    advice on drying process

    I don't bother drying anything bar the shuts, wheels and arches on the 182 now. I wash as normal and then I use the Aquagleam filter and a couple of cans of filtered water for the final rinse and allow to drip dry. (Wont' be ideal if you are pushed for space to store it) Even pat drying with...

    Meguiar's Dual Action Polisher

    If they can do a good price for it with a range of pads, doubt there will be any reason to have to import a US spec machine anymore.

    Polarizer example (photography)

    Polarizer ruins the look reflections in the silver paint in the above pic IMO and makes the front wing look odd in colour. Like what it does to the glass.

    Think she still is enjoying it, I was allowed to take it up Prescott Hillclimb last summer ! http://www.richtreen.co.uk/events/pugfest2007/images/IMG_7803.jpg http://www.richtreen.co.uk/events/pugfest2007/images/IMG_7805.jpg

    Good thanks, hope your well too. Dee is still looking after the Monaco. Should make some good money then to spend on track related bits, will be fine when you paint it white then ;)

    Meguiar's Dual Action Polisher

    Ideal choice for those that don't have one at the moment though. Indeed - Doubt PC users would go over to having one.

    broken v6....detailed lol

    All the depends on the person doing it. Bumper and bonnet off the car in most cases. Chances are the wings will be painted on the car and blown into doors. Renault paint is not the best but you will struggle to find someone to paint a car as good, without trying lots of bodyshops, paying lots...

    What wax

    Indeed I do - I am loving the finish it has left on the last application - just wish it was as easy as the Best of Show to use.

    Meguiar's Dual Action Polisher

    I would be very surprised if the PC/UDM backing plates wont fit it.

    broken v6....detailed lol

    I would think twice about getting the whole car painted unless it really needs it tbh. No swirls after painting is also another issue - The car will have to be polished after painting which is where a high percentage of my work comes from in correcting holograms and marks left by bodyshop...

    Should A 172 Feel Faster than a 182...?

    Get someone else from work to take it out and compare them against each other - is the only way!

    paint protection

    I have seen some that look blatent and some that you struggle to spot, not sure if it is down to the film used or the person fitting it. Shape of the car your having it applied to makes a big difference.

    New K-Tec 182 Exhaust System

    New tailpipes are much better, finish on them looks a bit shite though.

    PC process advice please

    In most cases by PC you will need #83 on the SFX 1 and then follow up with the #80 on SFX 2. The it is up to you on the SRP, but after the above SFX 3 should be fine.
  27. Rich

    PC process advice please

    If claying with QD no need to re wash. 83 and then the 80 SRP will work fine on either a polishing or finishing pad. EGP IMO is best applied by hand. Fresh pad per different product for me unless going more aggressive. i.e if I start a panel with Menzerna Final Finish on a polishing pad and...

    What wax

    Being as you already have the 476 lay that down as a base and add the 50/50 on top for looks.
