Hi All,

recently purchased my Tuscan which has been Armourfended. what thes best way to clean this? is a matter of treat as normal? i.e good quality shampoo and some autoglm super resin polish?

also do you know if I can use the autoglym extra gloss protection on it as i have a load in the garage

Cheers

This is what I was told by paintshield

1. wash using a regular car shampoo
2. use a hard wax

do not use liquid wax, soft paste wax or spray on waxes as these all tend to break down thefilm as they have a relatively high solvent content.

On my Evora I use Dodo juice diamond white hard wax and I used the equilvalent one for dark cars on the Tuscan.

Be careful around the edges of the film, its easy to leave a line of wax which looks crap.

Using a hard wax, the water beads and runs off exactly as it does with paint
