Ayup Stewart! As a retired autobody man myself 😅 i remember when i started in the business back in 1978 the Lincoln Mercury dealership we did all their work, was selling an auto paint sealant ( i think it was called polyglycoat) as a permanent wax. What a nightmare it was to get off the paint!!! 😢. My first job i ever did was to wet sand the fish eyes out of a black Lincoln continental. 2 days of sanding in the Florida sun! I should have gotten sun poisoning 🙃. After I was done and showed up the next morning, my boss knew that I was going to be an autobody man for life!😂😂😂
I’ve used this for a couple of years now and certainly is magic! Brought life back into my neglected flat white van which amazes me every time. Wouldn’t be without it now 😀
Mr Stu i know people like to give hate for product reviews but i just want to say thank you for doing this. I am always on the look out for car/bike products that get the nod of approval from someone i can trust so thank you 😊
Excellent video Stuart! I'll try it on my commuter bike as it needs some TLC. I put Ceramic Coatings on my new bike 3 years ago when I bought it. Matte coating on the matte paint and gloss coating on the gloss paint. It was the first time I had done this (and it was expensive). The coating is excellent, and, _on the gloss,_ you can use waxes. 3 years and 12,000 miles later the coating is still working like day one with the water beading on the surface in most areas... If you are going to apply a Ceramic Coating, and I strongly recommend that you do, _make sure the paint surface is spotless and repair (polish out) any scratches _*_before applying_* as the ceramic coating *_will_* seal in any blemishes. The coating where your clothes rub against the paint, does rub off after about 6 months. The problem is you then have to use a polishing compound of some sort on the affected area before thoroughly cleaning it and re-applying the ceramic coating. I wouldn't be too worried about repainting, if you need to have the paint refinished, a light sanding with something like 2000 grit wet and dry or a cutting compound would probably remove the coating in preparation for repainting.
Hi Stewart just a quick thank you. I was about to buy a second hand Bonnivlle but after watching your posts I have just ordered a low milage Interceptor it is being delivered today. Also I live in Keyingham so it is nice to see the local views particualy sunk Island keep up the good work
I am more tight fisted than you neighbour I use ceramic polish on my bike and on my house double glazed windows so I don’t have to pay a window cleaner to clean my windows, they are now almost self cleaning and the rain just runs off. Your product videos are great.
Fair review. Similar product, that's been around for years, is Gyeon Wet Coat. The downside with these type of ceramic coats is the shininess level, which is lower than other products. I tend to use them as quick and easy coats for winter use.
Oh the muc off power washer returns….good to see. Yeah not sold on the ceramic coating on a motorcycle, but lots of people seem to use them so who knows for the future.
Hello Stuart, with just one or two exceptions I'm almost exclusively using AD products now for the bike and car They work and seem to last. What more can I ask for?
Hi Stu! I had my speed triple lacquered, professionally! It had been ceramic coated. They said they would never paint another ceramic coated vehicle again, as it was an absolute nightmare to remove! 😊
Hi Stuart, I have been using Auto Finesse Ceramic foam on my T5 for a couple of years as a top up for a Kenzo ceramic coat. This works pretty well, but does not have the longevity that Magiseal appears to have. I have used Gtechniq Crystal Serum on one of my bikes and this is excellent and very therapeutic to apply!
Well, I took the plunge and bought some of this from Halfords. Bloody hell it's good! Thanks for doing this video Uncle Stu ( even though I'm nearly 66 😂)
Could be a great product, don't know, never tried this type of sealer. But I do know that I would miss the cleaning , sealing , waxing process that bonds me to my car. Gives me a chance to look the car over carefully and catch those things that need attention. Guess I'm just odd. Of course this is a car that is used 3 or 4 months a year and I have a long miserable winter to due this process....in a heated garage! The winter car is lucky it gets washed after the season ends.
Magiseal will not harm a soft top, however we recommend avoiding just to avoid product wastage and extra effort to rinse. There will be no benefit to soft top application.
Hi Stewart I ordered the autobright product but the discount code did not work im not bothered about it just letting you know incase you get a load of comments
Come on Stu, really , car polish, magic and neighbors cars? Cleaning stuff, I am disappointed with you. I am un subbing and good bye. Lol 😂 I could not help myself! I really enjoy your channel and glad I woke up early today. Keep it all coming. Not sure it will help my 23 year old truck with clear coat has come off the hood and roof. But if you think it would, let me know!
Couldnt beleave that anyone still uses water to clean a car. I've been a waterless wax enthusiast for years now. Every 6 months I top up the protection.
I cant believe people are still falling for the waterless cleaning scam, I thought that had died out with flared trousers! Those products are 90% water, very expensive water. But it does make a very effective grinding paste on your paintwork when it loosens up the grit and grime!
The main reason it's still a major success is its demonstration on the TV channel Ideal world. With the addition of microfiber cloths it is used by luxury carmakers and gives a beautiful showroom shine. Can't remember using it when I wore bell bottomed jeans however. All the best Stuart.
Stuart are you certain that you are not a Quebecois from the sixties , a Cooper a Thumper , a jap watch and always fussing around your weels ? you would of been a perfect fit with our club called the brothers , all nuts about the mini in its many liveries and motor bikes a la english , the good times but no american cars allowed nor triumphs

