Good boy daisy.
Do the leather first. Try to keep the alcantara dry whilst you do the leather. Use masking tape if you have too. The leather is idiot proof but you can quickly f**k up the alcantara.
Good raceglaze alcantara, plenty of advice etc. use minimal amounts, the tip is to keep it from...
Leather (faux leather in clio's case) a mild all purpose cleaner or dedicated leather cleaner,soft shoe brush and microfibre.
alcantara you need raceglaze alcantara cleaner an brush and mf cloth.

My dad had a Brand new black RS fiesta when they first came out ( along with most of the other RS's from that era). people used to look it it like it was an out of space vessel! Lol
Not as much as they did with 3 door cossies mind!
Thats is proper mint and I want! Maybe Not at that price!
Hi mate.
Not allowed to say who I am lol or the scary admin people will come knocking again ;) however I know about CarPro finest ;) anyway can I ask when Finest was applied, wasn't long ago was it?
Finest is a ceramic sealant coating. The coating needs to be kept very clean to keep up its...
Like Gally said its up to you, you can get a nice result with what's listed however its obviously not the same as machining. If you do buy a polisher don't forget the pads, you won't need a backing plate as it comes with one (ep801)
Btw Kev I was joking ;)

Gally=useless!! ;)
Poorboys black hole to 'mask' defects and make it semi shiny or its just good old fashioned elbow grease (machine polishing ). Black fire is a brand and black light is a glaze. What products do you have?

Ford have gone for a traditional hot hatch recipe. Renault are trying something new, kind of a coupey hatch, Kind of like the RS megane i guess. Change can sometimes be for good. Simply you want old skool get the Ford, otherwise something a little different then it's the garlic powered one. Or...
Yeah they are better in the focus. No doubt they are very supportive and comfy, they just look like a power rangers cod peice! ;)
how is the Foci mate?
Dan makes sense. I sincerely hope Renault don't f**k It up with poor electronics etc.
on a side note, saying renault only have to map the gearboxes is still worrying. Ford donated Jaguar ZF boxes, tried and tested but in their effort to smooth it out with their maps they fuckwd it up. Warranty...
Do you realise the cover has sections cut out. The inlet manifold then 'Pokes' through, which is what you can see. The inlet manifold can also be painted or polished to finish the look.

Nice idea, alternatively I use the hockey puck pad! You cut the middle section out of a puck and it makes a universal pad for most cars, limits damage. I use it on all my customers cars where I can, far better than a piece of wood etc.
heres a link to a picture I shamelessly stole! ;) cut out...
Bilt hamber is your friend. Look at there range, they have products to eliminate rust, and paints that coat in zinc to prevent rust in the future. Simply anything these guys make is superb.
