    cleaning "2.0 16v" badge?

    Not sure why people use Metal polish on them as they are just painted plastic! Wash, clay, polish, seal and wax as you do the rest of the paintwork.

    A V6 but no garage...? Hmmm...?

    Car covers attract more attention as little scrotes will want to find out whats under it. Will stick out as much as an uncovered Vee will!

    clio models

    Renault dealers sell/can order them in. They do an Inferno and Liquid Yellow one at the moment, and previously did a Racing Blue that appears on Ebay from time to time. Never done Black Gold though.

    Claying

    Harsh boys, who fancy's some lovin then ? ;) No probs claying as much as you like really, though every time you do there is a chance of inducing very fine marring that needs polishing out. On daily used vehicle and on cars that live outside twice a year is a good amount. Spring and Autumn -...

    This any good Polish/seal/wax

    Great proven combo, glad you found it looked better, it leaves paint richer and deeper and less washed out in colour than the m/seal. Is a fair but more durable and longer lasting for me here aswell.

    using clay, what do i need??

    If using shampoo and water to clay you can leave the car wet. ( I always clay this way unless it is on a car already washed or washed using QEW ) If using QD, you should really dry it, but may get away with leaving it wet if you use Megs Last Touch QD neat which can be cut half and half with...

    using clay, what do i need??

    On Black you will almost certainly need to polish as it will leave some mild marring.

    using clay, what do i need??

    Cut the bar into 3. Makes it go further and if you drop it you don't ruin the whole bar. Either use the Quick Detailer supplied, buy some for it, or use a car soap/shampoo and water mix. Make sure the car is wahsed well, and most importantly the clay is warm and soft and you use plenty of qd...

    Swissvax Best of Show Carnuba on Black Gold

    Nothing done on the 172, bar a wash with Shampoo Plus and dry/qd with Megs Last Touch. Going to Zymol it later today. The Best of Show added gloss and a surface feel that no other Carnuba has before. It did not really add any more depth to the finish than the Swisswx Onyx before did, but added...

    Drying your car

    I also tend to get the water of the best I can with the drying towel, I dont worry to much about all the drips/runs etc, I get these with a ultra plush micropak MF towel after.
