I will take the review first:

Surf City absolutely Aluminum perfect polish:

So, I have a Audi Allroad, and it have alu on some places, like you can see on the pictures. Also used metal dressing, after the polish.

I could see a difference after the polish, it got brighter and more smooth. I used a mf to polish it on, and buffed it off with a mf. I diden`t let it dry anything. It was a bit thin, but I liked it! A good products, I have nothing to compare it with, but I will keep this one!

Next is Surf City Maximum metal perfect polish:

Used this on my roof rails and exhaust tips! Just look how shine they are, and this is a diesel to! Also used metal dressing on the rails.

Before on rails:

This product is great! i have used NXT metal polish before, but I think this is better. Cleans up easier, and are more easy to use. And If you top he metal polish, with the metal dressing, you have a winner!! ;) Great products both!!

Next is the Surf City voodoo blend leather rejuvenator:

This products smells and look the same as Pinnacle leather conditioner (that is one of my fav products) And it looked like to do the same thing on my seats! So I love this product to!! Worked great, and gave the leather a nice apperiance! Not to shiny.

Before: (3 weeks since I used pinnacle leather conditioner on them)

Car looks great, Pirex! Thanks for the SCG review. Looks like Trixie was helping you already. Guess she was inspecting the undercarriage. Has she "marked" your tires yet?:D

First of all thank you for that review bro. I enjoyed your write up and the pictures are great :righton: really show's the difference. The one that truly insterest me are the metal polish stuff, the leather product I'm set on what I have but the metal polish is something I've been looking for for quite a bit. I've been using P21S Polishing Soap and it works great, really happy with it but hoping to soon get the Wolfgang Metal polish system

As for the vehicle, looks great bro. Just curious, one head light seems to be a different colour compared to the other. I know that the lighting system on the Audi's seems to play tricks on the visual effects but just thought I'd ask.

Oh by the way you got a cute dog bro...thanks for sharing
