Yeah bonnet and roof are no worries. It's the flanks that really take their toll on my. Might give the R8 an Amigo/Glasuring (no polishing) to let me arms cool down lol. DA heaven!

Yeah 3.02 and FF are great polishes, but I'm not so sure on the pads. Weird combo because compounding is really something reserved for rotaries in my mind. The 3M kit really is best for "newbs", as it's colour coordinated. Buy from I4D as they are superb, but try and get the 3M pads and polishes...

Christ will you stop tempting me, Kev. I've got two straight days with the Silverline on Friday and Saturday!

Yeah eBay special. Dot worry about the bottle, it's one of those collapsible ones so won't burst...!

Flol! 1-0 you old c unit.

Same boat Dave. What do you get from orange out of interest? Voda is £278 which isn't bad.

I presumed as much. Is it wrong that I only read orange and green comments in this thread?

Lol, true.

Nein, gash interior.

Where? Forgot who I was talking to, sorry. Where, you knobber. x

THANK YOU! Looks good mate. And yes, RMG and Vics is a great combo, shame it just doesn't last more than about 2 months! Looking forward to Amigo and Glasur in comparison.

So what exactly are you asking? Because at the moment, I don't know whether it's your wash technique, your polishing (and guessing you don't either as you don't sound sure about the results?) or whether something/someone has damaged your car while it was tucked away?!

Yes the paint is hard. You'll get somewhere with a DA but it will need a lot of patience. You'd be able to stay on top of the swirls with a DA but a full correction is likely to take several passes. Mine was in a state, and like yours is a colour that shows every little mark. I'm glad I've...

So are the swirls from washing, the last time it was polished, since it's been in the garage or...?!

More G101. As Kev has made me wonder if I have enough left!

Again, my CYC order came on time, correct contents and well packaged with a note from Tim thanking me for my order. I've actually never experienced an issue with any detailing supplier!

Saw you in a picture and felt genuinely sad. FCS 07/08 feels like years ago. A wait it is!

f**k me. I think even Silent_scone would agree that 3 hours of cleaning my arches would have been a better use of time.

Anytime, pop me a PM. Detailing the car next weekend (properly, wheels off etc) and intending to bring all my stuff back down.

Yarp yarp, Mrs lives in Purley at the moment. There each weekend.

Lol, you're not miles away actually, where in Surrey?

Mate you know this is getting insane now. That's twice. Were you at The Unit? Still haven't met Tom and keen to actually talk to him, rather than laugh at the occasional blunt remark. I know he does. The RS is actually the cleanest in the world, even cleaner than Paul's!

I still like Roy's original "alien spunk" comments. Ah how Gally and I laughed.

Yeah, taking it a little too seriously for Friday PM, hence changing my post to a Dodgeball quote!

I'll wait for your reply. And in the meantime, I'll wash my car. Perhaps. Shirley. Maybe?

Oh, I don't think I'm a lot dumber than you thought that I think that I thought that I was once.

What else could it be down to? If you were perusing PistonHeads, what would make you go see a car - a photo of a s**t box, dirty car in a farmer's yard or a clean car with decent photos? Exactly. Detailing is a hobby of mine, so earnings are not relevant from a cost per hour perspective. Last...

I use to wash my car every 3 days. I sold a 2002 clio 1.2 for a grand more than it was worth. Am I a wacko?
