    The old dears gone and bumped the R32 into a pillar in the supermarket. I've pc'd the area and it's come up fairly well, but there's still a wee scuff. I.e you can feel it with your nail. Whats the script with wet sanding, i.e is it easy to do, what grit do you use? 1500,2000? I always...

    Polishin pads? Rich/Brazo

    What Pads do you lads use? Been using the Edge pads most of the yr, but after an incident with the 4in pad i'm not goin bak. When i started out i was using the sonus ones, but i didn't rate them, didn't yield the best results. The edge idea is good, you can use 4,6,8in pads on the same...

    ** R32 Detail -Swissvax treatment** Lots of pics!

    Been putting this off for months, but finally my debts were called in. Plus it was a good chance to try some new products. It's my old man's car, 53 plate with 20k miles on it, so you'd think it would be in 1/2 decent condition...Well, it's never ragged, but the paint and over all condition left...

    Rich/Al/Brazo i'm on a spendin spree

    No silly money. (Tryin to order from tim too) I like tryin new things. So suggest away for a full detail. This one's for the old man, so the detail is free, but he's payin for the products. (Call it board and lodgin fee's!) Polishin - Happy with the Menz, But as per my last post, not sure...

    Megs APC

    Is this really strong enough, i've run out of virosol. Seen a boy on DW usin it on wheels and then his seats...I'd be worried that the dilution is too strong. I've got the old mans R32 to do. Arches don't bother me, but the seats are a mess...Don't think i want to use it on them.

    Bit Disappointed! :(

    Refurb'in wheels is a bit hit or miss imo and i think i fcuked this one up! Don't get me wrong i think the job is decent and the new centre caps and grafix look the b****cks, but i don't think the silver is bright enough! Whats everyones opinions? Ali.

    ** No beating Scotland **

    Lets be honest guys, nothing comes close. Grated i'm biased, but even if i lived in 'Engerland' i'd still appreciate this. Anyway, was a bit of an outsider for this jaunt, My old man runs the classic car club up here so i tagged along for a bit of free grub and the roads. Couldn't of asked...

    Gliptone leather care

    Very impressed, got this from Ron @ motorgeek. Previously been using zymol leather and Ag cleaner. Both gave a very fake/greasy look imo. The Gliptone isn't as easy to apply, esp the cleaner, but spend the time and the results are worth it (Could say the same about 99% of detailing) The...
