    A much better way to wash the car

    Rather it was Alan and Ali ....
  2. Rich

    what about this?

    Not a bad choice, will look good on Black - EX-p does not last very long - better of with a more durable sealant for winter IMO

    i need new hardware (or soft as it may be...)

    Should not be a problem. I use the yellow foam apllicators when using products by here, never bother with anything else as they seem to do the job.

    What's the quickest way to acheive a good appearence?

    SRP is a polish/ paint cleaner that leaves some protection, still needs sealant and/or wax over it. JEFFS Werkstatt Acrylic Jett Trigger Sealant - http://www.polishedbliss.co.uk/acatalog/pb214protect.html

    Thinking about these seats for my 182...Opinions?

    I sat in some at the show, and in a 197 they had a Donnington at the RWS. Not sure I really like them, they feel really thin and a bit flimsy at the top bit and fabric was hanging out from under the belt guides in the 197 so quality was a bit suss. They felt like they would hold you well and...

    Welcome to CS. Good colour choice on the 182.

    197

    The ones I have drove had 6 and 8k on them, which was in comparison to 4k on the demo 182 I drove in Dec 2004 so for me speed wise I think there is a fair indication as to speed. Fully agree on the gearbox and the brakes felt good,

    Best polish/wax etc for silver cars

    We did a few hundred miles today hunting, Mate drove from Bristol to Glos to pick me up - one to view in Brum - onto another in Tamworth - then all the way down to Oxford - back Glos to drop me off and on home back to Bristol. Found a very promising looking one in the end though.

    Best polish/wax etc for silver cars

    AG Super Resin only dusts if you use to much. Anything you wipe of with waxes and polishes is just excess wasted product. I have not used Gold Glass for years but the origional formula was one of the biggest pain in the ares products to remove ever!

    waxing black cars

    Not using Collinite at the moment as I have Megs 16 instead. P21s looks great on all colours and does so on Black, but does not last aswell as the Zymols in Winter, in summer use Souveran and CG 50/50 have the edge on it. http://s2.photobucket.com/albums/y32/r-jay-clio/P21s/...

    waxing black cars

    The above a combos for on good shape paint. Any swirls and marks etc need to be addressed first with some proper compounds. I use either the Menzerna or Poorboys polishes as needed first.

    Anything to watch for early mk2 172's?

    Going to look at some 172's today aswell - So the early ones have no traction/esp at all, the first batch 52's plates? - got it but it is not switchable? Later cars got it with the switchable system like the 182 has? Cheers Rich

    waxing black cars

    SRP, EGP with a decent carnuba over the top works fine as a winter combo, last and looks great, Meguiars 16 looks ok. The consumer range Gold Glass, NXT and 3 stage are not that great. AG UDS is an okay one step product, but wont work in the AG SRP and EGP processm its not that easy on or off I...
