I've never been caught down there by anything hanging from a bridge, I have seen a mobile camera van up there once, maybe twice but just wait out the two weeks, I wouldn't be too worried myself though

I always try mezerna/ sonax first but on the last one I didn't seem to get anywhere with them, I'll certainly give them a try first though

I've just had a mercedes C class 'book in' for correction, I'm thinking #105 to cut on an orange hex logic pad, do we think that will do the job? The last mercedes I did was a ball ache.

Yeah mine is never like that haha, I'll probably nail it right at the end of the bottle.

I'm half way through a bottle of it at the moment, I'm not too keen on it myself mainly for the reason you have mentioned, maybe it is just me not getting the dilution right but I'm still to get it as think as my previous hyperwash which also works out a lot better value for money.

What sort of roof is it? My mx5 has a vinyl one and I have just bought some aerospace 303 to coat it in.

That looks fantastic, job well done buddy. I had a 1.6 in what looks to be the same colour, I loved it in the sun. SAM_0227 by theycallmepaul, on Flickr

Those seats look lovely. It will be interesting to see how you get on with this, I quite like them looks wise, no idea what they drive like though.

if it was about quarter past 3 then yes it would have been, I'm up off west drive/ northumberland in cleveleys myself, there's a load of us around here now!

Good buy buddy, where in blackpool are you?

I'm hoping to head down to it buddy, I'm just waiting on work to let me know where I'll be around that time. if I go down you are more than welcome to meet me and follow me down, I'll give you a heads up as soon as I know.

It was all going so well aswell until that point!

Looks awesome that, I love these. Best of luck with it :)

Sod that for a laugh! I was going to get it resprayed but for what they are selling for on ebay there is no point I may aswell just buy one in good condition.

Nice one cheers, I'll pop down and have a gander in a minute then, It's all loose in there anyway so will be a thirty second look, I'll get one ordered if so.

I managed to get a couple of bits and pieces done to the car this weekend. Firstly I painted the sills to keep JoeyD happy. Before: IMG_3979 by theycallmepaul, on Flickr I treated them with some Kurust first underneath/ the rear of them to just be doubly safe: IMG_3984 by theycallmepaul...

jakehamer1994 I just passed you too by shell in town, tried to give you a thumbs up last minute.

My roof is vinyl so it's the same product for me :) I'm assuming your roof is similar to the mohair '5 ones?

Quoting myself like a cool kid. I've just bought some 303 aerospace protectant so will give that a try, it will come in handy for my engine bay too :)

What do people use for cleaning soft tops? I'm pretty sure my mx5's roof is vinyl but I have no idea what to try on it, google seems to bring up all sorts of rubbish.

Some brilliant spots there, some lovely motors rolling around London.

I'm pretty sure it is on here, I remember reading a progress thread for it :)

I totally agree, I had the use of one from work for a while and it didn't work for me at all. I can imagine the fiesta/this engine combo works very well but the focus just felt underpowered for motorway cruising, it always seemed to full of turbo lag, and as you say wasn't great on fuel.

Ahh sweet okay thanks, I'll crack on and try it then I guess!

@JoeyD did you do your sills in the satin or smooth black? I picked up a second tin of smooth black today for the sills but I think I'll go and swap it for a tin of the satin. I did my wipe arms in the smooth and it turned out quite glossy so I think the sills would look a bit dodgy in it.
