Always a pleasure to see this pair in action. Thanks for posting! As Extra Gloss Protection is a thin liquid it is easy to over apply and that is where you get the dust and slight grabbing of the cloth. It is easy to do, but as you say, even if you do pop a bit too much on it doesn't cause any real problems.

[@AutoglymUK]

@@emilygreen6496 Give them a good shake. If they look and smell as they should they will nearly always be ok. At worst they wont be as effective, they do not transform into something dangerous. Ideally we expect things to be used up around 2 years after purchase.

@@AutoglymUK how about rapid ceramic spray? can it be used on a top coat of super resin polish and extra gloss protection or just super resin polish and rapid ceramic spray is enough?

[@AutoglymUK]

@@aizatalias6360 Super Resin Polish and Rapid Ceramic Spray would be enough, no point in using Extra Gloss Protection too. Rapid Ceramic Spray is also excellent when used as a standalone product too if your paintwork does not require polishing.

Fantastic finish.! Thanks

[@DavidHalfordsLane]

I started becoming obsessed with car cleaning g about a year ago. I’ve learnt so much and I think half the battle is knowing what products and equipment work for you. It’s daunting when you first start but I’ve now built up a list of things I like and those which I don’t. Cost is always a consideration but Autoglym for me is still a go to manufacturer. Always nice to experiment though and you never stop learning. Thanks for posting.

[@ObsessiveCarDetailer]

Always a pleasure to get positive feed back David, thank you & you are spot on. Lots of great products on the market but AG very rarely let you down & easy to get.

[@maseraticc2834]

Excellent video Martin thank you. I've used SRP & EGP for 20+ years, usually on my daily cars as they are less work and produce excellent results. I will be using them both late-spring/early-summer on my car as it needs some tlc. I apply the SRP on a dual-action polisher which does a great job preparing the paint for the final stage. Once the EGP has been buffed off, I will go over with a quick spritz of detailer spray to finish off - this will give months and months of protection, although I will still top up the EGP every so many washes as its so quick to use.

[@ObsessiveCarDetailer]

Hi, thanks for commenting. Yep great way to apply SRP probably getting the best from the product & like you say with good QDs you will get great protection as well as the cars looking good.. I have a video out tonight where I use Menzerna Power Lock, another product that has been on my shelf for years and forgotten about & again delivers👍

On the few occasions I polish the car the Autoglym range has been my preferred choice over the last 35 years. The gloss protection is new to me which I used for the first time last year when I changed my car. Great video! Don’t worry about the stick you get for this, it’s a product most will go for first and having videos on this is far better than some premium polish you have to have delivered.

Cheers Paul, appreciate your comments mate👍

[@chrisgee7631]

Great video! I’ve recently used these two again myself for the first time in years and the finish is excellent. I bought two new bottles and I didn’t notice much dust either. I know egp lasts a while and maybe not as long as the newer products but who cares as part of the reason we do it is because we like polishing cars and making them look good! 👍

[@ObsessiveCarDetailer]

Thanks Chris, I think the formula has changed a little in recent years to reduce dust. Very difficult to find fault in either product and spot on about longevity. If we keep the car clean and looking good then who cares about it. Thanks for commenting mate👍

[@bartmuytjens1014]

Great to see SRP in action. I've used many other products but have come back to this one. No fuss, easy application, great shine. I usually top it with Collinite Insulator wax, another blast from the past. They pair very well and give a long lasting shine, good beading, etc. What's not to like.

[@TheExStig]

I've been using these for about 15 years solid (maybe more) and will continue to. In my experience the 'EGP' lasts for 6 months. Continuous beading in that time, repelling rainwater and flushing off grime at the same time to maintain a fine gloss appearance. A fantastic product at a very good price as well.

[@ObsessiveCarDetailer]

Its a shame we don't see more of these well established products on KZbin now days instead of concentrating on new releases

[@CyprusPluto]

Many thanks for this. I've been using Autoglym Super Resin Polish for years and started using their Gloss Protection about 5 years ago, but have had real problems with the latter and was going to stop using it. I was really struggling to take it off; as you say it's grippy and I hand polish. So I watched ths video and I know where I've been going wrong. I've been putting too thick a coat on. So this time I copied you and put a thinner coat on and hey presto; it worked wonderfully and I took if off very easily. So not only can I now keep using it, you've also saved me money, because the thinner coat means I use less of it

Another superb impartial video Martin, I've told you before I'm an autoglym man through and through and have been for more years than I care to remember, yes their are better more modern products out there but autoglym is reliable and dependable, yes not every product is top of the class but they do an honest job. I think the biggest problem with most people is that they aren't as 'fashionable' as the likes of Garage Therapy and other new comers to the scene.... I'm old school and probably always will be ' wax on wax off ' 🤣🤣🤣.... must admit though everything Garage Therapy do is bloody awesome 👌

One could argue that SRP and Sonax BSD are the only paintwork care products that you really need to make a car look 100x better than the rest sitting at Tesco's car park. Both tried and true, easy to use products. SRP works really well with a DA BTW. I used it with a Ryobi orbital buffer for the first time back in 2015 on a black car and it looked amazing.

[@ObsessiveCarDetailer]

Hi, good to hear from you, hope all is well. I find these are products that are left in the shade by a lot of KZbinrs, mainly I guess because they are not sent out as freebies so they concentrate on only new products but I often have a look at the back of the shelf to see what great products are still hiding there. I was thinking of getting BSD down for the next video? Have a good Christmas & stay safe

Hiya Martin, great review of both products. You know that I'm a big fan of Autoglym products. I honestly think that it's because they are so old like Turtle wax that people want to brag about the latest products without realising what the likes of Autoglym have done for the detailing world over the years. I cut my teeth some 30yrs ago at a car dealership and they were using Autoglym back then. Sadly I moved out of the Valeting scene but now I just look after my vehicle, Autoglym was the first product I went and re-bought because I knew how good they are and more so I trusted the brand. Let's see if the new companies are still here in 30yrs time???

