    The Menz 203s/2500 will be great by hand. Have a look at these hand cut pads (don't forget free shipping!); http://www.polishedbliss.co.uk/acatalog/lake-country-light-cut-hand-pad-cat24.html Glaze wise, have a look at Poorboys' White Diamond, or Galltastic's favourite Prima Amigo on an...

    Mk1 Golf

    Chap, I could go down the route of "Jesus, you give some advice etc" but that wouldn't get us anywhere. The fact that you are asking means you are not 100% on using the machine and I know from personal experience that arrogance (possibly the wrong word here) can lead to issues that can only be...

    Mk1 Golf

    I for one would not be throwing caution to the wind on an unknown car, in unknown condition for my boss. Do you have a paint depth gauge? Or an idea of the cars history with resorts etc? I'm playing the devils advocate here, but if you go through the paint and cause damage, how will your boss...

    It's a good clay lube, Tobias.

    Mk1 Golf

    If you are thinking of polishing it, don't do it with a machine. No offense but you don't fill me with confidence in your abilities chap! I would look at enhancing the finish with filler glazes and hand polishing.

    I've been informed your opinion doesn't count as you drive an Audi. Is there any truth in this? Because if so, I'm fuckedx3. Lol.

    All that work only to run a BMC "strangler", unless I'm very much mistaken?

    Agreed, although DW can be a daunting place, especially when searching.

    8 simple steps to getting rid of shadows from badges

    Most do/have. It depends on your personality. I have mild OCD when it comes to research (and cleaning), so I spent months looking at ways to clean the car before I started out.

    Not at all. You are one of very few new users that possesses those funny sticky-out things on the side of your head, that most use to listen. It's a refreshing change. T-Cut does have it's uses, Adam, so don't go throwing the bottle away; - ever found your CDs jump in your stereo, due to...

    I've turned over a new leaf. I no longer scorn. Unless they ask for it.

    8 simple steps to getting rid of shadows from badges

    Detailing has moved on a bit, chap. There are far safer and better products out there these days. I trust you understand I am not having ago, but T-Cut is a frightful product and AGT&GR is extremely watered down and thus fairly ineffective in comparison to AutoSmart's Tardis.

    Thanks Adam, but I don't think many people will be taking your advice.

    White wheel cleaning

    I agree with you entirely. However, I would also refer to the 7 Ps; Proper Planning and Preparation Prevents Piss Poor Performance. I.e. stock up with the right products first, then embark on the "correction".

    White wheel cleaning

    Yes. I use it. But FK1000p is not a "normal wax/sealant" as it's specifically designed for high temperature/chemical environments, such as those found around the brakes/suspension. I would class a normal sealant/wax as Chem Guys' Blitz or Crystal Rock. These would not last.

    White wheel cleaning

    But it won't last due to heat, of course.

    Very Stuburn brake dust

    You have a flat spot on your alloy.

    Very Stuburn brake dust

    Agreeded. Look at the difference between colour of the alloy and the bolt cover/centre cap.

    Very Stuburn brake dust

    Of course it was, this is ClioSport. Iron X or De-Ironizer, probably the latter so you can leave it to dry, then pressure wash it off.

    Car Polisher Advice

    You know about SunGuns but are asking about angle grinders? Shall we start this thread again from my post, please. No more oh dears etc. What are you after - a machine polisher? Have you used either a rotary or a Dual Action before? What is your budget? Do you have a paint depth gauge?

    FAO: Christopher - Nimbus 200

    I'm certain they are great to drive. But I just wouldn't buy a new one, as they drop in value so quickly it makes me nauseous; I wouldn't buy it in Nimbus as it really does look quite plain; and from my own Renault experience (and the fact that most posts on Facebook are from people like Warren...
