THANK YOU! Looks good mate. And yes, RMG and Vics is a great combo, shame it just doesn't last more than about 2 months! Looking forward to Amigo and Glasur in comparison.

So what exactly are you asking? Because at the moment, I don't know whether it's your wash technique, your polishing (and guessing you don't either as you don't sound sure about the results?) or whether something/someone has damaged your car while it was tucked away?!

Yes the paint is hard. You'll get somewhere with a DA but it will need a lot of patience. You'd be able to stay on top of the swirls with a DA but a full correction is likely to take several passes. Mine was in a state, and like yours is a colour that shows every little mark. I'm glad I've...

So are the swirls from washing, the last time it was polished, since it's been in the garage or...?!

More G101. As Kev has made me wonder if I have enough left!

Again, my CYC order came on time, correct contents and well packaged with a note from Tim thanking me for my order. I've actually never experienced an issue with any detailing supplier!

Saw you in a picture and felt genuinely sad. FCS 07/08 feels like years ago. A wait it is!

f**k me. I think even Silent_scone would agree that 3 hours of cleaning my arches would have been a better use of time.

Anytime, pop me a PM. Detailing the car next weekend (properly, wheels off etc) and intending to bring all my stuff back down.

Yarp yarp, Mrs lives in Purley at the moment. There each weekend.

Lol, you're not miles away actually, where in Surrey?

Mate you know this is getting insane now. That's twice. Were you at The Unit? Still haven't met Tom and keen to actually talk to him, rather than laugh at the occasional blunt remark. I know he does. The RS is actually the cleanest in the world, even cleaner than Paul's!

I still like Roy's original "alien spunk" comments. Ah how Gally and I laughed.

Yeah, taking it a little too seriously for Friday PM, hence changing my post to a Dodgeball quote!

I'll wait for your reply. And in the meantime, I'll wash my car. Perhaps. Shirley. Maybe?

Oh, I don't think I'm a lot dumber than you thought that I think that I thought that I was once.

What else could it be down to? If you were perusing PistonHeads, what would make you go see a car - a photo of a s**t box, dirty car in a farmer's yard or a clean car with decent photos? Exactly. Detailing is a hobby of mine, so earnings are not relevant from a cost per hour perspective. Last...

I use to wash my car every 3 days. I sold a 2002 clio 1.2 for a grand more than it was worth. Am I a wacko?

Just to point out, by cleverly bumping this thread it is likely appear higher in Google searches...!

Put it this way, I don't have this issue. And I also don't have creased shirts pre ironing!

Yes, read up on the lay and you'll find the answer ;)

Yes. That or the I4D Lime as posted above.

Lol chappppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppers, missed your post.

Cheers all. And Scrooge, I'll PM you now lad.

You're clothes do the same as they are spun and crammed together. What do you do wen you remove items from the washing machine? Because I shake the living daylights out of them to prevent creases and make it easier to iron. Do the same.

Holy thread bump. And you're talking about DW I presume?

Yeah, tried that last time. Was getting through IronX like champers!!! I'll just keep working it this time. Bought 1000ml refill pack and have Shinearama round the corner if necessary. Just thought an acidic cleaner might be a good start.

Yeah I know but I've diluted it before to work on some family cars' wheels. I can't at the moment as just don't have the time or the urge to get them powder coated.

True. I'd thought about AG Cleans Wheels and Wonder Wheels, purely for the bite.