read that as " I'll try it on my computer " ! 🤣
Sure hope Tom has a great sense of humor, he took more of beating than the dirt on your mini!

I love Carnuba wax on paint looks good & smells nice too.

Currently on offer at Halfords for around £17ish just for this Bank Holiday weekend. (£15 for trade card holders which is a steal!)
Interesting you talk about Autoglym Polar Seal, I was advised by Autoglym NOT to use it on motorcycles because of the high silicon content.
Great review Stu , the paintwork is really popping on your mini now 👍
Excellent review Stuart. Thanks for that and I’ll have a go. Have a good weekend!
I'm a sucker for this sort of stuff, I have shelves of cleaning gloop, but this does look good. Ordered the Decon shampoo and the Magiseal.
Good info Stu. Thanks mate 👍
Love the tea bag comment, I will try some of this product, especially as it supports the channel.
Oh the muc off power washer returns….good to see. Yeah not sold on the ceramic coating on a motorcycle, but lots of people seem to use them so who knows for the future.
Morning Stu. Thanks for the info. It looks a good product. I’ll give it a try.
Have a great weekend Stu.
I’m trying the Autoglym Ceramic Quick Spray to see how that works.
I use the Autoglym Polar Snow foam on the car and found that brilliant

I've been waiting for you to do a video on a 'ceramic' sealer, thanks Stuart. Just the job for a car.👍
Well, I took the plunge and bought some of this from Halfords.
Bloody hell it's good!
Thanks for doing this video Uncle Stu ( even though I'm nearly 66 😂)
Nice one Stuart.....
Good one stu
Did you take part in the Distinguished Gentlemans ride today?

I’m considering wrapping my motorcycles tank and cowl with vinyl. Do you have any experience or suggestions? Thank you for the video.
Morning Stu 👍😁
Morning. Should the brake discs be covered on a motorcycle. To stop it getting on the discs.
Use a brake cleaner before riding
NOT recommended for soft-top applications or Motorcycles.
Which bits do we need to careful around ? Switchgear and seat ?
Avoid the seat and use a good brake cleaner on your discs before riding.

Hi Stewart I ordered the autobright product but the discount code did not work im not bothered about it just letting you know incase you get a load of comments
Sorry about that!
Brilliant video as always Stuart and this is another wallet opener you've shown me, gotta get some before its sold out 😊👍🏻
Good Morning, will this product cause problems if it gets on the seat of a motorcycle?
Just be careful with any rapid changes in speed you might fly off 😂
cover or remove the seat and clean brake discs before riding.
I’ve used ceramic foam for years and just cover everything. Never once had a problem.
WOW I'm up late. Top of morning and good night. 10:30 PM.
Come on Stu, really , car polish, magic and neighbors cars? Cleaning stuff, I am disappointed with you. I am un subbing and good bye. Lol 😂 I could not help myself!

"Wax on. Wax off."
Mr Miyagi knew his stuff
Exactly
Is private car wash allowed in the UK ?
Question from eco-socialistic Germany.
I have a vision of motorists having illegal gatherings where car enthusiasts wash their cars rather than racing 😂🤣
If the uk (nanny state) authorities stop allowing us to wash our own private bikes/cars, it really will be the end of life as we know it. 😮
Yes, this is still allowed. Sometimes in summer we have a hosepipe ban, but these only last a few months.
Ay oh....
Couldnt beleave that anyone still uses water to clean a car.

@@teddy5069 Is your last name Bear by any chance?

No wonder the country is failing when "shiny stuff" is more important than national fiscal policies.
Why did you bother to watch it then!?🙄
@@paul4627 because Stuart has put out some good videos. This video was nothing like the ones I've watched.
@@paul4627 don't think I will watch any more of this channel.
@LabRat6619 Oh well, he can't please everybody all of the time.
