    Clay and Wax/Sealant

    Be careful with he SSR 3, PC does not have the power to break it down properly. Clay I go for the Consumer Megs Clay or Sonus Green. As long as they are mild they are all much of a muchness made in the same factory. Wax depends on Budget - Chemical Guys 50/50 - Under £25, my actual choice @...

    p21 wax?

    No probs - The SRP will remove the wax and EGP when used. It is mild so you could use it once a week without doing any harm, but won't be needed.

    p21 wax?

    No need to polish every week to be honest. I tend to get the layers of sealant on over a few weeks, 2-3 layers of EGP are ideal, then wash and QD and add wax as needed weekly. Only Polish and Seal once every 3 - 6 months.

    p21 wax?

    Wipe on and wipe off straight away.. On white I doubt you will notice much difference in looks over the EGP alone, compared to the effect it will have on dark colours. Most of the shine and looks are created in the polishing stage this is where to concentrate to take things up a notch.

    IM IN MEGS TOP 25!

    Not quite - despite what they say you can damage paint with one, still needs to be used with care. It is a machine polisher - but as it is random orbital in its motion (spins and ocillates) it is not a rotary.

    claying

    Check the painted parts first, if they feel gritty clay them. Hand in a plastic bag after washing - will allow you to feel any contaminents on the paint

    SRP with a PC

    I read they have reformulated the Scratch X for machine use, the old one used to gum up. SRP works lovely by machine, but wont correct any real defects. Used on a polishing or finishing pad depending what cleaning power you do want it to have will leave a lovely finish for the EGP when used by...

    how long for the oil to heat up?

    Longer than you would think My old 309 and 205 GTi's used to take 10-15 mins after getting the coolant up to temp for the oil temp to come up. I normalyl give the 182 another 5 mins after getting the water temp up before giving it the full beans.

    You know me to well ;) Have been using a mates 306 Rallye all weekend as he needed to get both his cars to the event so was not in mine this year. Have taken it up the hill the last past two years.

    Best for applying by hand...

    Not sure what the US one works out at the moment, worth working it out with the discount codes etc.

    plastic polish?

    Would probably be a pain, I pc'd the spokes of a 182 wheel to correct some defects and it was sort of possible. Unfortunately the lacquer was very thin and I ended up going through trying to correct the scratch.

    plastic polish?

    I just use the same counter weight (as supplied with the pc)

    plastic polish?

    SRP and SSR 1 will be fine, I have never used SSR 2 on them though so can't say either way.
  24. Rich

    Best for applying by hand...

    The SRP works well by PC on a polishing or finishing pad. The EGP I still apply by hand.

    Best for applying by hand...

    Which is £99 minus the discount the 182_Blue can get with his code, will be here in 3 odd days even from the sates, plus a transformer and some polish you will be all up and going for under 200 quid, do a few cars for mates etc and it will pay for itself and your two Black cars will be sorted...
