Hey guys, i just picked up a bottle of the Nu Finish Cling Spray Shine, after a quick wash (car was only waxed about 2 weeks ago)

and a dry off you just mist it on, wipe over it with a cloth then pretry much instanty wipe again. For only being 14.99 a bottle i was quite happy with the results.

If anyone else has tried it id be interested in feedback/alternative spray quick shines, Thanks :)

I cant say anything about the Nu finish spray, But Iv been using the Meguiars Ultimate quick wax, Its awsome stuff, A little more expensive but if ur just seeing whats out there i would deffnitly suggest giving it ago.

+1 for FI :)

but off the shelf products i do like autoglym products, followed by megs/mothers

noone i love waxes that can be applied without drying, i use them on all my other cars.. but only the best for the skyline :P

i believe FI is releasing a spray wax sooner though .. meant to be similar to OCW which is another great spray wax

Nu finish is the devil. I had to paint a good mates bumper for him. He's the most over the top person when it comes to cleaning his cars (i never thought that could be a bad thing). The bar was painted three times because of the amount of silicon that the new finish left behind. Even after prepsol/wax n grease and correct prep work was done. In the end we degreased the living sh#t out of it and it was fine. Third time lucky i spose. Thats just my 2c anyway. If it was me I'd stick with the same as Jonno34 as far as off the shelf stuff goes.

From a chemist's perspective, if a person were to apply over time 4 different polishes > 4 different sealants etc, what's to say that the chemical of one might react with another from a different brand name; and through their incompatibility generate some marks or even flaking?

Has this ever happened?

I mean, if one used a process where Auto Glym was used throughout, or another guy was to use Menzerna throughout & a third guy was to use Meguiars throughout: each product would be compatible with another from the same brand. But surely these companies might end up using chemicals that are incompatible with chemicals from a different brand perhaps?

And if there was an incompatibility? What's the likelihood that the last product applied was blamed for some markings when in fact the product underneath it was the chemical 'time bomb'?

Heck I've even come across two skin creams that needed to be applied to the patients skin where cream A had to be applied throughout the day & the other called B shouldn't. So B had to be applied at night after washing.

Thoughts? > Experiences?

^ i used to be worried about that too, so whenever I bought new products I'd buy a whole companys lineup ..

was usually meguiars back then, and id pick products so that it was mostly all "nxt" stuff etc.

since starting to use FI stuff i went to a mostly FI range of products.

but FI does/used to sell alot of products that were not developed themselves, so the whole brand incompatibility might be disproved by that logic .. I use a range of brands now though, FI keep discontinuing products on their online store that have to be replaced with other brands while their still developing their new product pinch.gif so far I haven't had any problems using different brands of waxes, wash solution etc with my FI stuff :)

(ps did the coilovers arrive yet? - it was meant to arrive before xmas apparently ..)

      R33 GTR lift points for hoist

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I mean, if you were to move the jacking points away from the original location, that is, away from the wheels and closer to the centreline of the car, then it will be more likely to overbalance and tip off the supports. Same as we talked about before. I was talking about moving for-aft. If the sill is bent outward or inward, then the car would obviously look unstraight from the outside. Hopefully that hasn't happened either. Again, you can do comparative measurements from the chassis rails to see if there is much deflection.

      Can you elaborate what you mean with your first sentence? I meant move as in the bulge kinda seemed like it got pulled "outward" meaning it got pulled down and to the side with the jacking rail itself, so the load bearing bulge now sits lower than usual and is not level with the sill on the other side of the jack point. Either that or the jacking rail just got pushed in a good bit.

      As well as being risky WRT tipping off anyway. Yeah, I wouldn't expect it to move. Just measure from the rear one to the front one on the good side, then measure that same length on the wrecked side. You will find the notches in the pinchweld, and the jacking pad. Just spray a spot of marker paint or something there.

      but any other area than the bulge you are talking about will just cave in then? The front driver side is pretty bent so I don't know if that will work the way it is now. I can still kinda make out where that bulge is/was but it looks like the position of it also changed due to all the mistreatment? Hard to tell

      Absolutely. Look very closely at the photo (of yours) that I took my second snip of. See how the sill is thicker material right behind the pinchweld, where the two notches are? That is the factory reinforced area for lifting. That pad is supposed to carry the weight. The factory jack (go look at it, and how it interfaces with the car at the pinchweld) shows you exactly how the load is carried from the car to the jack to the ground.
