    Fantastic end to the mini series with fantastic results too.
    Firstly THANK YOU for mentioning what towels/cloths you used as so many videos don't tell you and as there are so many out there it gets confusing and also which side of the cloths to use as it never tells you that on the back of product bottles.
    Secondly you're absolutely right about GT products being great and YES I agree with you, Why oh Why did they make that glass cloth that shape. It drives me potty too but I agree it's a fantastic cloth.
    Thirdly...put your claws away young man, I like my bits of expensive plastic that you so politely refer too 🤣🤣, however I'm really glad you have a day job and do videos part time as your comedian routine certainly needs some help 🤭🤭🤭. Dont look at me for help, I'm just as bad with jokes too🤣🤣

    • @SparkleanAutos
      @SparkleanAutos  6 місяців тому +1

      Haha thank you Paul, I'm glad someone appreciates the jokes (and harmless jibes lol) but all in good fun!
      As for the cloths, I do like to get as much information out there without trying to bore people so I'm glad that comes across that way!
      Thanks again mate and hopefully you'll see a lot more of my dodgy comedy on UA-cam in 2024 😁😁

    An excellent series Mark!, love that Aegean blue and you made it go ‘electric’
    This is a superb end to the series with Sigma and a mysterious trim product 🤔
    Love how natural the video is with a summers day detail!, I recently used Sigma with the dual cloth and have to agree it is incredible! Re V1 v V2 I didn’t really have any issues with v1 that a lot of people had with application but v2 couldn’t be easier now and as a hybrid QD there are ones out there that can last 2-3 months like the MONSTERSHINE one, I did notice that Sigma v2 didn’t last particularly long on my BMW side panels when I last applied it
    Love the Japanese inspired music too!, perfectly balanced with the narration 👌 production is class mate 👌

    • @SparkleanAutos
      @SparkleanAutos  6 місяців тому +1

      🙌🏼 thank you Graeme, very kind words!
      I'm glad the durability isn't just me! V2 is a brilliant product to use, especially with the GT cloths which are very high quality, but the lower half of my cars just don't seem to stay 'protected' for any decent amount of time 😐
      I did enjoy making this one, it was an enjoyable weekend 😊👍🏼

    ✨🚙✨ Stunning finish with Sigma and nicely finished glass and tyres too makes me want to do a full GT detail on my car now.. but it’s 10.25 at night so best not.

    I found AutoGlym bumper & trim gel did a good job on my scuttle trim on one application. I drive an 03 Accord, so similar materials. I wish my Honda gleamed as well as that Civic!

      @SparkleanAutos  3 місяці тому +1

    Cracking series Mark and, i agree with you and the others, more information in bitesoze chunks is a great way forward.
    I'm the only person I know that doesn't like Sigma. In fact, if youre only going to get 3 weeks out of it (on some panels) I haveba number if easier to use products than it. I'm not sure I'll change my mimd on it.
    I did laugh at the rolling car joke.... i have what you're referring to but, they were a gift 😊.
    All the best mate. 👍

    • @SparkleanAutos
      @SparkleanAutos  6 місяців тому +1

      Thank you Lee, really appreciate the support, as always mate 👌🏼🙌🏼
      As for Sigma, well .. show me the product that suits everyone and I'll show you the best place to buy unicorn food 👍🏼 we all have different techniques and it doesn't mean they're wrong if a product doesn't work for us! I love applying Sigma on a dry day but I just don't get anywhere near the durability that some claim to get. And we've chatted before so I know you just don't get on with it... Just one of those things!
      And yes, the rolling car was a cheeky wee joke but thankfully most people have a sense of humour 🤣
      All the best to you too mate 😊👍🏼

  • @jonlinder189
    @jonlinder189 5 місяців тому +1

    Top job sire 👌
    Far as Sigma V2 goes, try leaving it longer before the final buff as I feel it helps the initial bond, and therefore longevity. It's hard as it's just such a slick finishing product...
    I've definitely seen a longer lifespan with customers' cars... actually had one back about 3mths after V1 was applied, hadn't been touched, and was beading again on the upper surfaces after the prewash...
    Oh, and IYKYK... get to MaccyDs for freebie ones...

