    Ford Fiesta Zetec S & an Audi A3 2.0 TDi

    Audi A3 2.0 TDi Pre-Sale. I was contacted to see if I could spruce the A3 in readiness for a private sale within the next few weeks. Being a fairly local job I was able to squeeze it in over the Bank Holiday Weekend. Product • 3M Glass Cleaner • AutoSmart G101 • AutoSmart Tardis •...

    Ford Fiesta Zetec S & an Audi A3 2.0 TDi

    Ford Fiesta Zetec S Having been subjected to several bodyshop visits within the last year or two, the Fiesta was in need of a good tidy up. The work was carried out on the owners’ car whilst they were away – not a bad surprise to come home to, hey? Product • 3M Glass Cleaner •...

    Theres your obvious PolishedBliss but if they're too prices and/or busy, might be worth trying Ultimate Shine. Google is your friend :)

    Porsche Carrera 4 S - Citroen C3 (Interior only)

    :approve: I wouldnt say I know what I'm doing! I'm over 2 hours away from your location which is a shame.. But a single day works for a paint correction can vary anywhere between 100 / 250 dependant on he/she that does it. Depends on severity of defects and % of correction required. Putting a...

    Best glass cloth ?

    lol. Easy tiger.. Maybe I'll catch up with the latest later on. Never got on with these for Glass - I use something similar and they seem to leave tiny bits of lint on glass? Use for everything else exterior though! :)

    Porsche Boxster S & Audi RS2 - Protection details

    Porsche Boxster S & Audi RS2 - Protection details

    VW Bora - Enhancement (Ads_172)

    Interesting to see the tests on the bonnet - keep us posted RE the durability on the Nanolex side of things. How did you get away with using 3M FastCut+ as a single pass? Or, did you make second refining pass afterwards with a finer combination?

    Audi RS4 - Daytona Grey Pearl

    Thanks Kris. It didn't happen overnight thats for sure! It's all about word of mouth; the only advertising expense I've pushed has been for business cards and vehicle sign-writing... Prior to going live on 6th April 2009, I'd been working as a 'weekend-warrior' 3 years prior to that (working...

    Advice needed

    Aye - having never used one personally, I didn't think they'd be up to much good (otherwise we'd all be using them as oppsed the £50 unit!)

    Advice needed

    I'd pick up a proper lance if I were you mate - one of the £50 jobbies from CYC or similar.

    Audi RS4 - Daytona Grey Pearl

    Awesome response guys - thanks. Fresh paint isn't a worry so long as it's a good job and fully baked! Yeah man, 203s is great. My go to polish for all my "Gloss enhancement" jobs where full correction isnt required. If i had a spare £20k sat around, I would :cool: :approve::o Again...

    Claying?

    A good chance it will make an impact, yes. Might be worth getting a dedicated Tar remover on there first.. Many of the mkiv Golf's that I do (esp. in the lighter colours anyway) collect a yellowing 'stain' around the lower sills and door-jams; merely build-up of road contaminants and crap that...
