Yeap the EVO article with the DC2 was best front fwd car not hot hatch.

Go with it on the polishing pad then for sure.

Nice boots.

Key is to clean and scrub the tyres well with a decent cleaner before applying the dressing.

Polishing or Finishing pad depending on the paint shape (I prefer it on Sonus DAS Green) Start of on 3 moving up to 4 or 5 until the polish is very thin needing very little removal and best of all no dust

From the convo I had from Pete, he was waiting for the newer vesrions to come back in stock. The Poorboys SSR range for a first time user are easy to use, and SSR 2.5 will work with the VAG clear just not as quickly as the Menzerna.

I have both the DAS and SFX kits plus the spot pads, aswell as some Lake Country finishing pads and cutting pads. Depending on the job in hand as to which I choose. The SFX Pads are are a touch more aggressive than the equivilent DAS ones.

He's weak ;)

Not you - the other Al http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=178640 You know the score Sir. Mines asleep in the garage below me all clean and warm.

I am sticking Ph-Ugly ones on my phase one when I get it until it's facelifted.

Which pads have you got Sonus? DAS or SFX DAS Orange - Cutting Green - Polishing Blue - Finishing SFX Yellow - Cutting White - Polishing Blue - Finishing

The R32 is Black. SSR 2.5 can finish down sealant/wax ready on VW Black, but a follow up with SSR 1 will be worth the extra step. I was pushed for time and went from SSR 2.5 on a light cut pad to sealant and it looked great. Try the SSR 1 on the polishing pad first, If not working SSR 2.5 on...

Tell that to Al he seems to think they look the same!

Bang in in the microwave first works well. Hate claying at this time of the year tho. Spring job for me.

Try the SSR 1 first see how it goes, VAG paint is normally hard, SSR 2.5 works well on the R32 I look after. As for the Nattys, I use my fingers to warm it a little and apply with a foam hand pad.

Quite old pics, but I would have thought back then just good old Autoglym Vinyl and Rubber.

Like my boy says above, Black Gold only on the 182. Pearl Black on the 172. Black Gold is where it is at.

Please dont bring him (weeman) in here he only well get upset and start throwing his toys out everywhere. Not a problem as it's you.

Try some clay, works by shearing of things stuck to the surface. You may need the more aggressive over spray type stuff though.

PE2's all year long.

Means you can clay the car without drying it first aswell, I find wash, rinse, claying with soap and water, another quick rinse and then drying, much faster than wash, dry, clay with QD and then clean up all the streaks etc left behind.

Mine always seems to go up these last few years - despite another years NCB and being a year older to. Bit of shopping around and it always is cheaper in the end.

Sealer refers to sealant, of which EGP is. Sealants as a rule should out last a wax, as they are a blend of waxes etc. The main shine comes from the polishing and paint prep itself. To increase gloss and depth spend more time polishing and glazing the paint. Selants and waxes are only the...

I am with Orange since they took over Wanadoo, seems fine here.

.... you will buy silver next time ;)

Nice!!!!!!

If it is anything more than light dust I would not risk anything less than a wash.

Do I remember the appeal of the RSi to you was it was rare Giles? On that token go for the Exclusive. A young lady round here has on, I like them. Other than that Black - it is the best, really show off your cleaning skills.
