Pissing me off! What speed should I use it at with Menz 106 and LCC White Pad? Gonna use it then finish with LCC Black Pad. How long work time on say a 1'x1' square? Need to get rid of these holograms/buffer trails/whatever they are! Should I glaze after or just seal with jet seal and wax with...

Yep, the cam locking tool. Both the tools shown in the pics plus the pin to lock the crank.

Did the bonnet at the weekend with the yellow top 3M compound! Then ultrafina. Work time is long, but results were class! Will do the whole car this sat! :D

And the tool for setting the dephaser!

Normally where the gearbox meets the engine. Starter should crank the flywheel!

Engine sounds like a ford tractor! Lol

Ino! Great for stopping you from grinding your teeth in a bid to get more cut from your polish! lol

Ordered stuff this morning, then realised I'd put my work address as address for delivery. Emailed him about 10mins ago and although he was in the process of shipping he changed the address for me! Not many would go to the hassle! Great service as usual Matt!

And he's better lookin! ;) x

I have Meg 86 Solo one cut and polish? Cant find 203s?

Waitey-Work the fast-cut in! U WILL NEVER BUFF THROUGH BMW PAINT! I got rid of all swirls and nearly all scrathes USING FASTCUT. But you need a rotary. Tried the DA 1st and the paintwork just laughed at it. Switched to rotary, max pressure, speed setting 3 alot of swearing and sweating and it...

Pete, U and Rossei should come show me how it's done! Hahaha

Yep, thought i'd maybe jumped a step somewhere! Will give it another go next weekend as have to work this sat! :dapprove:

I'm using rotary! Only used the da 2 flatten! I think I just haven't worked the polish long enough and that has resulted in marring or holograms?

I'm determined to get it right!

Anyone else any ideas?

No, the buffer wrecked my hands! BMW paint is the hardest substance known to man!

You def need to work it! My hands are covered in blisters! Did u use a Rotary? DA or anythin else jus wont cut it!

Thanks Pete, I didn't finish it till 2am on Sat morning. Needed it for the show in Ballymena on sat! Probably just didn't work it enough. Still a few wee flat bits that I need to compound again! Maybe give it another full 3m Fast cut and then ultrafina!

Surely it's more course than the ultrafina? I think I maybe rushed it towards the end and didn't properly refine the finish!

Ok, spent 3 days on the car before a show on Saturday. Car looked reli well, but still a few holograms on it. I wet sanded then 3m compound, then 3m Finesse, then 3m ultrafina. Have I not worked the finesse/ultrafina enough and that's where the holograms have come from? Any advice would be...

How bout this for starters? http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=429117

U have a friend called Ron? I always ran mine on BP Ultimate! Give her what she asks for!

Exactly! I have 1 in the house which I got free when I bought my Clio! Never been used. Renault wanted to put it on the car before I got it, but talked them in2 just giving me the kit! Will never be near the car! The interior protector for the carpet is great though!

The superguard is in the sponge!

Clifford or toad alarm with proxy sensor? You can even get a speaking 1 that tells the pikey f*****s to f**k off!

Just a thought, are ur spark plugs tight?

Michelin PE2's FTW!

Code will go when you plug everything back in again! Mine did the same thing when she was stripped to have the 1/4 panel fixed!

Air Con Rad will only need regassed for the Air-Con 2 work. Don't use the Air-con till it's regassed! As for bleeding, there's probably a bleed screw somewhere. Fill up with coolant, run engine with blower on full heat and undo bleed screw! Tighten screw when all the air is gone!
