Aquapel Group Buy III - The return of the gunk

devonutopia · 31-05-2007, 11:48

Well, as it's kicked off again, I'll enquire into 48 and 96. It's just a bit tough sometimes to shell out for 96 without getting it back again fairly sharpish.

sworrall · 31-05-2007, 12:35

as a few have changed to 4 could you confirm what ill be able to get done with 2? one coat on the screen and one on sides or is one on the screen not enough?

With two, it is best to do the screen, then one side window (maybe two if you can push it). Then allow to dry/buff as normal, then do the screen again with the other one, then the opposite side window (maybe two

)

4 merely means you have some spare to do this all again (although it should be 4 months+ before you need to)

What are these like with the rain sensitive wipers? Do they confuse it??

Thanks in advance

You would need to disable them / turn them off. The idea is there is no need at all for wipers. The water runs off the screen using the wind/airflow passing over the car whilst in motion. Rain sensitive wipers will still try to work, so will need turning off.

Well, there's the magic 48.

I have asked for 48 and 96 prices, but had no reply yet. I hope to have some news from tuther side of the pond asap.

Coops · 07-06-2007, 16:27

Over the '48' now

:

OldFlo - 4 = 4
daiking - 2 = 6
skudmissile- 4 = 10
sworrall - 2 = 12
spinndrift - 4 = 16
phlashbios - 4 = 20
Pythix - 6 = 26
Purp23 - 4 = 30
Elegance1.8T - 4 = 34
TaviaRS - 4 = 38
Sonic1980 - 4 = 42
dstev2000 - 6 = 48
Coops - 6 = 54

I know this bumps it over the '48' - hopefully Jason can get others to make up the 96

devonutopia · 07-06-2007, 17:43

I will certainly do my best.

Yet to hear back after initial response from the U.S.

daiking · 19-06-2007, 18:20

Any news Jason?

devonutopia · 19-06-2007, 20:58

Hmm, still no reply.

Shall send them a reminder.

Moose · 23-06-2007, 21:00

So, I'd need 4 to do a saloon car?

Not necessarily, but perhaps it would be recommended to get good coverage on the first hit. You could do the rear side windows then.

I would imagine aquapel would do a good job on a saloon's rear screen given the aerodynamic nature of the car.

If you get 96, I'll take 4

devonutopia · 24-06-2007, 17:27

Just add yourself.

I will be going for that amount, but still no word.

OldFlo · 09-07-2007, 09:34

Any news perchance?

devonutopia · 09-07-2007, 13:15

actually, no there's not.

I'm going to have to consider looking elsewhere.

skudmissile · 09-07-2007, 18:00

Jason just a thought but would this guy be any good? he sells them in 24's on ebay for approx £46 +pp+import tax.
eBay.co.uk: 24 AQUAPEL Auto/Car Windshield/Glass/Window TREATMENTS (item 200125935592 end time 11-Jul-07 16:06:27 BST)

Might be worth asking him if he'd be able to do a deal for more and postage to the uk?

Hi Jason,
Sorry but you are going to have to remove me from this group buy, really want some more of the stuff but just bought a new house so cash is a bit tight from now on in.
