at least its all off now though, should only need a quick wash at the show, jack it up and a quick wash around the arches to get rid of the loose dirt and then a nice polish
at that dub show we was at, my mates car who i was in hadnt been washed since september, took it there, gave it a...
funny how we cant delete our/other peoples posts for no reason when we feel like it though, just cos no one agrees with us.
one rule for some and another for others.
ok thanks.
thought the wax was going to be real awkward to work with as it was quite 'solid' in the tin
couple of rubs with the applicator pad and it turns into butter. quality.
took the cover to local bodyshop - spraybay racepaint
they painted it, cut the 2.0 16v out of vinyl, stuck it on, then laquered over it all
so the stickers wont peel off when i polish it :)
cost me 40 quid :)
theres a fair bit of deer round here
i flew down this road and a deer was just stood at the side of the road staring across a field.. i was praying that it didnt run out infront of me at 60+

aluminium oxide paper 40/80 grit
then wet n dry for ages
200,400,800,1200,1500
then autosol metal polish
then that brilliant metal polish

ive got that gold class liquid wax, but its just like super resin but doesnt seem to last as long and is a lot harder work to use than super resin.
didnt mean engine&machine cleaner for the engine..
it cleans wheels and under arches BRILLIANTLY. just agitate it...
quik clay and the car wash get my thumbs up
think you would have been better getting some AG super resin, AG engine & machine cleaner and some good carnauba wax instead of the wheel cleaner and liquid wax personally.
dont think you have much chance of the weather being good tomorrow. its...
