results. Id be happy to show any one who's interested. This stuff destroy's Auto glym, meguiars, farecla, gelson all the big brands the only thing i havnt found so far is a really good interior cleaner and car shampoo, anyone know of any please let me know currently testing a few atm!

on the bonnet the clears pealing, so thats a lost cause, but its the rest of the paint work has the normal surface scratches and dings, i want to keep good until i can get the $ together to get the whole car re-painted.

Sam you may have to demo that polish for me mate, I've been using Farecla #6 for about 4yrs, this stuff looks like it may be the Gee Oh.
Looking at the youtube vids, is he actually using a wool pad or are my eyes failing me in my old age lol

Subject: Re: What car care products do you use? Wed Jul 06, 2011 12:20 am

yeah glenn when i bought all the juice stuff its recommended to get a wool pad aswell...sam can verify this tho...as i dont have the juice products anymore...fuckin retarded ex-boss lmao!

Yeah using a wool pad, the Juice range has 2 foam pads and a wool pad, the only reason they brought out foam pads is because you cant change some peoples minds. But Steve himself recommends using the Wool pad for everything, I have all three of the Juice pads and from my personal experience the Wool pad actually works better than the foam pads, and i use the wool pad everytime now.

We use to be a big farecla distributor throughout Victoria from all three stores now we sell, sweet eff all of it. Most people have actually changed to the Juice.

I would be more than happy to do a demo for people, We have actually tested the Juice by wiping the panel down with Prepsol ( Prepwash, wax n grease remover), after cutting the panel and it still looks amazing, now you try and do that with Farecla and i bet you know how it would come out.

Hey guys next week im going away on buisness for Darby's and one of the things im doing is attending a training/info session on this new range of car care products for Darby's i have heard there not as good as the Juice cutting compound and wax, but there really interested in their interior cleaner's and waterless wash n wax and that stuff, so if anybody has any questions they would like me to ask? and what your looking for in a car care product? i.e smell?,glossiness? lasting?

Well, I lashed out at the start of the week and bought a full Juice Polish Kit off Sam.
I used just the polish on Tuesday to see how good it works, and I must say that it works a treat. I'm having to learn how to use a wool pad again but it's all coming back to me lol.
Can't wait to start polishing the body on a black XD tomorrow Smile

that will be the big test.
