Kevin S you are very thorough! Excellent job Sadly I have some lacquer peel similar to Donny's on the drivers door pillar :( What could you do about that?

Really like that with the anthracite/yellow details. Nice job there aswell. Can I ask how do you get the stripes when detailing the interior??

Such a minter. Fletcher it seems that you always going out on random drives to cure boredness lol!

Go black (Hammerite Smooth). See if you can get hold of a trolley jack and an axle stand, jack the one side up, support it on the axle stand then remove the wheel. As has been side, quick going over with a wire brush, then paint with 1 inch or similar brush, then once painted leave for...

In future Russ, for that sorta thing get down to Karparts in Aldridge and they'll do it all free for you lol

LOL!

nice thread TITle

Gonna be a right sleeper! You're gonna have some fun there!!

Love seeing details like this on old/standard cars. Excellent work mate I reckon you've probably added quite a bit in value to that :)!

Wisely chosen list there :approve:. You might want to look at a glass cleaner/polish of some sort to deep clean them after all the motorway miles you;ve been doing. Oh and don't forget tyre gel ;) Its endless honestly this detailing malarky

Awful wheels but great work

"Subway" on here had those I think

Boosh= my inspiration :o x Nice one OP!

One of the best looking non sports on the site! You're a right wheel wh.ore though :rasp: !

Nice one, love it. That beauty above (his old one) is in the midlands now I see it most days

Sell them me when you're done with them!

Do you work at a petrol station then? Car looks great on those MK3 wheels!

Clearkote quickshine works wonders for me

Got great potential there, and you seem to have all the right ideas so I'll keep tabs on this one :)

Flame red with gloss black wheels Seen you parked outside today, also a few times in Aldridge, car looks smart :)

Tardis/ AG tar remover does the job on tar spots...yes clay does all of the above but can leave behind marring which, if you dont have access to a machine polisher, is hard to get rid of was my point

Hello, welcome

Hi and welcome

I personally think claying is a bit gimmicky I only think claying is worthwhile if you're following it up with a machine polish as it has caused marring in my experience even when being careful, which is hard to remove by hand. Even then once or twice a year, if the car is regularly washed...

Don't be silly. On those wheels, stay silver

Do the boot release button instead

Awesome machine

A friend of mine who buys Autosmart in Bulk reckons Mirror Image is what you want if you're tackling swirls by hand. Going by hand of course will never give you the same levels of gloss nor correction but that might be worth a go

I'd sell the lights off first and foremost they are unnecessary and will help generate a few funds for the parts you need that Ed has mentioned above

Love standard 172's
