Repack it , clean it up and stick a jubilee clip on . Its a common problem , the clips are weak and they snap . Your the 3rd person to post this problem in the past couple of days .
Repack with grease , jubilee clip , job done . Its a common fault , the clips are too weak and snap . Anyone who's clips haven't snapped yet , stick a thick ( 10mm ) cable tie over the clip to help prevent it from snapping .
Mine went on my 172 and i drove it for a couple of weeks and it was ok .
Forget these kits with the primer and lacquer . Get yourself an aerosol mixed up in your colour , spray a little bit in the lid and use a c0cktail stick or fine artists brush .
A good guide below .

About £6.00 for the Megs versus £1.80 ish for WD40 . No contest imo .
WD40 everytime . ;) Next time i use the WD40 Dicky i'll do some before an afters i.e. with the white marks and then dressed with WD40 .
So you had it on when you arrived at work and just left it ? Your better off cleaning it off as soon as you can rather than leave it to burn the paint . Sounds like it's etched into the paintwork / lacquer . A machine polish might remove it . Personally i always keep a bottle of quick detailer...
^^^ For removing white polish marks off plastic , it's the only thing i've found that actually does work . Then dress with WD40 . Cheap solution to a pain in the ass problem ;)
Nope . Spray it on a cloth , rub it in then buff off . They all run , AG bumper care , CG trim gel.... if you put too much on . Try it mate , you'll be pleasantly suprised . Plus you can spray your dodgy bonnet catch as well .
WD40 ftw ;)
I've tried it . It's nothing special imo . I compared it to 2 new Collinite waxes i got and i would choose the Collinites over the Autoglym everytime if i was buying them .

I had an Iceberg 172 with a scratch on the passenger side door and a scuff on the front bumper .I took it TO 4 different places , 1 of them being flying colours who do smart repairas , they all said it need to be sprayed all quoting around £450 . Got a bloke at a backstreet garage to do em both...

Re: French pikey b*****ds get your arses into gear...
Maybe it's the German pikey b4stards ( where they are made ) and not the French you should be blamin' ;)
I think this stuff is the dogs danglies personally , Extreme synthetic detailer . I've just got myself a gallon of the stuff . Use it to spritz your m/f when your removing wax , makes life alot easier :)

Don't forget " CLIOSPORT " for...
Millteks can be had for £313 cat back , or with a decat for £346 . Then obviously you need postage on top .

Could be rust on your discs after being left for a while , which is normal . Try driving with your left foot on the brake pedal for the first few mins , see if it clears up quicker than normal driving .
Doesn't sound like anything to worry about tbh .
Well you've definitely lost me with all these different combinations , lol .
Pics and good quality sound clips for the above combinations are a must . I doubt you'll generate much interest / sales otherwise imo .
Lmfao .
I've bled em all ways . Started with the fronts , started with the rears . It makes no difference , even with abs . As long as there is no air in the system the jobs a good un :)
Not cleaned a Clios headlining but cleaned a Pug 306's using Autoglym interior shampoo . Spray on neat if it's heavily soiled , leave to dwell then wipe off with a damp cloth . Dilute if it's not too dirty .
Not really , use a cloth to dress it then buff it off .I've used greasier dedicated trim products . It blackens the trim and is water repellent . Use it after the pencil eraser ;)
