Hey Tim. Great Video. The Polar Seals say 40ml to 200ml because AutoGlym recommend you using no more than 40ml of the product as unlike the polar blast or wash it wont make any difference on the results. If they put it in a ratio form, then the amount of product and water you use is up to interpretation and can bring a less protected effect. Also one capful is equal to 10ml so it`s easy to put four of them in and then 200ml of water.

I would opt for wheels first, personally. The Polar Blast and Wash require no more than half the Polar Snow Blaster capacity and even the 40 ml Polar Seal/200 ml water is more than enough. This is based on a two-seat sports car and (separately) a 4X4. It's worth mentioning that, even with the benfefits of the Polar Blast, there is no substitute for elbow grease during the wash stage. Terrific products, great video, Tim.

Τhe reason Autoglym says 40ml to 200ml water for the Polar Seal on the Polar Blaster is that on the bottle of Polar Seal, Autoglym says that there is no benefit to use any more than 40ml (or four coupfuls) of Polar Seal on your car. So, you can use as much as Polar Blast and Polar Wash as you need for your car but 40ml to 200ml water for the Polar Seal is just enough for every car. Nice video by the way...!

Yes. Found it depends on conditions. I’ve found if dirt builds up, it tends to lose some bead action, as the layer of dirt is preventing it from beading but it’s still there in places. If it’s really wet, it lasts 6-8 weeks. It’s still beading but not as strong. Giving the car a quick once over, I’ve seen the bead remain after a wash with AG shampoo, not as strong when first applied but still there. On the whole, 8-12 weeks or 3-5 washes in my experience.

Hi Tim, a very informative video. Thanks for posting. I just bought the Polar Blast recently and mixed it per instructions and tried using my Karcher with it's bottle - ie not a Polar Blaster. The results are very poor and the foam doesn't shift any dirt. Just wondering, before I go out and buy the Polar Blaster, does yours swing so that the bottle stays downwards? Your comment at 10:20 on the video suggests it does. Mine doesn't. So I'm wondering if my mixture is being further diluted when I'm moving the bottle at different angles when I'm spraying? Any advice you could give would be much appreciated. Many thanks, and best regards. Vivian

My pleasure Vivian, hope you enjoyed it. Yes, the polar blaster is designed to swing on the quick release adapter (I believe the blaster comes with a Karcher adapter in the box), keeping the bottle and mixture upright. What is likely happening with yours is as you move around the car and the mixture is being used, the pipe inside the bottle is being exposed to the air inside the bottle and it is not sucking up mixture, meaning you are effectively spraying water on the car. The Blaster is very good, not only does it have a mixture adjustment on top, but the nozzle end can be adjusted to change the spray pattern. AG's customer service is v good too. My bottle had an issue where it would effectively fall off if it was over tightened. I contacted them and they sent a replacement bottle out in a couple of days. Never had an issue since. I've also tried the blaster with other snow foams and found it always produces a good mix and great coverage. Hope that helps and you consider subscribing to the channel! 👍

@@OurTim Very many thanks for your prompt and very detailed reply Tim. I think your theory is right. I will get the Polar Blaster. On a separate matter, I was very sorry to see what happened to your car. I did comment on that video. And yes, I have subscribed. Kind regards. Vivian

Thing is that, is the first product really working or if you were to use a straight garden hose would the result be the same? Just curious...how if Autoglym would bring back their UHD Shampoo to Canada...as for wheels I've switched and used their Magma ... with my 6 pot Brembo's on my Challenger it's a God send.

100% Polar Blast is working, you can see it getting into the dirt at 3:35 in the video. That dirt was a mix of 8 weeks worth of mud, water, salt and winter grime on UK roads. Washed plenty of cars in the winter over the years and an initial spray down only really wets this mix, doesn't remove much at all. I've used Magma too, awesome product, can imagine its great for getting brake dust off the wheels from 6pots!

Nice review, but Polar Blast is a terrible product - you’d have got a similar amount of dirt off just with a high pressure rinse. Something like Bilt Hamber Autofoam or Touch Less is much better as a pre-wash and has genuine cleaning ability.

I'm slightly confused, do you use the same container for spraying the Polar Wash as you do the Polar Blast? I assume you empty and clean it out before putting the Wash in?
@OurTim
@OurTim Жыл бұрын
Correct, you use the same container for all products, washed out between each use.

Hi mate, great video! I recently bought a Titan 140bar pressure washer from screw fix but struggling to connect it to my foam lance… please can you share the links from eBay you bought the quick releases adaptors from.

The gun itself is the one that came with the power wash, Titan from Screwfix. I had to get a quick replease adapter from eBay to mount the AutoGlym bottle, and then also use some quick release nozzles with the gun/adapter

Depends how dirty your car is, but I would be more inclined to skip the blast if the car wasn’t too dirty. I don’t think this product series lends itself to a complete ‘hands off’ wash

Nope, according to AG, Blast is applied to a dry car and then rinsed before Wash is applied

Sounds like your neighbour doesn't care much for his car... No cleaning will ultimately lead to pour paint condition. At least you are trying. Beads sitting still on a car are not great for the paint, but when you move, they'll soon fall off. Also make it easier to clean in future. Obviously not a problem if you never clean it!
