Poorboys. Smells like bubble gum? Great product. But not C5. --- I am here: http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=51.528600,-0.127627

You've just done your wheels, haven't you Fringe?

Likewise on the wheels front. The C5 went on the R8 wheels. Blast with the pressure washer and they're clean!

Surely you just bring it back in your hand luggage as something you've bought? No one checks to see if my iPhone or iPad were bought in Germany when I travel abroad... they presume I have bought them and brought them on a journey from start to finish...

You just wait for C4 and C5, Dave. You'll never need anything else.

Precisely why people came to me, Jack. The price and time, and therefore the expectations, were paint correction. Snow foam, wash, clay, wash, dry, polishing stages as necessary, seal. Wheels were cleaned not detailed. I would usually add tyre shine and trim gel as finishing touches.

Likewise Dave. The window on our shower (glass panel for an open shower, not bath, so right next to the shower head) was opaque with lime scale (Clapham, so hard water like you). Lime scale remover (with gloves on!) then process above and it still beads. Just needs a rinse over after use with...

Wash with pH neutral. Clay. Wash again and dry. Polish with glass polish. IPA wipe down to remove oils. Then your chosen sealant. The IPA wipe down could mean the difference between 10,000 miles and 30,000. Having said that, the GTechniq system seems to work very well together. Worth getting...

Stage 2? So it must have a FMIC, 3" Down Pipe and Turbo Back Exhaust?

Locked to networks would be my only worry?

Yes it is.

RainX went on my shower glass and mirrors only.

Gold flake? Misano Red is a flat colour is it not?

Glass polish doesn't work as a rain repellant, no. It may bead for a while, but this will be just due to the polishing oils. RainX is OK. If you want to go the whole hog, get GTechniq G1 or G3 (depending on your driving habits)...

Can't see it but looks s**t anyway etc. x

More of an "all of the gear, no idea" person that is willing to charge people money without knowing the full ins and outs.

Travel to see Mikey aka Bifcaids in Warrington?

Decent quality make up pads Jon. The S3 has it on at the moment. Arches are still clean from 4 months ago. Body work, springs and shocks are wearing FK with no yellowing... Maybe put it on too thick? It doesn't work on tyres that well, sadly!

Bad times but you're ok bud so that's a relief. Even I can't help with your paint work this time ;) hoping all is well mate.

Even better my way. Free from Argos but with a 3 year plan (jail)... /rioter

The simple answer is that I wanted to meet more of the CS lot, which I managed to do with offering it as a service to club members. However, I knew from dealing with Aston and a few others that I would immediately want to cover myself. Doing cars for friends and family is one thing. For...

QD rather sealant would probably have been the right phrase, but who's splitting hairs... Tried this and for an entry level wax it really is perfectly acceptable. More than that actually. Still a fan of the Nattys though!

I'm going to start forwarding on the questions I get fella. You have to laugh!

Getz ya selfs a long 2 da Manc meat, ya here me bruv? On a serious note, thread above this, Manchester meet, 3rd September, other arrangements TBC.

Re: Big Manchester Meeting. Date: TBA. Oooh OOOOOHHH I'm around on the first weekend of September! NoseBag 241 pub meal meet extravaganza?

A decent wipe down with IPA will suffice, so wash, dry, clay, wash, dry, polish, IPA wipe down to remove filling oils, C2. The point Dave made was that all Last Stage Products last infinitely longer if the surface is optimum for their bonds. So a wipe down with IPA will remove polish and oils...

Fair that you are talking from previous experience, but so am I. The experience of "I read this thread, followed it and now have knackered X". The furring that occurs on Clio headlamps is very very light. Therefore, anything other than starting out with 2000 is un-necessary (based on doing 19...

A more in depth answer from Dave, as per these days ;) As above Tom. Due to lacking time and space for detailing these days, C2 really is a god send.

G101 at 4:1 removed delivery wax on dad's R8 to my surprise, still swear by it. H'email.
