@leecannon-miller4742 3 года назад

I have had good results on older clear coat with a hairdryer!

@davidneale530 3 года назад

I remember a few years back when they revealed they'd researched it properly and found it was the texture of the dropping leaving an imprint on softened clear coat rather than 'etching'. (Worst I had was just from an afternoon at the beach, even cleaned asap) Good to see they now have a user-friendly way to at least try and reverse the process. Even if it doesn't fully work every time, if you then need to remove less clear to finish the job that's a good thing isn't it? Another thought, the worst damage is going to happen in the hotter months, so that's the best time to use it, while the sun is getting the panel hot for you to begin with.

@Mxracer6y Год назад

correct... hair dryer takes them out

@tzeyangchua7908 3 года назад

I decided to give this a go after watching your review. 75% chance seemed good enough for me. I had two 50p sized bird poop marks on my boot, put the pack on as per the instructions, left it and came back and the marks were still there like on your failure result. However a quick 10 second hand polish with Super Resin Polish on a microfibre and they came straight out. These were two marks that I'd previously attacked with Meguairs Ultimate Compound + Dual Action and wouldn't budge, I thought a wet sand was going to be in order and this was my last resort. So the fact its gone without cutting into my clear any further is a top result.

John dear sir, they are some shipping or patent laws that ( i am not 100% sure in details) if you put the label , you have some discounts on shipping, also some hazardous listed material can be listed of hided much different in the sds sheet, also with this label brands can protect much more their patent of the products and some other similar reasons why they put label. I know for example that huge ceramic coating brands ,when they put proffecional use only they can hide some sio2,ti02 percenatges from the sds sheet.

@johngatland 3 года назад

Hi Jon, It would have been interesting to have used your thermometer on those heatpacks to see what the required temp was, that way using a heat gun you would know what your max temp should be. Perhaps try the heatgun on a scrap panel with etchings and finish off with that small rotary plus srp as that would introduce more heat again. I wouldn't buy it as much too expensive for me as I am so tight. All the best

@jonbrown6352 3 года назад

I had a nasty etching on the soft paint of my GT86. Ended up wet sanding to get rid of the small mark but this looks fascinating. I've seen videos of people blasting the area with hot air from a heat gun or hair dryer, is this the same theory of melting and 'remoulding' the clear coat? EDIT - Just saw your conclusion, should have watched until the end before commenting.

Giving this product some thought. Knowing the John said this product melts the lacquer, which fills the damage the birds dropping have left behind. Thinking about this, I’m wondering if it could do the same with scratches that cut into the lacquer. Just a thought. Keep safe everyone.

Is there any treatment I shouldn't use as I'm wondering if it would strip the paid-for 'Williams' paint treatment. Or is it just a gimmick? Cheers. Dave

My question is, is it worth it or am I on a lost cause. The bird poop went dry and hard as I was away at work at the time so the etching is quite bad and being black is VERY noticable.

Had my bonnet repainted 2 weeks ago. Came back to the car after work to find seagull shite on the bonnet. Cleaned the car as soon as I got home and noticed etching afterwards. Gave this Autoglym reflow a try and it was useless. Did nothing at all. Also tried the heat gun method afterwards and did nothing. Also tried compound and polishing by hand but didn't shift the stain. Next step a light wet sand and machine polish...

@AutoglymUK 3 года назад

Sorry to hear your freshly painted car is already marked by bird dropping. also sorry to hear that in this instance, Reflow did bot fix it for you. We note you tried a heat gun after that also didn't fix it - this is something we discovered during the research for this product too - if Reflow doesn't fix it, a heat gun won't either. It is a mark that heat cannot remove whichever method you use.

Oh wow, they are using MRE cooking bags. You can get those for like £5 comes with a complete meal too !.

My word!!, they are charging £40 for some MRE cooking bags. Save yourself £35 and just get the real thing. Must show this to @bigclive

so the reflow bag is 30 quid for 5 applications 6 quid an application. Of course its using the same tech. But they have to recreate bespoke packaging for it and fasteners, printing etc nothing is free and they do all this in house. Its not going to be the same price as the camping heater cooking bags is it? maybe autoglym have used larger quantities of the heating granuals inside it, maybe its been tweaked to heat higher or lower and for different times?? maybe it is not and the MRE bag will work? there will be guys like you that look at things like this and dismiss it which is fine. But there will be other people out there that might have high value cars that have this problem and can use the kit to solve the problem and save themselves a lot of money. put yourself in the mindset of someone that loves there car and needs to solve this problem are they going to go and strap a MRE cooking bag on the side of the car or this kit from autoglym that cost then like a tener extra or something.

this product uses the same product as the military use for heating up the rations. the best way to do the same thing is to use just a normal heat gun. its very expensive to use this autoglym product you can get a cheep heat gun for about the same price. Also you are better useing a heat gun so you can regulate the heat going onto your pannel better the autoglym will juts heat and heat your car pnnal and thats not a good idea. its called Re-Flowing also if you have the heat gum you can use it too blacken your old black plastic trim. so cool idea autoglym but your better off with a heat gun.
