Thanks guys. Ste666 you can't go wrong with a DAS, a rotary is a different kettle of fish from reading stuff on here.

LOL. Trust me, I didn't want a black car but I ended up with one so you've got to make the most of it. :) If it swirls do it again. Negative tosser. <3

LOL, Paul. <3 You lost the love after you let the LY go?

Tips are that it'll take ages! Also I had a little spray bottle of water to hand for polishing when it was really hot, even though I was in a garage the polish sometimes stiffened up, couple of blasts of water and I was away again. The other thing is use setting 1 first speed wise - a couple of...

All the 50/50s were crap, lighting wasn't great so they just didn't come out when I looked at them on the PC. :dapprove:

Maybe angle of picture. I'll check tomorrow LOL. :o Thanks, Chris and teh JR.

Thanks. LOL... My arm is about to drop off, Karl. You've got no chance. :o

I couldn't find the thuper resin polish. :dapprove: I'll know for next time, cheers. :D Yes, c**ty chops, egg whisk and unicorn seman. <3 Si... Eh? They're just on from when the garage replaced them when I bought it?

I used Menz power finish with the DAS, then afterwards I gave it a coat by hand with Autoglym Ultra Deep Shine, followed by a coat of Dodo Juice Blue Velvet wax. :) Clayton, yes, pretty easy to use. I was apprehensive at first but soon got the hang of it after attempting my first panel. I used...

Thanks, chaps. Very tiring. I think I'll sleep like a baby tonight!

My wrist is killing, Richy! Whole body aches, TBH. Especially my back! The pink sticker is mint. I'm quite surprised it turned out so well in the pictures, it sometimes just looks white in them. The wellies and joggers came off at 10am for shorts and flip flops! It was roasting!

Well after this thread: http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?p=6771301#post6771301 (some shockingly bad before pics in there). I thought I’d post up some whoring pictures in Media too. Quite pleased with myself although absolutely shattered! An afternoon of using the Kestral DAS6...

Well after purchasing a machine polish kit from i4Detailing which arrived a few weeks back, I finally got some time to give it a go. I wasn't sure what to expect really but I'm quite glad I've given it a go myself and to be honest I've surprised myself. It's by no means perfect but it's a...

Will do :D. Thank you. I'll try and remember to take pics.

<3 this I understand. You're my hero. :o Off work tomorrow, getting up early to do it all. Or give it a bash at least. :)

Ok re-read it. I've even got the PDF printed out. Understand the parts regarding knowing when it's worked, what I don't understand is the compound talk... It's straight over my head. Effectively, what I want to know is which polish, which pad, when in relation to what I bought. Perhaps I'm just...

No Forearms. :dapprove: I thought I'd try to learn how to do it myself. :o Yeah, I've been doing my dissertation so avoiding this place all together. Just popped back for some guidance.

Further ahead with my dissertation than I thought I would be at this point, so as the weather is set to be nice this weekend I thought I'd have a crack at machine polishing the swirlbus. The DAS been sat here doing nothing since it arrived a few weeks back. Anyway, I've read through the info...

Absolutely stunning. Mmmm. I want. What a cracking job!

I think because my first ever Clio was so full of crap (rubbish, clothes, shoes, etc.) I've kept my cars since that immaculate. Only thing I have is a M&M keyring round the gear knob from teh Americaz. Is there a little bit to the right of the steering wheel in 200s as there was with 197s...

Not too bad, although not my personal taste. Probably look better when centre is done too. Dash needs a clean. And the car needs a declutter. Ducky and Darth (?) need to go.

Has to be a piss take. If you sold one because you didn't get on with it why bother buying a LY 182 which will cost you a lot more than the Arctic. TBH, your 182 was either s**t/fucked and you knew it so passed it on to someone else, or you genuinely didn't like it in which case what's the...

It'll be the tracking if you notice it massively - mines pulling on the 182 and I refuse to get it aligned because if you hit a pothole it'll knock it out again. But by the sounds of it, the dealers probably could've sorted it now. If its only a tiny amount they all tend to do it a little. Any...

You must spend a fortune on stickers. <3

http://www.birchdown.com/timing.html It will have required it's aux belt doing at 36k. If you're lucky they'll have done that and possibly the cam belt too - but that is the same as 172/182 reqd at 72k miles - it's not far off that, but obviously it doesn't technically need it yet. You won't...

I bet it isn't bad on fuel. Thing is, depending on what you use it for and how many miles you put on it, would you get a good amount if you sold it on? It's cheap. And as long as it's got FSH I don't think there's cause to be worried. Just test it properly and look it over for the usual 197...

Standard? Good God, I'd be requesting they take those off before purchase. Although I imagine they add 10bhp.

LOL. Nooo, I know Scott too well, he had an accident in his rep. Tinner is his name, maybe?

I can't remember your name but I know you're on here. Had a private plate. You took a good look. LOL. :o
