Does anyone use Gtechniq I1 Smart Fabric on their half Leather/Alcantara?

​Sounds/Looks like a decent product.

Is there a specific way to use Poorboys Black Hole or is it just like an ordinary polish. I'm going to be doing the dads car and I don't think he'll be to happy if something went wrong. Very nooby question I know.

It is, will work very well on the Alcantara, there is another product called L1 for leather, but it's probably the same stuff.

Just like an ordinary polish mate. Nothing should go wrong if you have half a brain. Oh wait...

Cheers Chappers! Ordered some earlier.. Will see how it goes.

Can anyone tell me what the difference between some of the Auto Finesse products are?

​For example there are 6 different waxes; Temptation, Spirit, Soul, Passion, Illusion and Desire - other than the price what's the difference? Do some work better with different coloured cars?

That's one of their major issues mate. Personally I couldn't really recommend any as such as there are too many.

I would love to recommend Desire but after the whole limited edition fiasco I simply couldn't.

[MatthewR]

Agreed with the above gally. It's a shame as the rest of the products work really well and are reasonably priced, however when looking at their waxes there isn't much to separate them in my opinion.

they would be best sticking with a budget, mid and then high end wax instead of the current 6 and rumoured 7th wax!

Waxes aren't their strong point IMO


If you want one get the cheapest. I've got temptation. Needs to be removed quickly. Went rock solid when I used it

SRP is my 'go to' product. So nice to use and yields great results, even on its own as a quick fix!

Anyone tried AF illusion? How is it on the looks and longevity front?

[Chapppers11]

i really rate Illusion for the finish, but not sure on durability as I used it on my brothers car.
