Chemical guys xxxx hardcore past wax is good enough imo . Looks good , easy on and off . If your gonna wax your car every couple of weeks then durability isn't really an issue .
I've yet to see a wax that is pure carnauba , typical content is probably around 15 - 30% as it's as hard as iron...
Like al says . I use the microfibre applicators for wax and sealant , not keen on the little yellow foam pads as they are a bit on the small side .
For polish i use either the sonus professional applicator...
Don't worry about buying an import mate . I'm on my second import . They are built in the same factory as cars that were intended for the UK and they are right hand drive . The standard renault alarms aren't that good from what i've read on here and only have an 18 month warranty on them . I...
I got 2 michelin pilot exaltos for my 182 delivered for £151 4 weeks ago from www.mytyres.co.uk . Fitted locally for a fiver each . Took 2 days to arrive :)
I'd never heard of the bonnet catch problem until it was highlighted on watchdog .
I think the people who have or have had any problems with the catch are the kind of people who never open their bonnet to do regular checks i.e screenwash , oil , etc ..... i would say most people on here...
I had exactly the same on my 172 . It was on 30k miles and needed new plugs .It felt dead with no power up until 3000 revs .As you've already changed your plugs maybe it could be your ht leads or coil ??
What plugs did you use ? NGK PFR6E-10 are fitted as standard .
The only time you...
Not mine , but i said i'd post on here for a mate at work .

Would white go grey ? It'll go fuckin black within a couple of days lol . You'll soon regret it as your calipers will look shite . Go for a more sensible colour if i were you .
Loads on ebay mate. Get some before and after pics when you do it , like a couple of days after ;)...
Anway . Hope you get it sorted . You say your off out tonight , anywhere special ?
Maybe this can help :)

Didn't it ever occur to you that maybe some people had their cars booked in in advance ? I wouldn't say there are many garages around that you can just turn up and demand they carry out unplanned work .
Sometimes these things happen mate . As much as it's an inconvenience to you , thats life...
Maybe , just maybe he had other cars booked in before you dropped the job in his lap ??
" Hold it lads , stop what your doing . This guy wants to go out tonight so its a priority job "
Its not just about the foam .Its how slick the shampoo is , helps to stop any dirt scratching the paintwork . My prefered choice is the extreme body wash n wax . Use a good lambswool mitt as well .

The wd40 will evaporate after a while especially if it gets hot in the engine bay so it will let fine dirt particles through . Its nothing like the genuine k+n oil .
I use wheel guard from carwashnwax , topped with body blitz sealant then collinite 476 wax .The blue rim and wheel cleaner is good stuff as well or fairy power spray :)
