    Hey Dasi, I am also a viewer from Scotland, near Perth so it is nice to see a really good Scottish detailing channel. I actually use a lot of the products that you do, and I noticed that you put in a lot of the polar blast concentrate and then filled the rest of the bottle up with water. I tend to do around 125ml of polar blast to 550ml of water and it manages to get really good thick foam. Of course I appreciate there may be a reason to you doing it how you do it, but I thought just to comment and maybe save you some money! Keep up the great work and looking forward to the exciting new content that im sure will be coming soon.

    First time watching your channel. I subscribed as well. I am a keen detailer and have just started machine polishing so it was interesting to watch you go over panel creases and no adverse results. Good to watch another Scotsman ( just outside Glasgow for me) indulging in my passion. I have been waiting to get my hands on the 303 Graphene product. I purchased their tyre cleaner recently, so good. What did you use as your panel wipe. I use Angelwax stripped Ease.
