How To Use

Application

  1. Clean the wheels first with Very Cherry and rinse well before moving on to the paint.
  2. Wash the car with Purple Velvet shampoo using the synthetic wool wash mitt.
  3. Rinse and dry the car, then apply Chocolate Glaze thinly with a foam applicator and buff off with a microfibre towel.
  4. Spray Crystal onto the glass, wipe and buff clear with a clean towel.
  5. Dress the tyres and exterior trim with Well Dressed using the second foam applicator.
  6. Clean and dress the dashboard and interior plastics with Pink Sheen.

Aftercare

  1. Follow the how to use guide printed on the box for each product.
  2. Rinse the wash mitt and wash the towels after use, without fabric softener.
  3. Keep the towel used on glass separate from those used for glaze or dressing.
  4. Close each spray trigger and store the bottles upright in the box.
  5. Store the kit away from frost, heat and children.

Top Tip: Work from wheels to paint to glass to interior, so wheel grime never reaches a freshly cleaned panel.

Glass Care, Wash and Paint Correction

Crystal Glass Cleaner has been part of the Autobrite Direct range since 2005 and, according to the brand, was one of the first products it developed. Its high flash-off formula is designed to be sprayed, wiped and buffed, and the brand describes it as safe for all glass, mirrors and window tints. For heavier contamination, Clear View Glass Polish removes bug splatter, grease, fallout and stubborn stains from glass, and contains no silicones or waxes.

On the wash side, Autobrite Direct describes Citrus Wash as a powerful yet gentle pre-wash and all-purpose cleaner infused with citrus oil, diluted to suit anything from light cleaning to degreasing. BriteGel is a sticky, non-acidic wheel cleaning gel that clings to the wheel and tyre with less run-off, and Ceramic Shield Magiseal is a water-based, SiO2 infused coating that can be applied through a foam lance or with a trigger sprayer.

For paint correction, the Correct It range pairs compounds and polishes with dedicated pads. The brand describes Enrich as a medium machine polishing compound that removes car wash scratches, swirl marks and light oxidation, and as a one-step cut and finish compound for most paint finishes.
