How do you end up in this section if you're not into detailing?

I love that you chose Purple Haze. Such an awesome original wax. My use of it in this thread will never leave me... http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?527265-Bit-of-a-Clean!-*FRP-Content*-Long-Detailing-Read!!!*** Old school products! :cool:

Lols at basic kit!

Ah indeed I do. It ran on my Brothers car for 2-3 months, heavy miles and no washing. Also on my bosses Porsche for over 3 months, small miles and garaged, I eventually stripped it for testing others. Can't complain. I like topping it with a carnauba spray. Field Glaze etc.

Indeed. Bodyshops really use because of time constraints.

Took that long for the thread to reach Brazil!

The thing a lot of people forget is you'll take less lacquer off going through the grades properly than firing into 1000 grade with FC+ or G3.

402! :)

The box is the issue hence my point.

Surely the power isn't the issue in the Clio? Please remember manufacturers restrict cars for their own gain. My ST was 150bhp from factory, bare in mind it's a 2.0 petrol, ford could have gone for 200bhp without trying. It's not always a component issue.

The V12V is the best Aston in years. My boss was way too worried about reliability (had one years ago, once bitten) too buy one sadly. Apart from the wheels, a stunning machine.

Chrome uses desktop a lot more.

It really is a special colour. The car needs a really good cleanse/polish though. That colour will come alive as you know. Also do you have any wax applicators?

Well sort of. It depends what the coating is. Some ceramic coatings use a topping for performance. Citrus will ruin top ups. My Strata like old C1 doesn't have a top up product so slightly different.

Even claying marrs the paint so that cloth could be wild. I really don't like the idea of it for some reason. Oh and citrus wash will affect lsp Jaff. So you know.

The Frs is horrific! Lol at wrapping one of the best colours ever made!

Great colour Danny, I agree. In the flesh it really comes alive. I'd really like a nice Titanium 182. Would actually like to see one on Silver turinis.

Some nice colours but I agree with Dan. Most normal wraps in gloss metallic just look crap. Orange peely and zero reflection. Hence why most go matte. Go matte. Invest in proper detailing products and the finish will last a long time.

Yup. My Trophy was almost double the price of my V6 TT. It was still cheap but not in comparison to other cars.

No mate. It's still carnauba based from memory.

Lush! Pics?

It's such a stupid little thing. I utterly love it. What's the chance of a run in it at some point? I' m in West Lothian.

Still wearing coloured wheels? Also name of the company in shotts mate for future reference?

Ah sorry mate thought you still had it. I remember your carpark pictures a while back. Ford thread maybe. I do remember Rhys' ZS drank fuel when it was on it's road out but he had the 1.6. Any 1.7 i've had (5 now, 2x Frps) has been great on fuel. I'd love a really cheap ZS or Puma with...

Great pair mate but conditioners don't work. You need to keep leather clean. Don't condition it. Gliptone cleaner is superb. Real bite to it. The alcantara is tricky as you don't want to wet it. Nice soft brush and a damp MF with fairy liquid/water in a bottle. Spray onto the cloth not the seat.

Stunning ZS but how the feck are you doing 22mpg? I couldn't get my Frp under 35mpg if I tried, although my first one wasn't driven hard. Haven't driven an Frp'd Fiesta. What kind of money do they sell for?

Citrus Power is less industrial mate but just dilute g101 more to make it weaker. Nothing cleans like 101! Oh and AG HD would be my shout in the £40 category for a Winter wax. Only 476 will last longer and it's a bit s**t. Amazon is cheapest by far.

Lovely mate. Those Turinis work so well with that colour.

You are the worst picture taker ever! ;) Did you wax the full car then remove?

I love the V8V. Little compact piece of class. Hopefully it stays in the club a little longer! ;)
