Description:Leather Care Balm is a carefully blended pH neutral emulsion containing soaps, natural oils and surface proofing agents which nourish and moisturise vehicle leather. Extremes of hot and cold weather along with air conditioning can take their toll on your leather interior. Although designed to be very hard wearing, certain leathers can dry out over time and may crack. Leather Care Balm ensures that your leather has the oils it requires, without leaving an unnatural gloss, sticky or greasy surface residues. Use Leather Care Balm twice a year to keep your leather supple and crack free. In warmer climates you may require Leather Care Balm more often. Pro Tip: Always use Leather Cleaner first to ensure Leather Care Balm can fully absorb into a clean dry surface.
Package includes: 500ml Leather Care Balm Squirt bottle
--- How to use: 1. Shake well and test a small inconspicuous area first to check for water staining and colour fastness. 2. Apply Leather Care Balm to a Perfect Palm Applicator or soft cotton cloth. Gently massage into the surface of the leather and continue until the balm is absorbed. 3. Allow a few minutes for absorption to take place then buff with a Hi-Tech Interior Microfibre or a clean cotton cloth.

Description:Leather requires a special set of products to ensure these hard wearing, yet chemically sensitive surfaces, remain in perfect condition. Leather Cleaner is a pH neutral formula that can safely be used on all interior leather surfaces. If you are unsure whether something is real leather, it can be safely used on faux leather too. Leather Cleaner will not add a shine to your seat, but leave it with a natural matt finish. It is free of silicones and other masking agents that can leave an unpleasant feel to your interior. Leather Cleaner is not for use on household leather.
Pro Tip: Apply Leather Care Balm following cleaning to keep leather supple and crack free.
--- How to use: 1. Vacuum the interior thoroughly, using a soft brush to remove as much dust and dirt as possible. 2. Apply Leather Cleaner and rub a hidden area with a soft cloth to ensure colour fastness. Provided there is no colour transfer, continue to clean, spending longer on any stains or dirt trap areas. 3. After 2 minutes remove the remaining cleaner and dirt by wiping over the area with a damp Hi-Tech Aqua-Dry or a clean cloth. Rinse the cloth frequently in a large bucket of water. Allow the surface to dry to a natural finish.

Description:Ultimate Screenwash is a highly concentrated formula that can be diluted to suit a range of weather conditions, seasons and screen contaminants. The 500ml container makes up to 8 litres of screenwash and will easily cut through road grime, insect remains and everything else that may end up on your windscreen. During the winter the dilution can be adjusted to suit falling temperatures whilst maintaining screen cleaning capabilities. If used neat, Ultimate Screenwash remains effective and unfrozen at -45°C! Suitable for all wash jet types, as well as headlight wash units, safe on paintwork and trim.
--- How to use: 1. Follow the on-pack dilution table and mix accordingly. 2. For example, Optimum Clean is 1:9. That is 1 part screenwash to 9 parts water. A part can be any size, as long as the same part size is used. You could pour 1 full bottle of screenwash into the screenwash tank then refill the bottle 9 times with water and add it to the tank. This would make up 5L of ready to use screenwash.

Description: Ultra Deep Shine is a polish for use on black and dark coloured cars suffering from excessive swirling, fine scratches or holograms.
Ultra Deep Shine is an 'all-in-one' formula that polishes and protects in one. For this reason Ultra Deep Shine should not be followed by Extra Gloss Protection or High Definition Wax.
Pro Tip: Do not allow the product to dry onto the paintwork for a long time, apply to a panel, allow to dry, then buff off immediately. If Super Resin Polish is used there is no need to use Ultra Deep Shine.
Q. I have a non-metallic red Audi with a small scratch on the boot door - what would you recommend to cover/fix the scratch? A. When scratches occur in paintwork, depending on how deep the scratch will determine what course of action is available to you. As a rule of thumb, if you can get your finger nail into the scratch then you will not be able to repair the area by hand and will need professional advice or a paint pot. If the scratch is not that deep then Super Resin Polish is very effective at removing scratches. Just apply a little more pressure than normal to the area and regularly check your progress.

I have heard from customers using Super Resin Polish on the same vehicle for 20 years with no issues other than gleaming paintwork.
