Hi,

Hoping to put the winter coat on the car this weekend.  intending to do the below by hand:

snowfoam
2 bucket wash with BTBM
clay
re-wash
Blackhole
Blackfire

Being advised to used tardis.  I'm  little hesitiant in using a strong chemical being a bit of beginner.  Car is currently wearing lusso wax applied a little while ago.  Anyone else used Tardis or have done something similar and just used clay to strip the previous wax.  The car currently is not a daily runner and therefore has no tar spots

Cheers

stealthwolf:
Then why use Tardis? My car is a daily runner and despite that, Tardis had a small effect. I sprayed it on to the lower edges (sills, bumpers, lower halves of doors etc), left it to dwell and then rinsed it off. Do it after claying IMO.

hammyhammer:
That was my thoughts, being advised to ensure all previous products are stripped.

Was feeling a little un-comforatble with it to be honest which is why i wanted to checkto see if anyone else used it.  Think I will just go with the claying as strong products like Tardis worry me a little

Richn83:
Jay advised me to use diluted APC (All Purpose Cleaner) to remove previous wax layers and products might be a better call I would imagine its probably cheaper too, and has more uses depending on the dilution used.  cleaning seats, engine bay wheel arches.

I have used Tardis in the past as a tar spot remover.  Used only in very localised areas, and not sprayed lliberally all over.

Tardis is excellent at removing tar from the inside of wheels.
