    Seriously Dirty Fiesta - Over 6 months of dirt.

    Oh and I wouldn't use the Cleans Wheels unless you water it down. Unless your wheels are that bad.

    Seriously Dirty Fiesta - Over 6 months of dirt.

    I would suggest a decent snow foaming with an APC or Degreaser would be best as a start. But failing that, a decent pressure wash down to remove a lot of the surface dirt and then use as much soapy water as possible. If you run out, refresh and start again. Top to bottom. Different mitt for the...

    Correction Detail - RenaultSport Megane 250 Cup in Oyster Grey

    You're mad, personally fella, but I guess a warranty would make life less of a ball ache with a Renault!

    Paint Depth Gauge

    Ebay buddy. You're always going to want one and although the initial outlay is high, it's well worth having.

    photographing swirls

    They will show up more if the surrounding is slightly darker as it will excentuate the marks.

    Meguiars Products?

    By hand or machine fella? If it's Clio paint I would suggest, as always, 203s with a LCC hand cut pad. Found here; http://www.polishedbliss.co.uk/acatalog/menzerna-203s-cat8.html http://www.polishedbliss.co.uk/acatalog/lake-country-light-cut-hand-pad-cat24.html#aMasterLCHO0000 But as Alan...

    Another New Runaround - 2000 Audi A3 Sport 1.8 Turbo

    Last mildly off topic post, sorry Nick! LEGend. If you've got time have a read of some of the hybrid and BT conversions on Audisport, Welly and Paul aka Tufftybloke.

    Another New Runaround - 2000 Audi A3 Sport 1.8 Turbo

    Bullet proof mile munchers. I'd be surprised at 190 from a Ko3, but I know they pull silly figures when you send them to CR. Presuming because you've not put it in the description that it isn't a TQ?

    Correction Detail - RenaultSport Megane 250 Cup in Oyster Grey

    Surprised to hear that fella, I've been very impressed by the C4 and Wheel Armour. Cracking beading from both and thus far the C4 has been on my Panzer for over 5 months and still beads as new... WA seems to be handling the dust well on the R8, but it really doesn't used that much, so not really...

    cleaning engine bay pressure washer?

    You don't have to use a pressure washer or hose. Spray on a degreaser like Megs Super Degreaser. Aggitate in the worst areas with a decent brush. Use a damp MF to "rinse" the product off. It's the safest option.

    Enhancement Detail - Deep Pearl Blue VW Golf R32 Mk5

    I was wondering the same you Brummy git ;) You well Russ? SEnt you a PM a while back on DW or here about a member in the midlands who had PM'd me about doing a detail - pointed him in your direction... think he was a fellow Meg owner. Lovely results on the .:R, always a rewarding colour!

    photographing swirls

    Manual focus is your friend for this. Always set the DSLR up on manual, then you can really pick up decent swirl shots and 50:50s.

    First car insurance please help

    You question the price and talk about how it's too much, then mention you have mods? When did schools stop teaching common sense? Because you are no longer in the car with L Plates on and being supervised by an adult with at least 3 or 5 years driving experience, and therefore pose a greater...

    expiry date on shampoo?

    Yes they do, but I highly doubt it would damage the paint. You're more likely to find that it has separated or gone hard. Use your good judgement and if it still looks OK, test a small amount on a small area.

    Who wants to detail my car?

    To put it simply, the whole car fella. The paint correction alone on a large bus like a 6 series will take at least 10-12 hours. And that's after a wash down, clay, PDG readings, arches, wheels, interior/leather, engine bay... Something like a Clio takes me 8 hours to just the exterior, let...

    Help...

    It'll drop like a stone if you mess with it. Simple. Granted this is "free bhp" but as soon as you start messing with the car, it will rattle more (because it's a Renault) and will see the £££ drop off it. If you were in the frame of mind that it's worth nothing, to you, either as parts or...
