He gave me a quick demo and, to the untrained like me, it looked perfect. I'll only be using it to do up the house so it doesn't need to last years

I asked @dann2707 the same thing the other day - before asking my FIL who has a bazillion tools. He bought this one a few weeks back and used it a bunch of times whilst building his new garage, said it works perfectly and is waaaaay cheaper...

I somehow managed to not have my car, or me, in a single picture. Probably for the best though, I was hungover as balls and sweating like Clart in a playground by the end of it. Good meet chaps. Great to put some faces to names. Sign me up for the next one 👌

Just about to give mine a quick once over too. It will only rain if i put the Semi slicks on 🤣

they went 3/4 throttle so the graph looks good but gives them the secret advantage ;)

Im always super impressed at the skill level involved in building engines. I really really fancy giving it a crack one day - any tips on a learning platform? Im sure Youtube is utterly awash with videos but id prefer something more legitimate and dont mind paying. Fingers crossed my brother...

As @imprezaworks has commented on machines, ill follow up with the latter part. For a beginner, Meguiars Ultimate Compound and Polish will probably be all you'll need. Theyre decent, not too expensive and do the job well. Prepare to need to spend quite a bit on pads. I used the Chemical Guys...

name change then mate, sorry, its out of my hands. @Sunglasses_Ron - 'Not Touring Rob' please x

If buying new @Daniel , id go with SiRamik Lustrous Plus. Recently bought a bottle off detailingworld and its insane so far. Lots of reports of it lasting 12+ months. Not the most mindblowing beading but self cleaning and staying power are reported to be very very good. Ive had it on for ~4...

Uk Pothole fund? Joking aside - It would be some form of Cancer Charity that would get my vote

Look forward to seeing you there in the Auris mate

Date dependent, yep! Sign me up Time for you lot to experience the gold wheels

I have a George mate. Henry's cousin? 🤣 The thing gets put through the f**king ringer. Ive used it for all sorts and its decent. Suction isnt perfect (lol) but it does the job, just leaves whatever youre doing a little damp. But thats okay for me! Id recommend one

Its in my diary but im just trying to wrap my head around financials currently. Got a looooot on. House purchase is looming, various holidays, a TD in August already....oh, and the 140 needs a grand in parts before the next TD.... Im trying!

Cheers mate! For the money I'm gonna spend on one, circa £70, I can see it paying itself back in time over the long run. Plus I can use it round the house too. Win win!

Steam Cleaners? Anyone use them? Any good?

Snapped up a new product to me on Detailingworld. SiRamik Lustrous Graphine Spray Sealant. Reports on there are bonkers. Spray, level with a damp mf towel, buff and then 12+ months of insane beading. Really excited to give it a go on the BM. I dont get time to do my own car often now as im...

Drive everywhere at 70? (Sorry, thats all I got)

Fusso sounds similar, application wise, to the Infinity Wax Synergy Wax I have. Utter b**ch to use but lasts forever and looks good. Acts like a ceramic too in regards to water. Only issue is, it stinks to high heaven

I only had Megs Polish and Compound at the time I think. Compound was the go to, as well as the heaviest cut cone I had at the time. Worked pretty well considering but if youre shooting for perfection, the only logical solution seems to be these 1 inch micro polishers which are almost as much as...

I find wheels a proper PITA. I eventually ended up using some foam cone polishers I picked up cheap off ebay which attached to a drill. Usual method - start light (in terms of cut) and work your way up. Turns out, the clearcoat on BMW wheels is just as hard as on the paint itself 🤣

Literally the first question I asked 🤣 🤣 - 'Are either car black?' Thankfully theyre both that metallic grey colour!

Actually, just double checked. as the Defender is used, it would be £1000 from them for a 2 stage polish and coating. Jesus. Im in the wrong job 🤣 🤣

I dont mind the graft, I quite enjoy the therapy of it (im weird, I know). Garage is the only question at the moment. But I think I might have a solution for that - my garage currently has some rubbish ford in it 🤣. Just looking at a local company to me: New Cars (sub 1000 miles) for the...

After some pricing advice really. A really good family friend has approached me about coating their new cars - a Tesla Model Y and a new Defender (the commercial one). The Tesla is new so shouldnt need much correcting but the defender will definitely need it. Theyre really good friends so I...

O2 used to be pretty good with deals. Like you, ive been with them forever. Recently though, they had begun to take the piss. I was on some ridiculous data plan (200gb?!) and unlimited everything else - was £20/month iirc. It then just kept going up, 25, then 30. Recently the wife pointed out it...

My s20 had one too. Need to get one ordered actually. Phones always in and out of my pocket for work and I get weird about scratches so ill get on amazon

So the 'Tornado Blaster' thingy I bought - utter shite. Air leaks through the end without even touching the trigger and the inner tube (that seemingly makes the 'tornado') shot off at a million mph into the dashboard of a near brand new porsche i was working on. Wont stay on at all now. Emailed...
