Yeap - hence why you need to be going for a proper custom ones. Ideally made for the car but they are not cheap. Mate has one for his Cosssie made by the people in rmccardal poss above.
Top notch but was about 300 quid for an outdoor all weather one.
Not looking that way at the moment think the trophy still has 00's well and truely in its grasp!
You seem happy to Quote EVO on the 197 ... So you may want to read read what Evo think of the 197 now they have tested it back to back with some other hatches over here.
LOL I thought exactly...
Depends on time. I normally set a day aside for a big clean.
Swirl removal - Panel by panel
Polish - Panel by panel
Polishes dont need to sit, they are reasy for wipe of straight away.
When I am happy, sealant to the whole car in most cases
As long as its is soft, is kneaded to give a a clean face regular, plenty of lubrication you will be fine.
Warm water helps and a blast in the microwave is usefull in winter moths. Should be fine on warm days. Dont do it in direct sunlight tho.
Tim I was going to grab some Final Polish II for use on my own car but I am liking the idea of the PO85RD now as I really only want to add gloss.
But for times when I do need it - What have you been using before it for the swirl removal? Intensive Polish?
Cheers

Not good chap :(
Fairly local to me as well, which way where you heading, from Swindon down to the roundabout?
It is such a Blackspot there they want to knock down the pub and replace the roundabout and pub with some kind of tunnel I am told.
I refuse to use anything that makes the plastic inside look any different to the way it left the factory, I hate any sort of fake sheen or gloss, no way I would use AG Vinyl and Rubber inside anymore. Used to on my old 306. If you want high gloss AG Vinyl and Rubber will do it!
I don't ever thing of it as being soft, I have had my old school 205 and 309 GTi's but these days I love all the creature comforts of the Full Fat 182. I can still cover more ground than I could in either of my hardcore old school GTis in the same amount of time, and have the aircon on keeping...
Great guide here but it may be memebers only

For good shine you need to wash, clay paint clean, polish and seal/wax.
Autoglym Super Resin is a good product, top it with there Extra Gloss Sealnt for good lasting protection. You coulkd then...
