I've more than enough BSD for now


ECP can't have any more of my money lol

Anyone try Carplan No1 Super Gloss out yet? waiting on mine to arrive in the post

 

[Brian1612]

Waiting on the verdict myself

 

[kvn618]

Has anyone received theirs? Mine is on the back order, was hopping to do side by side test this weekend against BSD and Protect+Shine Hybrid but will have to wait a little bit longer.

 

[Bigpikle]

nope - nothing here. Not even received any emails from ECP either but they did take Paypal payment. Not really bothered about it now frankly and shouldnt have ordered it, so if I end up cancelling it might be a blessing!

 

[barry75]

Same here haven't received mine,
Got this email from Euro Car parts do

Just had an email from DHL but don't know if it's the Super Gloss or the wash bucket I ordered at the same time, that's on it's way

 

[Bigpikle]

I've still not heard zip since ordering, so sent a bit of a stroppy email to ECP asking for some form of order confirmation.... lets see.

Any thoughts/comments about my plan to use this as a drying aid?

Halfords web page mentions drying first...

Once you have cleaned and dried your car with your chosen method, simply spray CarPlan No1 Super Gloss..."

Wondering if I'm barking up the wrong tree?

 

[Bigpikle]

I dont think anyone here has yet used it, so not sure you'll get an answer yet? You may be fine, and remember most of these standard retail brands write simple instructions aimed only at the bloke in the street scrubbing his car on Sundays, or you may find its a product that really doesnt like application with water and smears like a wotsit etc etc?

Once some eventually arrives on doorsteps I guess people will start showing reviews as always and then there'll be a thread saying "Is Super Gloss the new BSD..." and the usual hype and arguments will start and then another product will come along again.....rinse.....repeat....rinse.....repeat.....

Cynical...moi? Surely not :devil:

I picked up some of this at the weekend.

I had a quick try on the bonnet of the company car - Metallic Red Mondeo Hybrid (having washed but not clayed or deconned first). If definately improved the overall appearance and added gloss, although i did need to work hard to fully remove - so i would recommend spray spread and immediately remove, i had to apply more and immedately wipe to get a clear finish. It feels glossy and watery on application and not 'grabby' like BSD.

The water (sheeting) behaviour was also very good immediately after application (i dont have the car the whole time so had to do it there and then).

I didnt apply to my own car as I have other products on there, but i did apply it to my very clean alloys and here it looked great and wiped clear easily. I will see what the protection is like in a week or so.

I received an email today, part if which says..

The following 1 piece(s) have been sent via DHL International GmbH on
06/04/2017 on Shipment Number xxxxx xxxxx

Seems mine has arrived at Heathrow, pretty good service for £5.20 and I mean that.

 

[Bigpikle]

mine appears to be coming today.... still no comms from ECP though :lol:

 

[harrylall]

Hi guys I ordered my from ECP almost a week and 1/2 ago...It's still not arrived, and as BigPikle stated I have had no COMMS from ECP either. I have been checking the WEBSITE and I can't see the product either ( Could just be me) anybody else had the same issue ?

AS SOON as i'd written and published the post. I got an EMAIL very similar to SHINE247. DHL are allegedly delivering mine today. I will if I get a chance try it out to tonight and update you. I'm not holding up much hope as CARPLAN products haven't always been the best but for the price, it was worth a punt. I can't see it being anywhere near as good as SONAX BSD, but lets not judge before I have tried.

 

[barry75]

Got the email too saying mine is on the way.

 

[Bigpikle]

arrived so had a little play....

Smells like bubblegum just like Nattys Blue. Washed the bonnet with ONR and sprayed half with this stuff - couple of sprays and a wipe and buff. Dead easy, no smears, not grabby and piece of cake to use. It was on silver and I cant say I saw an noticeable increase in gloss but the car is spotless and ONR leaves a nice gloss anyway on the other side. Smooth rather than slick finish, much slicker than BSD but nothing like OCW or OID or c2v3 'proper' slick. Tighter beading and much faster sheeting than the other side of the bonnet after a quick rinse - better than c2v3. Will give the car a full spray when I wash it later.

So far, for £5 I'm happy with this. Not blown away but frankly I havent really given it a chance to do that on half a silver bonnet....

Mine is out for delivery. I have not bought it to compare with bsd, merely as an extra product. The bottle says you can use it on rubber etc. I will not be putting it on a nicely finished summer look unless I discover it is amazing. The last thing I want is a below par product "designed" to last a year on my paint which I have to remove.

you wont have to remove it - if not impressed then just slap something else on top! I really dont believe it will last anything like a year....

I just do not work like that but each to their own.

Edit... It has arrived
