haha I can give it a go if you want mate. Cash monies accepted ;) Thanks, should do for the amoutn of time it took me!

Well got my kit through today from www.CleanYourCar.com which was spot on service and really happy with it :D Was really overcast so I couldnt get any decent before pictures but trust me it was screwed! Anyway, I'll let the pics do the talking! this one is with the left half done, can;t...

Well I got it all done apart from the front bumper, really pleased with the results! Not got all the swirls but most are now gone, including quite a few marks from all around the car! I'll put a thread up in media in case anyone is interested.

Just done the bonnet, looking miles better but havent managed to get many decent before and after pics due to no sun at all! Now the bonnet is done can i just bang my meguiars wax on by hand and that will be ok?

^ haha damn you! Although I'm going to look at a new car tomorrow hopefully so might not even need to PC my car anymore, depending on what they offer me against the new one.

Ah right nice one, sounds good! Hate my job, can't wait to leave! I won't be able to make Saturday, and Sunday I'm fitting some springs for someone so this weekend is a no go.

I want good weather tomorrow, I'm working all weekend!

haha! mines done now, gonna tidy it up a bit and then it's going in July for a 172! I figure its worth paying £1800 insurance to have some fun in a car before the government f***s us all up!

I've just bought a G220 from cleanyourcar.com mate, coming tomorrow! Personally I'd go for springs though, I know how stupid they look standard height!

Just got an email from Parcelforce saying the item has been despatched, so I hope it's a decent day tomorrow to crack on with it! Gotta say thanks to Tim for all the help, excellent service so far and I look forward to giving him more of my money in the future!!!

where abouts at royces do you work mate? i've never seen a black 172 around. i'm on B-shite at the minute!

Will do, there will be plenty of pics up soon i hope! I gave it a quick going over last night after work to get most of the crap off, hopefully on friday i'll have plenty of time to get cracking on it!

^ yeah thats what I though. I would have waited but I'm working 7 days a week at the minute but i've manged to wangle friday off work, so i wanted a go at it while i have the time, and the sonus was the only one in stock!!

lol, decided on the sonus package to be honest! I'm gonna do plenty of research on what other stuff to buy which is good but after speaking to Tim from cleanyourcar I thought it would be good enough to start with. As I get to know more then I'll buy something different! I appreciate all the...

To be honest I want to go for the sonus one because it is in stock! Are there any other sites that sell similar stuff? Hmm, £230 on car cleaning stuff!!!

Thanks for the help. I mean do I use 1 polish, then another, and then another, will this make it better, or are they all individual depending on how bad the swirls etc are? Would this be a better kit? Or can you reccomend any? Are there any other sites other than i4detail and cleanyourcar?

Cheers for the advice. Will the polishes included in the kit be good enough for correction? I've got a lot of bad swirling so want something fairly abrasive? Do I use all 3 1 after each other? Also, how important is claying really well? I've never been too good with it! I do use loads of...

If I went for the sonus kit as linked above, what order would I use the products in? Would I need to use one after the other? What wax would I use afterwards? I've got some Meguiars carnuba wax, can that be put on after? By hand of with the machine? If I get some clay residue left on the...

^ yeah I know, but they are out of stock of the machines!

Wow! Thats a good read! I'll go over it in detail later on, thanks for the link. I was just looking and thought about the following: The sonus set you linked Masking tape Some of the sonus spot pads Microfibre drying towel Clay Meguiars shampoo All comes to about £260!!! Do we still get...

Cheers mate. Does that kit include everything I need to just crack on with the car? What are backing plates about?! The three polishes included, are they all OK for correction of the paintwork? Should they be done 1 after another or are they different stages?! What wax should I use on top of...

http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/polishing/polishing-machine/meguiars-g220-complete-menzerna-kit/prod_414.html just seen this, does it include everything I need like it says? In what order would I use the products given? Also, would I use 1 pad per product used? How long do pads last, can you...

I'd still want to buy one John to be honest, but when I do get one I could do with a bit of advice, so I'll drop you a pm if you want? Just need to get a few quotes on some bodywork stuff to see what that'll set me back then I'll be away! I can see a big bill at the end of the month!

Right, decided that instead of paying someone to PC my car I may as well buy all the stuff myself and have a bash at it...so... What do I need?! What does the difference in pad size mean? What polishes etc? Basically my car is pretty badly swirled, so I want to get them all out, so in the...

^ Try M&B motors in Derby mate, they have always been good with me. But for servicing and stuff I'd say it's definately worth the drive to Birchdown in Chesire, you still save money over shitty renault even after paying for fuel, costs less than £20 both ways!

Yep, it's the first background I've had that doesn't seem to stretch, looks awesome! I want a 197 badly now!

Same for me mate, boot floor needed to be cut out and welded in mine after a 10 pmh impact, looked as if i hadnt been hit from the outside. Get it up in a ramp and have a look underneath mate.

Thanks for the pic, brightens up my desktop nicely :)

You're telling me mate! Had a lot of trouble from people down there, was probably you....haha only joking! Yeah, lowered one? She's really fit too, doesn't live around here though.

Love it! Any chance of a hi-res of number 1?!
