    It is indeed. Like a nice modern version will great improvements over the original if that makes sense. Really good product to have.

    The more you speak the more you prove you don't know enough about detailing to make comments like fact. 50/50s are a new thing? They've been on DW since the site was built up. The simple fact is you thought/think paint correction was/is about getting paint to the same level. That's a basic...

    If he understood the "art" he wouldn't be asking the questions. I'm guessing he's frustrated because he isn't king dong at a subject.

    Chip. The art of detailing/polishing/correction isn't to make lacquer equally flat. Hence my comment about you misunderstanding what "detailing" is about. On a microscopic level paint is in itself, peaks and troughs. Paint readings are taken for clearcoat removal not to get each section...

    I'm not a fan of Crystal mate. Better out there imo.

    Chip the fact you don't understand the basic concept of polishing kind of negates your argument. You don't know about 2 step correction or 3 step polishing processes or even concentrated correction work. Paint isn't even. From 2cm to another 2 there could be 3 microns of a difference from...

    Write off valuation issues.

    You're comment was in reply to recovering costs. There's nothing backwards about that process. They were still wrong though.

    I've decided you either really don't understand correction work or you're trolling, either way... i'm oot.

    You're missing out the fact if the tape wasn't there you would have an invisible box/tape/line as JD says 12x12 or whatever.

    Chip is practically saying you have to polish a whole panel with the same amount of passes or it'll all be uneven.

    I'd need to try that one out. Sounds cool though.

    Write off valuation issues.

    Not really, they still have to value the car correctly. They can't just pay out and go to recover costs only to be told you valued the car wrong here is 20k instead of 23k.

    Lols, as an apprentice I used to spend hours taping up badges! :( f**king cut myself hundreds of times. Those badges could be expensive to replace hence why I had to tape hundreds up in our bodyshop.

    Yeah they would mate but everything still has to be accountable.

    Ever thought the customer might be paying more to have the car "written up"??? Mental? Not so much mate.

    BTBM gives a bit mores suds and slickness than Z7, never was the biggest fan. Or Gtechniq Gwash. Pretty "clean" shampoo.

    I don't understand how you can take it too seriously? It's not a hobby it's a business. His business is being the best. As for taking the handles etc out i'm not sure why you would leave them in when wet sanding a full car especially if you're painting some bits. Detailing write ups are to...

    Write off valuation issues.

    Lols. I told you boi. Mr Obudsman makes things happen. Utter shower of t***s by the sounds of it. I'm guessing a complaint will be going in and they've lost a customer. I can understand the Gap issue. They're not willing to cover an insurance company undervaluing the car which is fair enough...

    Heated seats and electric mirrors were probably a far-flung fantasy from Mercedes S-Class' back in the day but they slowly make their way down the models.

    http://www.cobrasimulation.com/ The website isn't sorted yet but a bit of background. Our bodyshop and myself have been in contact with a local guy for the past 2 years helping shape and paint certain items for some American buyers etc. I've used his demo on a racing game and flight simulator...

    Get Z2 for under it mate. Kinda waste having to reapply R222 all the time. 2 layers of Z2 will just be superb on GW mate.

    It's far from an old car though. A decon session will transform the colour mate.

    New family wagon.....

    Just a big f**k of awesomeness! What a car. I know they cost a lot to run, an awful lot but under 10k sees you into one and they are just epic! You actually hate MPG, I bet you can't remember what 20mpg looks like?