    • @SparkleanAutos
      @SparkleanAutos  5 місяців тому

      Cheers Jon. Good tips for Sigma, I'll definitely try that next time .. and must head to McDs and stock up, start selling them on eBay 🤣

    As always, thank you. I do enjoy these bite size videos concentrating on certain sections. The end result shows how good metallic blues can look.
    I suppose the real question is, how does GT glass compare to Traceless? Cos that stuff is very very good (and good value too)

    • @SparkleanAutos
      @SparkleanAutos  6 місяців тому

      Thank you! I haven't used Trace-Less yet so can't comment but I'm not generally one for comparisons as it's all subjective to be honest, if we all liked the same things the world would be very dull!
      But I do intend to get some Trace-Less on the channel soon 👍🏼

    The car looks amazing and I do like the colour of that Civic although I was never a fan of that body style on the Civic. I nearly bought the 1st Gen of the Civic Type R but ended up buying a Land Rover but I recently sold my Civic sport plus as I needed a tow bar and couldn't mount one with center exhausts. I was detailing my Jag yesterday and my Mitchel;l & King wax was nearing the end of its life but I thought I would top it with Sigma as I had topped it with GT Qd the last time and it did look good but I had a bottle of Sigma V1 and it really looks good now. I put on the Gyeon wax onto my Qashqai today and the red seemed to deepen and I am looking forward to the rain tomorrow to see the water behaviour. With regards the GT Serum I had used it for about 3 years but am using the Turtle wax graphene tyre dressing and think it is slightly better but will probably go back to Serum as I still have 500ml left. I need to try the glass cleaner again but my opinion on it was not for me but I guess I should give it another go but I do like the AutoBrite Crystal glass cleaner but my bottle is nearing empty. I thought you were going to use CS I really liked it. I had my wife's ex bosses car in for a detail a brand new Q5 straight from the showroom with all the toys and a Special paint, blue colour the same as his football team and I did it with CS over two days as it started to snow halfway through application but I have never used it on any of our cars as I have a few waxes I still have not tried and it was a lot of work not that it's a problem in retirement..Looking forward to whats next from you.

    • @SparkleanAutos
      @SparkleanAutos  6 місяців тому +1

      Thank you John, always look forward to your messages 😊
      I wasn't a fan of this shape of civic either but seeing it all cleaned up & looking new did have me rethinking it!
      Sounds like you enjoy trying lots of different protections and I do appreciate that, it's very addictive! I had considered CS but to be honest this started off as a quick wash and I just got a bit carried away 🤣🤣
      I'm also a fan of the Autobrite glass cleaners and, like I said to someone else in the comments, there's no perfect product to suit everyone!
      Anyway thanks again John and chat soon 👍🏼

    Smashing series bro, lovely shade of blue (for a Honda…you know I love them but they’ve never been known for their top paint jobs).
    I have tried to persevere with Sigma but I just find it too sensitive on the flash to get a good finish..I always end up needing a QD on top to not have streaks-which is very frustrating
    Tyre serum?? Not on my watch!!! Endurance Gel FTW!!! 😂

    • @SparkleanAutos
      @SparkleanAutos  6 місяців тому

      Thanks bro - you're far from alone with Sigma - these cloths do make a massive difference but a lot of people have streaking issues, exactly as you've described! It would be worth persevering if it lasted 3/4 months but for a few weeks it's maybe not worth it for everyone!
      Endurance Tyre Gel 🤦🏻‍♂️ I have no words 😬

  • @patrickvennard838

    Great series Mark, really enjoyed what you done breaking it up into watchable chunks with more detail than normal on each video.
    Very interested to know what the mystery product is though!
    If you know you know, well from my videos you'll see that i also opted to go with that hack and save myself £50 haha

      Haha I can just think of better things to spend my money on 🤣
      Thanks for that Dave, and you've hit the nail on the head, this allows me to get more information into the videos without feeling like I'm compressing it - maybe some people think it's too much information 🤔🤷🏻‍♂️🤣

    Glass cleaning is something i hate as i think ive tried everything under the sun and i still get smears

    • @SparkleanAutos
      @SparkleanAutos  6 місяців тому

      I don't really have an issue on the outside or even the side glass, but I agree that inside the windscreen can definitely be problematic!!
      I do find this one very good but I've just this week received a very different type of glass cleaner which promises to be smear free 🤔 I'll use it a few times first though before risking my own reputation by recommending something I haven't tried! 👍🏼
