    Seriously Baked On Brake Dust

    Being a spray doesn't dilute the product, necessarily. It's not something that I have ever used, but it is known to be a useful product for hard to remove grime.

    Porsche Boxster S & Audi RS2 - Protection details

    Been hearing good things about the 3M stuff, so will purchase/add to the list.

    Getting used to this detailing malarky...

    Sounds pretty good buddy. Any glass cleaning/metal/plastics/rubbers etc? One thing to mention, may well be a mis-type; Final Finish needs a finished pad. Not a polishing pad :)

    Oh and post up products used, as it's always good to chatter about product use with new detailers. Could help you in future details.

    Looks good. Quick tip in future to save you time and money (costs of tape); take the side bump strips off. They pop backwards and forwards and off. Much easier!

    What part of the Clio...

    A one off deep clean will help with that :) wash down, cut back, sealed up and the brake dust should wash off with warm water and a decent mitt/assortment of brushes.

    VW Bora - Enhancement (Ads_172)

    Will read it properly later, but looks like great results for a limited time correction. Interested to hear from Ads about the longevity, as mentioned above. Nice colour as well, chose well.

    Detailed the low mobile today - pic heavy

    It looks very clean buddy, but I really don't like the car/wheels :( Each to their own though!

    Karcher problem

    Motor could be knackered. The good news is that because of the line (3 series and above), the motor is removable and serviceable, rather than being plastic welded in. Take to the nearest Karcher outlet and describe what's up. They will most likely charge, but it'll be far more cost effective...

    What part of the Clio...

    As above Alex, the DA won't generate enough heat to harm the plastic panels on a Clio. Ph1 front bumper, spoilers and CF. CF never seems to be quite as easy as you hope :(

    how to work out your bhp (no rolling roads needed) ;)

    If he can't spell, he's unlikely to possess the intelligence required to service the car properly. Instantly puts me off any advert.

    Menzerna Power Finish

    Yes, but remember you are only going to be able to remove very small amounts of swirling by hand.

    Seriously Baked On Brake Dust

    Nice. Get some Wonder Wheels/Cleans Wheels on it. Then de-tar, clay, polish, seal so that never happens again!

    Menzerna Power Finish

    SRP has barely any cutting qualities. Scratch X is good, but not worth using it all over the place.

    No compromise Supercharged ek9 progress thread

    I can't stand these cars, but being a massive project man myself, I love it. And you've been cleaning, so that buys you my respect!! Great stuff buddy, keep it up!

    H&R coilover cleaning.

    In that case, yes. The rust is not something you will be able to combat sadly. The simple fact is the amount of water and salt etc that gets thrown up makes it very likely that you'll get the rust re-occuring. May I suggest, once you've managed to sort the locking rings, that you cover the rest...

    H&R coilover cleaning.

    Tar remover for the tar spots that will almost certainly be on the body of the dampers. Also, re the rust, a stiff brush and brush the rust off. Where is the rust? On the body of the shock or on the coilover thread?

    2 corsas with 'could be worse......could be a clioooooooooooo!' stickers on back

    The last time I was in a Corsa, she crashed. Now I know I have answered my own statement there, with the text in bold, but still, the car was s**t.

    Menzerna Power Finish

    It's not hard Dean, I promise. Ensure the area/panel is well lubed up and if you feel the clay starting to stick, another spritz is required. Yes you can go both ways, i.e. over lube and under lube the area. But you have to be pretty stupid to do the latter! Always move the clay in the same...

    Seriously Baked On Brake Dust

    ^^this basically. I tend to take it case by case. This is not meant to be offensive, but some people's opinion of baked on is another person's "simples!" :) I would start with something like APC as you have done. If that has no effect, step it up to something like AG Engine and Machine Cleaner...
