Hope my local dealer gets one in Black

Sounds a lucky find if it was in the local paper, enjoy!

I stll want to see a Black one.

Think Bubbles has a cracked washer bottle aswell, known problem not sure how common.

Nice one, no 106 GTi then?

Wait till Sat when yours is all PC'd then Dave!

Sunset pic is stunning.

I took them for Alan, he asked ;)

My kit lens zoom ring makes a grinding noise and it is full of dust. Real peice of shite hence the 28-105. Yeah the EF 28-105mm f/3.5-4.5 II USM, rated as one of the best consumers zooms Canon do, has a metal body and feels worlds apart from the plastic tacky kit one. Shame it losses out on the...

I use Meguiars All Purpose Cleaner or AG Engine and Machine cleaner to clean tyres. Removes any browning etc and leaves them ready for a dressing. AG Rubber Plus (Trade range product) cleans and dresses in one go.

I dont think the AG V&R will bond to it hence the splatter. When I use Enduraace I just leave it at that. I would suggest Poorboys Bold and Bright.

Nice one Chris. Always good to see a picture being used. Managed to get one of mine on the cover of the Peugeot Sport club Magazine the other month.

Polishing is fine, waxing and sealing is normally the thing they tell you not to do while the paint cures. Most say only use a pure bodyshop safe polish for 30-60 days. But if your painter says its fine go with that he knows what paints he has used and how long it was in the oven for etc. I...

If you buy the Megauirs one it comes with Quick Detailer to use. I just use car shampoo mixed with water to clay, if going down that route get the stuff Alex sells here. http://www.seriousperformance.co.uk/sp/products/maintenance.php Just the clay bar on its own so works out cheap.

With which combo - SRP, EGP x2 and Poorboys Nattys Wax? Deep and wet, with a decent bit of flake pop. For a clearer look and more flake pop you need to swap to a clearer looking sealant than the EGP, such as poorboys EX-p which mutes nothing.

No probs. Most do the Autoglym bits at least.

Wash Dry Clay Scratch X in areas if needed. Super Resin Polish - panel at a time nice and thin, and remove. Autoglym Extra Gloss - Apply to the whole car as thin as possible, allow to cure 30-60 mins then remove. Multiple coats with give a deeper look and better protection.

To last SRP, EGP and Megs 16. For looks, AG SRP, Poorboys EX-p and either P21s, Pinnacle Signature or Poorboys Nattys. Using what you have: SRP, EGP x2 and Poorboys Nattys Wax All the above will give clear looks than 26 which tend to darken paint. The above will help the flake pop.

Best option for protection is a good sealant. Of the shelf you cant go wrong with Autoglym Extra Gloss Protection, 60-120 days protection is possible. For the ultimate protection worth looking into the Zaino Sytem http://www.advancedcarproducts.com/index.asp?id=1

If the paint is in good shape, with no swirl marks or defects to sort out. Grab Some Autoglym Super Resin and Some of there Extra Gloss Protection aswell. If you have any marks that need deeper polishing grab some Meguiars Scratch X. I apply it with a Meguiars yellow foam hand pads, and...

Many swirls?

Clay will sort that, as on the other thread lol, Paint cleaner will chemically clean ingrained grime off your paint rather than bonded contaminents which will take clay to shift.

More like Filth not p**n ;) If I see the Vee looking like that I will have to impound it!

Those toxic things take of the paint!

I hoped the same, and not that he was refuring to the standard issue orange peel!

LOL, Remember .... Give generously

Cleanser will chemically clean ingrained grime off, will struggle with bonded on above surface stuff like tar.

Halfords sell the Megs Kit. Replied in the General Chat post, claying will remove anything stuck to your paint the washing alone wont. What do you mean when you say bumpy?

Of course, every Ten quid you donate gets a point, 1 million points gets you a free PC'ing ;)
