Unfortunately, the Auto Finesse Verse APC is also out of stock. Megs APC is the best but again its out of stock everywhere. Maybe you can try this https://www.autofresh.in/brand/detai...r-degreaser-5l Last edited by Artyom : 10th February 2021 at 23:21. | |

| ![]() Looks like I got confused with the color and packaging of the bottle which resembles the one with Proklear WFC.Apologies again and thanks for correcting me. |

| ![]() Greens car care has Meguiars APC in stock. Price is around 2400 for 5.5 kg. That's the only size available. Does one need that much APC? Is greenz car care a reliable website for ordering this? Meanwhile, Amazon has Wavex APC which retails at Rs 562 for one litre bottle. Has anyone tried this brand?

| ![]() Plus, Greens Car Care charges 400 for delivery. I have used Wavex Degreaser in the past for car engine, it does its job. Just take care of the dilution ration

BHPian ![]() | ![]() O' BHPians of the detailing thread, what is your wisdom. I want to get a wax for my 7 year old safari to get some of that gloss back. And also on my newer cleaner cars for some of that water beading goodness. Should I just pickup something from a well known brand or is there something I should look out for?? Thanks in advance ![]() |

Second option would be Sonax Xtreme Brilliant Shine Detailer if you want a convenient way out. Third would be Turtle Wax Hybrid Solutions Ceramic Spray coating, which I suppose is an improved version of ICE Seal n Shine and has UV inhibitors too to avoid paint fade. Never used the original Seal n Shine so won't comment on that. For a 7 year old car, I would recommend you get it compounded/polished first. | |

Yes, will surely dilute it before using. Only need it to get rid of brake dust in the inner side regularly and make sure it doesn't get caked on. |

| ![]() My Creta 1.4 DCT finally met its first major scratch when I bumped into a typically misplaced Delhi Police barricade while negotiating the narrow lanes of Lajpat Nagar. ![]() ![]() The front bumper has some white and yellow paint transfer and a 2 inch long scratch. I had got the car ceramic coated in November 2020 with Modesta BC-04. Was wondering what is the best advice on fixing these in a cost effective way. Would you suggest any DIY? Or is it best left to a detailer? Looking forward to hearing from you guys! Dear Mods- If this post is better suited to a different thread, please do merge it so. Thanks. |

Generally, once rubbed-on paint is removed from a mishap, it will not look nearly as bad as you think. The rest is down to the extent and depth of the scratches. Clean off that paint and photograph again! | |

Would you recommend using a thinner to remove the paint (have some lying around)? Last edited by iamitp : 14th February 2021 at 15:01. | |
