For winter I would go with EGP x 2 and 16 X 2. Save the P21s for summer. Car will look great with either. 16 apply with foam hand pad, and remove with a Microfiber. I would apply EGP, leave for an hour, remove. Wait 12 hours, apply another coat of EGP, leave for an hour and remove. Wait 12...

#16 will out last the xxx and P21s. P21s looks great on Silver though. The Blitz spray sealant is well regarded, and easier to use than the EGP, but not seen any tests showing it last a british winter as yet. I am tempted to get some to try next time I do a CG order.

Clearkote VM Hand Glaze also works well, you can use it to clean glass and the rubber seals at the same time.

Only problem IMO on the Mseal is it is not in the same league of durability as the EGP.

Scary amounts of fuel when totalled up!

Lazy ;) .... I had a look but couldnt find anything.

LOL @ someone told you off. If they do now do touch up sticks thats good news. Get searching Marie ;)

Did not think you could get them? AFAIK you need to use one of the Rover colour ones that is close or get some made up using the paint code - 205-110

No real reason to do Klasse AIO and then a coat of SRP, both do the same thing though the SRP has more polishing ability. Ideally EGP needs 12 to 24 hours between layers but if you dont have the time then straight over the top as you planned. SRP and EGP work well on wheels. As for waxes, for...

B!tch :mad:

SRP works really well by PC. Depending on how much cut you want to give it either use on a polishing or finishing pad. It wont be a true glaze due to the nature of the product (SRP is a chamical paint cleaner and mild polish) but will follow up the sonus polishes nicely on a finishing pad.

My ex's after a Rich special - damn I want a raider, buy me one for Xmas Si?

2000 miles a year you cheeky git ;)

I wipe mine over with Glass cleaner spray as I do the glass, turns the cloth black but looks good after! You can use vinyl dressing on them if your well keen but may streak down the screen in the rain.

^^^^ Indeed Just be carefull. Tape only comes out for a machine polishing session.

Yeap I would.

Caught in the rain about 3 or 4 times now:( Damn you beat me by a pound ;)

LOL - My old chap is always saying ...

Close one there - I am really paranoid at pumps in my 306 after my old chap decided his derv van needed some unleaded! Never a problem with the 182 as it only ever gets Optimax.

Low miles don't mean short trips in all cases, mine is low mileage but always does decent runs when used. Also is making good power according to last weeks r/road run.

Oh - I don't know what to get you for Christmas now! ;)

Few!

I think what people are saying is comparing the Vee to a Golf GTi is odd as they are very different cars.

Very nice - Please Please Please ditch that nasty bit of sponge ( that is now on the floor!) for something more paint freindly!

If they have never been cleaned they will take a damn good scrubbing and a few applications of something on the insides then?

Just take the keys off your Dad! ;) I would have the GTi in addition to my 182 and be very very happy!

I tend to try and not use anything stronger than Autogylm Clean Wheels. Even then I would not like to use it more than. (I dont like acid based cleaners) Lots on here recommend fairy power spray. Hit them with something hard, ONCE and then polish and seal them and all you will need is soap and...

They are silly expensive at times - my 300mm IS f4L Prime cost nearly twice as much as the body, but I love it, as I do with the 70-200L. Both are so sharp and focus so fast. I am going to add another one to the collection after Xmas in the form of a 17-40 L and then start saving up for a better...

With Roy on this one the 182 seems to have bucket loads of grip in the wet, very very easy to push on in the wet, I am able to drive much quicker than my old 205 or 309 GTi, but knowing what they where like when you did get carried away and what happens when the grip is broken and your talent...

LOL @ the price of that! I would have gone for a canon just to take advantage of the great range of Canon glass though.
