She sure did till she saw the light!

They are yes, not sure who they are made by.

Car loks great Craig. d4nn3h I am sure after 5 hours graft you car must look good. Silver though will never look like Black, I have a 306 in Silver and cat't get it to look like the 182.

Last Touch can be purchased cheaply ( 1 US gallon - about 3 litres ) for 18 quid, so cheap enough to spray all over wet panels when you dry. Using the noraml stuff would mean getting through lots of bottles. The Last Touch can be watered down 50/50 with water for claying and drying so it goes...

It does not get dirty very often Dee, but was worth it for the fun drive to collect your new toy.

As the normal, make sure it is warm and you use plenty of QD or Soapy wayer with it. Sealants wise good old Autoglym Extra Gloss or JEFFS Werkstatt Acrylic Jett Trigger for me, over an Autoglym Super Resin base layer.

Sonus Drying towels with Last Touch quick detailer here too.

Was -3 on the M5 this morning, ice was forming on the mirrors from the moisture from the Fog As soon as we set up from South Glos to Oxford to pick up the 172 the Sun was out for the rest of the day :cool:

LOL Nope 200 miles around Glos/Oxford and the Cotswolds was how the car looked. A quick wash this afternoon and you have the cleaned pics! The car was waxed last Sunday, and was just washed, dried and quick detail quickly before I tucked her away.

I did 200 miles in it today just for you ;)

Best wax I have used to date Full Gallery here http://www.richtreen.co.uk/images/dee172/ Warning though.... My car dirty for once ;)

It should do, depending on how long it has been on there. Use with caution it is aggressive stuff.

A gallery of mate my freind Dee's (DeeDee) on here after we collected it earlier http://www.richtreen.co.uk/images/dee172/

Get with Ali, the best on a 172 ;) Full Gallery here: http://www.richtreen.co.uk/images/dee172 Gave it a quick wash when we got it back, needs some work on the arches and wheels then I will be treating it to a few coats of Zymol tomorrow for Dee - so it should look even cleaner this time...

Megs do an overspray clay - http://www.meguiars.co.uk/

Come in at more like 150 with VAT these days

ph-quick a.k.a ph-ugly

Not done any white cars for years. I use AG SRP and EGP on my dads white van! I used the same combo topped with P21s wax on my mates old white RS Escort.

How to clean ...... GUIDE READ ME NOW ;)

Looking good. I am not suprised Scratch X did not touch overspray it is fairly mild, I would get some overspray clay to remove it.

You applied 83 by hand, is your arm about to drop off? I would follow it up with Megs 80 myself. Then glaze and wax or SRP, EGP and wax.

4047 to be accurate ;)

Over EGP I would go woth Sonax Gloss Shampoo or Duragloss Wash, both leave a better finish here over EGP layers than the Chemical Guys stuff which prefer on Carnuba finishes. If you want a good shampoo to buy in bulk look into Meguiars Shampoo Plus.

It is a nice feeling ... of course I have .... Dry and sunny but cold so they say!

I don't know about that!

Whats the mileage on it know? Know what you mean, not driven mine for weeks, but am going for a cross Cotswolds run tommorrow in it and can't wait, been looking forward to it all day. Not using it everyday means it has never lost the magic and feels like a new car each time I use it.

I would replace the M Seal with Autoglym Extra Gloss Protection. M-seal last no longer than than a wax here for me. Month Tops. Looks wise it also leaves the paint a little washed out no as deep looking as other sealants Couple of coats of EGP will doubleand possibly triple the length of...

Couple I have in the mean time Justins

Can you wait till tommorrow? Picking one up with a friend tomorrow morning.
