What pad you use JMR? Ive only got Menz power finish 203s and Menz Final Finish 85 which came with the kit but was told by Polished Bliss that it is capable to correct VW paint with as he had a few times before. This is the kit I bought...

Does look stunning, Supernaturual always gives a nice finish whenever ive borrowed my brothers pot, I might have to try supernatural next time I use the machine polisher as I have only used it when hand polishing and see how that looks

Lol, no worries, everyone has an opinion, some people like the car and a few have said they arent too keen on the wheels etc but its something different from the "norm" on here and I prefer it as it gives it a bit of colour as im not a big fan of the stealth look. Ive got older pictures but...

Yeah, I did enjoy the whole process and is something new I have learnt to do so all in all Im happy. My mum is going to let me have a go at her VW Golf next which will be a different story as I have read they have hard paint so will be something else to enjoy and learn. Used Collinite Marque...

Well, this is how the car stands after a machine polish the other week and an application of Poorboys Blackhole yesterday. Only a quick few pics from one side but it gives the idea of how the car looks. Still the odd swirl but for a first attempt I'm happy.

For anyone interested, the problem was something with the front headlight. Josh at Cliospares sorted me with a new one (well second hand) and we think that the connection from the connector to indicator is screwed basically

Yeh will do, thanks Kris

One of Feirnys pictures and one of Dans (Ipodsandguns) pictures of mine as a slight idea.

By the looks of things, its something to do with my headlight on that side as tonight i noticed my front indicator doesnt work what so ever but everything else does. Could this possibly have a knock on effect to the rest of that side though?

Of late, the cars right hand side indicators seem to be playing up. Ive changed all indicating bulbs round the car but when I indicate right, it indicates as normal for 4-5 times then speeds up and down with the indicating click not staying the same speed either. When I use the hazards to...

As the car stands after the machine polish, not the best camera used and has been driven for 2 days since I did it so a bit dusty now. Nice deep scratch in the middle of the door :dapprove: Sorry if the pic is too big.

Pearl black I waint have time till next week to attempt it anyway so I think I will APC it as I'll have more time to attempt it properly. Thanks for the info anyway Gally

Thanks for the reply Gally, I hav been reading on detailing world about BH and some of the reviews and pictures do make it look a good product. As i said, I havent got full correction so hopfully using BH will cover the remaining ones that I struggled with. People have said it looks way better...

Basically, I did my first detail on my car the other day with a machine polisher. The results seem quite good and im pleased with my first effort but didnt get all the swirls removed like I was hoping. (Ill post pics soon) I was going to use Poorboys Blackhole to help cover the remaining...

You got pics of it on 182 wheels as i know they dont have a lip like the 172 wheels do? Bet it was even harder than mine to get right lol

Thanks for the reply richy, I was thinking about getting Collinite but read its mainly for durability throughout the winter months whereas something else might be better for the summer weather but if Collinite is still as good for a glossy shine I'll go with that.

I got them done here, http://www.topmarquesuk.co.uk/Gallery-Price-List/ Its the PC Anthracite I got on that list but you would have to ring them and ask about colour code as I have no idea. Sorry

Was waiting for this post. Saw your car the other day at work and instantly knew the cup spoiler was on. Looks so much better I think with the cup spoiler on.

Just need some quick guidance on a few products I am going to purchase to detail my car. I am looking at: Wash Mitt- http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/washing-and-drying/eurow-sheepskin-wash-mitt/prod_452.html Drying-...

Stu, hope you dont mind me using this thread rather than starting another one with similar issues. Fitted an aftermarket steering wheel a few week ago and the usual tc, abs and serv lights come on. Thought it was the steering angle sensor but had that replaced today but the light still comes...

More like a cross between your old two;)

Anthracite

10mm. I first used 6mm which basically just looked like it sat on the lip whereas the 10mm fold round the lip which in my opinion looks better thanks and no its not really that easy to get off as I tried before when I replaced the 6mm with 10mm Thanks Morg, cup spoiler is on now which...

Ill be out unless you guys are still there after 6, dont finish work till 5.30. :(

Had a read of a few threads and got lots of diffferent information but think this could be slightly different. For a few days ive had the TC and SERV light coming on after different lengths of time driving. Today though, i noticed that the TC light was flashing as i took a bend at a steady...

Yeah, thats the probably the one im thinking of, I went airbourne over it and ended up scraping the splitter, but could/would only do it heading towards Leek as its not far off a corner going the other way. Always made sure I drove to Uni that way when it was nice as they were good roads

Wasnt between Leek and Longnor by any chance was it, just off A53 heading towards Longnor?

I am only 21 and its a "D" rated postcode

My renewal has just come through this morning aswell Tim, im looking at £1700 for it with brentacre through their renewal but ive rang around so far and only 2 companies have been able to beat it, Sky has come back at £1550 but Greenlight has just emailed back with £1150. Going to ring them...
