A few weeks ago I did Pearl's winter detail. This time I chose a new Protectant for her, which is Wolf Chemicals Body Wrap. It's a sealant, which if maintained correctly can last a year to 18 months, so it will definitely protect Pearl well into next year and possibly beyond. I used Wolf Chemical's Nano shampoo and also Wolf's QD - Reparation, as a top up every now and then. 2 coats of Body Wrap were applied, 24 hours apart. You have to be careful that the car does not get wet within 24 hours of the Body Wrap being applied as it can affect beading, etc. The great thing about Body Wrap is it's sheeting abilities. It sheets water like only the very top end waxes from Swissvax or Zymol, are renowned for, but at a fraction of the cost. Body Wrap is also renowned for it's self cleaning properties. (I have posted a picture at the end which shows my husband's 4 week unwashed car, which is wearing the same products, and still shining incredibly despite the many miles he had done in those 4 weeks, in some torrential rain).

Before applying the Body Wrap, I also used Wolf's Shine and Seal, which is a polish and leaves a great base for the Body Wrap to adhere to. The shine left by this alone is quite extraordinary. With the Body Wrap on top, it's even better.

I must say washing a car with Wolf's on is extraordinary to say the least. When you wipe your wash mitt over the car to clean a panel, the Wolf's is all the time repelling the water :doublesho

Not a full write up this time, but the same processes used as always. Anyway, enough waffling, here's some pics





















A couple of both of Wolf cars




This is my husband's car wearing Wolf's, last washed 4 weeks ago, having travelled 2000 + miles all over the country and in torrential rain at times. Still shining brightly:thumb:



Hope you like.

Guys you would be more than welcome to come along anytime. :thumbup:
Ron said to me yesterday he would be interested in a detailing meet so it's something we will try and sort out for those people that are interested. It would probably be next year now as the weather has turned, but if we give enough notice then hopefully we will get enough people turning up. The problem is finding somewhere to do it. I'd be happy to do it at my house but the problem would be parking. If I talk nicely to my neighbour he has a lots of parking space and a huge workshop which could be useful if it's raining, but I wouldn't like to take liberties. Maybe BespokeCarCare might be interested and want to get involved. We'll see :thumbup:

Thanks Mel for your kind comments, here are some links to the products and this company do free postage.
To make the sealant last as long as possible it is advisable to use the nano shampoo (link below). You can use other shampoos but it will "only" last about 6 months, compared to 1 year - 18 months.

Hey Mr BespokeCarCare, that would be great. I was thinking about maybe next April / May when the weather was better, if that fits in with you? And a weekend would be great :thumbup:

Donna, I think BespokeCarCare is based in Shropshire.