Yep seldom let you down but in my latest video I think they come up a little short of todays products but great in their time

Now there’s a blast from the past! It must be 25+ years since I used SRP. I used it weekly my old mk2 golf gti; it used to gleam.

Do yourself a favour and apply with a damp cloth and thinly. That will nearly eliminate the dust you mention and make removal easier.

Great review Martin. I think AG products are unfashionable amongst very keen detailers but, the average car owner will still see these products as a bit upmarket compared to, say, basic Turtle Wax products or Simonize. I reckon there are levels of car care from those who might put the car through a scratch machine at Tesco every blue moon right through to keen detailers like yourself. I see AG as being ideal for those who don't aspire to the levels of perfection achieved by the best detailing practices but do like to look after their car. Certainly someone who uses AG products regularly is looking after their better than 95% of car owners.

Great video. Big fan of these products. Would there be any benefit in claying the car first?

[@ObsessiveCarDetailer]

It depends on the condition of your paintwork really. The Super Resin will mask minor swirls and scratches that may be all you need. But if you clay the car then you will undoubtedly introduce more swirls and so most times a car is clayed it undoubtedly introduces minor swirls so then given a machine polish to give the perfection that you look for. Depending on the car, if it is a daily driver then the chances are the super resin will do the trick but if you are looking for perfection the clay and machine polish will be the way to go. Hope that’s of some help. If not then you know how to contact me. Happy detailing

[@petereverest2736]

I use the super resin all the time but have not tried the extra yet

[@ObsessiveCarDetailer]

Hi Peter, I find the gloss gives it that little bit of extra durability. Happy new year

[@Zulek85]

One more question. When should I use Super Resin Polish? Every time before Extra Gloss Protection? Only on paintwork with haze/swirls or also on healthy paintwork? Will it clean paint like cleaner products? Will putting EGP on top of SRP increase gloss or it doesn't matter?

[@ObsessiveCarDetailer]

No need to use it every time just when you are looking to cover swirls and the I think it best to strip all protection off and then apply srp and you can then use any wax or sealant on top

[@dogbite5509]

I've found it is much easier to remove EGP if you leave it around 10-15 mins. Those were the instructions on the Liquid Hardwax bottle - the trade version of EGP. Also its better to remove when you spread it as thinly as you can. You don't get much dried, spent product that way.

[@ObsessiveCarDetailer]

No real issue removing it just a little dusty

[@dogbite5509]

@@ObsessiveCarDetailer Thank you for another great video. These products are less fussy about prep but to get the best from them, you need to do a decontamination of the paintwork. However, as you say, the average guy in the street buys them to make the car look good, It does that in spades. Use these after a full decon and machine polish correction and they hold their own against more modern products more than adequately.

[@ObsessiveCarDetailer]

@@dogbite5509 totally agree👍

[@Zulek85]

Hello. Can you tell me, do I need to use any cleaner/eraser/ipa before renewing/extra layer of EGP? Or they will strip of existing layer so just wash car in neutral szampoo?

[@ObsessiveCarDetailer]

It all depends on what you want to achieve. If you want to remove any protection from the car then yes you will need to decontaminate the paint using a decon wash, tar remover, fallout and a panel wipe. But if all you want to do is top up the existing protection then all you need to do is wash and reapply. Hope that helps

In terms of a new motorcycle would you advise using these for paint and then anti corrosion for the non painted metal (i was thinking bilt hamber atom mac or xcp rust blocker) just want to get it protected well from the start. Cheers

[@ObsessiveCarDetailer]

Hi, I have ceramic coated the paint work on my Harley although that’s not a necessity you could use any wax or sealant. When I wash the bike I use a spray on rinse off sealant as that tends to get in all the nooks and crannies. I wouldn’t worry too much about rust protection on a new bike. Hope that’s of some help

Hello Nigel, try Aytoglym Fast Glass to remove it from plastic mate👍

[@Audittr2108]

I think where Autoglym suffers a bit is when people get into detailing, they cast aside the stuff they used from places like Halfords and get the brands from specialist sites. They won’t use Autoglym as they think of that brand as the stuff their dad uses and now they’re a detailing enthusiast use exciting SiO2 products etc from brands the average person in the street hasn’t heard of. Autoglym do some great products so it’s unfortunate. I used to use this combo on my old 1972 MGB Roadster that I had in the early 90’s (not that I’m old!)

[@ObsessiveCarDetailer]

Hello Paul, you have read my mind. I have been thinking of doing a video on bug removal. In my experience the best way to prevent dead bugs from being a problem to remove is to have good quality protection on your paintwork. So a good decon wash, remove any tar and iron fallout, wipe over with a panel wipe and then a quality sealant topped with a good quality wax and a quality QD that will act as your sacrificial layer. after every wash reapply the QD. Bugs will then be able to be removed with the wash process. Hope that of help

Hi, someone applied detailing product on my steering wheel and its been extremely slippery which is dangerous because sometimes it slipped out of my hand, it's been like this for about a year and don't know what to do, it's leather. How do I get rid of the slipperiness and make it normal or mildly sticky again?

Hello Darren, not really mate other than like most products don’t apply to a hot panel. Just follow the instructions on the bottle and you will enjoy a great finish.

[@darrenmicklewright2008]

Wow the water behavior with this combo is great 👍. When washing a week later the water from the hose just hits the car and runs straight down and off, and after rain or a damp night the beads are as good as any wax but the surface is more sliker so driving at 40mph it just glids of the car taking some dust with it. A cheap easy on/off alternative to waxing
