Expert Notes

Dunking Biscuit's Optik is a dedicated exterior glass cleaner built around the brand's water repellent chemistry. Supplied ready to use in a 500ml bottle with no dilution needed, it is applied by lightly spraying onto the exterior glass, spreading evenly and buffing with a glass cloth for a streak free, sparkling finish. Beyond cleaning, Optik leaves a hydrophobic barrier on the glass that repels water and is marketed for its durability, which can reduce reliance on windscreen wipers in wet conditions. It suits anyone who wants clearer visibility in poor weather and pairs well with a dedicated glass cloth and an anti-fog interior glass cleaner as part of a wider detailing routine.

Perfect For / Suitable Surfaces

  • Windscreens
  • Front and rear side windows
  • Rear windows
  • Wing mirrors
  • Sunroof glass
  • Other exterior vehicle glass

Caution: Optik is formulated for exterior glass only. Test on a small hidden area first and wipe away any overspray from paint or trim promptly.

Aftercare

  1. Store the bottle upright in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight.
  2. Keep the cap tightly closed between uses.
  3. Wipe the trigger spray head clean after use to stop it clogging.

Dunking Biscuit wash, decontamination and wheels

Pre-wash. Citrus Blast (also 2500ml) is a citrus pre-wash for bug splats and road grime that thickens to a gel once applied. It is safe on waxes and sealants, matte paint and vinyl wraps: spray it on, leave it three to four minutes without letting it dry, then rinse. Velvet (also 2500ml) is a thick, pH neutral snow foam that needs just 25ml in a 1 litre foam lance and lifts dirt in about five minutes; Velvet V2 is the slightly alkaline version, at 15 to 25ml a wash.

Shampoos. Feelin' Bubbly is a high foaming, pH neutral shampoo with anti-marring additives and a tutti frutti scent: 20 to 30ml in a 20 litre bucket, with a second bucket of clean water to rinse the mitt. It comes as a sample and in 2500ml. Feelin' x The Drivers HQ is our shared pH neutral shampoo, with up to 25 washes in a 500ml bottle. Forged (also 2500ml) is a low foaming, SiO2 infused shampoo that leaves a hydrophobic layer, so it tops up existing protection as you wash.

Decontamination. Melt (and sample) is a pH neutral iron fallout remover that clings as a gel, for all wheel types, metals and plastics; leave it no more than five minutes, wear gloves and keep it off vinyl wraps. Purge is a sprayable gel for tar and sticky residue, applied to a dry surface. The Fine Grade Clay Bar (200g) lifts tree sap, fallout and other bonded dirt, used with Loob, a water based clay lubricant.

Wheels and tyres. Blitz (also 2500ml) is a non-acidic, non-caustic wheel and tyre cleaner: neat for heavy dirt, 5:1 for medium and 10:1 for light. The Rim Ticklers are a long and a short synthetic wheel woolie for wheels, exhausts and door shuts. Glitz Creme (and sample) is a water based gel tyre dressing that does not sling: four pea-sized drops on an applicator, then 20 minutes before you drive.

Dunking Biscuit protection, interior and kit

Protection and gloss. Aura (and sample) is an SiO2 ceramic quick detailer for paint, metal, glass and plastics, which Dunking Biscuit rates at three months of protection from a spray and wipe. Hydro Boost (and sample) is a polymer rinse sealant rated at up to three months: mix 25ml with 475ml of water, spray it onto the wet car a panel at a time and rinse after about a minute. Quartz (and sample) is a liquid creme hybrid wax sealant that the brand rates at up to nine months. The Show Wax 01 Cure Kit boxes a 100ml tin of lemon scented wax made with T1 grade carnauba, an applicator and two microfibre cloths. Gleam is an all in one polish that cleans, polishes and leaves wax protection for around two months. Immerse is a gloss enhancing detailer for show day finishing, and Elixir is a gel trim dressing that restores faded plastics with protection for up to four weeks.

Interior and glass. Spruce (and sample) is a water based interior detailer for plastics, vinyl, rubber and metal, leaving a non-sticky, anti-static satin finish and a rhubarb scent. Luxour (and sample) cleans, conditions and freshens leather from a 240ml foaming pump. Optik (and sample) cleans outside glass and leaves a water repellent layer, while Vision (and sample) is an ammonia free glass cleaner that leaves a film to resist fogging. Air Fresh comes in 250ml mist bottles of Cherry Cola, Grape and Lemon, sprayed onto carpets and mats.

Care and kit. Dynamic (and sample) is a concentrated wash that keeps microfibre towels and pads absorbent. The Microfibre Wash Mitt has deep strands, a foam core and an elasticated cuff. The Mix Bottle is a 500ml trigger bottle with a label to note what is inside, and The Dunking Hauler is a 35 litre detailing bag, 50 x 25 x 28cm, with bottle loops, Velcro dividers and mesh pockets.
