Nah, me either mate. Wasson?

JD or Toby - would you recommend me touching up all chips / scratches prior to polishing my entire car or polishing the car to see what comes out and then subsequently touching up and wet sanding? Option 2 seems to make more sense?

Most quality shampoos, diluted correctly, will make sure that any existing protection is left in tact. It's when people don't read the dilution instructions and mix too much shampoo in that it effectively becomes a degreaser and strips wax.

I've seen some amazing transformations on DW in repairing scratches and the process seems the same as with stonechips - clean out, fill with paint, fill again, wet sand back and machine polish. General consensus seems to be that nobody else will be able to see the repair but you will, as you...

I've been using Supernatural for the past 12 months and wouldn't hesitate using it again. I always end up changing my shampoo when I run out though so will probably try something different soon - maybe the Auto Finesse range.

Re: What have you ordered? EP800 and MF set? Nice. :)

Looks great mate, DA on BMW paint is always going to be a tough slog! Have you thought about trying the new Megs DA Microfibre system? Meant to be great. Still, a massive improvement and has certainly added value.

Re: What have you ordered? Decided to move on from the DA by picking up a Silverstorm rotary - I know there's better machines out there but I'll only be using it once or twice a year tops, so it'll do what I need it to. Think I'll be getting the Werkstat kit soon once I need to replenish some...

It wasn't a million years ago that I cleaned my cars with a single bucket, stinking sponge, crunchy old chamois and tipped the water over the paintwork at the end. I then proceeded to apply my Halfords wax with an old torn t-shirt. The Internet is a comparatively new invention and the...

'Less is more' is one of the foundation rules of detailing Jordi. The reason it's hard to get off is because it's curing in massive lumps. It's wax, it goes hard when it's cooled, which is does when you're not handling it. It needs to be thin.

4 years of build up will definitely need claying if it hasn't been already. I try and do it at least once a year.

Quick detailer isn't wax. Sounds like you need to try a new spray sealant, something like Werkstat Acrylic Trigger.

Depends what condition your paintwork is in. SRP is a filling polish, so if your paint looks swirly after the wash, it'll still look swirly after the EGP.

Having used a rotary on the odd occasion, my experience is that common sense prevails. If you keep on checking the heat of the panel, keep the rotary moving and be aware of how easy it is to catch an edge that you should be fine. You need to also be aware of the damage you can do. For the cost...

How does the CYC EP800 compare to a Sim180 or Silverline? Tempted to get back into the machine game now I have a car I actually wouldn't mind making look nice, but none of this DAS rubbish.

I roll nekkid. No issues with any case or bumper but it's just better without.

Curved glass. Yeah, that'll remain intact for a long time... The square edge of the 4 pisses all over the previous generations. Seems odd to go back to a curved design but keeping the aluminium centre may maintain a higher quality feel to the old plasticky iPhones.

Not to the German barge owner they aren't. He'd rather be 0.2 seconds to 60 slower whilst sat in his heated leather seats, listening to his iPod, which is sat in his pocket connected to his stereo via Bluetooth, enjoying the fact he doesn't have to feel every little bump and doesn't have to...

Because the sheet is actually two sheets, over each eye.

Fit the Image's, jack it up and down and then take photos before the springs have settled again. Then post it as your completed project on Ed38.

I did 59mpg back from Wales in my big, comfy, quick(ish) Bora. You need to beat that to make this a worthwhile purchase.

To be fair, it's the opinion of 99% of the population.

Nice colour. Are we seeing you tomorrow?

Sorry mate, I didn't see your location so thought you were saying that the police in the UK were pricks compared to foreign ones, who were good for letting people drive drunk! I'm in agreement!

Yeah, awesome Police officers let a drunk bloke carry on driving so he can smash into a child crossing the road. I hate that our coppers, whilst sometimes being a bit pedantic, actually do their job most of the time... :)

The free games were fine for me, took an age to download though. Sorted my sound out; had it set on 5.1 running through my TV speakers.

Not sure if it's connected, but I downloaded my free games last night and I've lost all commentary on FIFA! Also, the speech on Infamous is REALLY quiet; I have to turn on subtitles. Any ideas? It's doing my head in...

Defo keeping it mate? Any updates on your plans (career, life, house.. not car!)?

Mmm, roasted headlight.

FFS.
