    Cleaned up my Brothers Kia....

    So I pressure washed the car all over and then applied RDS to the entire bodywork whilst I set to work on the wheels. Used Hot Wheels 50:50 with water and then applied Iton X and had a little bit of bleeding but nothing too bad as I doubt the brakes on a 1.4 Kia are too aggressive. Whilst...

    Cleaned up my Brothers Kia....

    Woke up today and the weather was almost perfect to car cleaning, Warm but not too sunny and had seen my brother yesterday and his car was a state so offered for him to drop it over and I'd clean it whilst he was at work. Time was not on my side as he needs to leave straight after work so only...

    Not to everyone's taste, not 100% mine either lol

    Looks nice but personally I'm not a fan of the grill, It's something I wanted on my Corsa 10 years ago so seems a bit played out now.

    Detailing Chat & Questions Thread

    Hoping someone can help, The black leather seats in the Pug are not wearing as well as the Clios 'leather' seats did, Remember seeing someone using some special pen to almost colour in where the leather had lightened, Think it may have been Chappers but can't be certain. Can someone point me in...

    Iron X. Clean the wheels with a decent wheel cleaner and then give the wheels a couple of hits with Iron X.

    Wheels cleaned and tyres dressed courtesy of the last 2 Waxybox's. Before After washing Very impressed with the wheel cleaner, I didn't use very much and it still did a pretty good job. Would I buy more? That I'm not sure about. All finished Loved the Tyre dressing, Really easy to apply...

    I genuinely think I might buy a bottle of Hubikote when I run out of Lather Really is a lovely feeling shampoo, Feels so slick and the bubbles feel so creamy.

    What the hell is this?

    I've not seen a set of those wheels in a while, Sister had a set on her body kitted Corsa B many moons ago.

    Used it on the fathers car already but that is one uncared for vehicle so not a fair test I suppose but it still felt quite nice. Will give it a go on mine and maybe try out some other waxybox bits whilst I'm at it, I have TC on my car but no wax so not sure what to do, Half a car with the 2...

    My French Pocket Rocket..... well almost

    They are a hoot to drive when keeping under 25mph but then I've only driven a hire car and we all know they are always the best examples of any given model. Seats are just a flat though and I did nearly slide into the passenger seat.

    I want to discuss the new bits god dammit, Better wait until tomorrow though :( Waiting for panel temps to cool before washing the car, Wheels are clean now but won't dress the tyres until I've washed and dried the whole car. To use Hubikote or Lather... Hmmmmmm!

    Need a new wheel cleaner

    I'm a hoarder, I will order C5 at some point and just stash my PB's in a drawer, I have never sold on any cleaning gear even though I constantly buy alternatives.

    Need a new wheel cleaner

    I have the PB Wheel Sealant and its 'ok' but going from what I have seen/read I'd spend the £10 extra. Wish my wheels were in a condition to warrant buying he C5 :(

    Fair enough then, As said keep it subtle and you'll be ok. Don't take offence on a forum either, One this size is going to have a lot of mixed feelings to what you do, It's your car so do as you please at the end of the day.

    My French Pocket Rocket..... well almost

    If it was mine I'd lose the tyre pen, graphics on the side and the Scotland/GB badges off the back. Next steps would be Lower it slightly, Colour code the wing mirrors and door handles and buy some clean new plates. It's the little details that make a car IMO, Easy to go too far with things...

    50% of what you've done is ok. You've got to accept that the C1 forum is likely to mainly be made up of 17-19 year olds with their first cars who will love what you've done, This forum ranges from very young Niall97 to very old Tony so will like different things completely. I had Lexus lights...

    Gonna slap on the tyre dressing from last months box when I next clean the car... Seems to have gone down reasonably well with what I've read.

    I give up looking at the pictures and just guess the same number every week.... Within the next 20 years it should come up trumps.

    How do you clean microfibre products?

    As said just chuck them in the washing machine, Not too sure how they would mess up your washing machine unless you spilled half a bottle polish over the cloths and threw in half a tub of wax for good measure.

    Are you sure that's wise, sir?

    My Sisters boss..... The owner of it all is John Hunt. Think someone linked him via Wikipedia earlier.

    Yes, Well it's mainly his son making the videos.

    I only used this on my Fathers Silver Volvo but it did seem a lovely shampoo. My water is fairly hard and it did seem to counteract that quite a bit.
