Thanks for that. Ill think of something else that 500 grit should be used for as a comparison. Having been in detailing for a long time, once again, 500 grit is far too coarse.

2000. 1500 if you really need to.

We've given you answers to everything you've asked. You started the thread on a public forum, we answered. We then showed concerns that you're not only "doing it how you've always done it" on your own car (incorrectly as we've pointed out), but also on other people's cars. We didn't start a...

C4 is old C1, roight? That. Shield vs Fk1000p I've not test. In fact, I've never used Shield. Ask Russ.

Rolling roaded at 288, but AMD is known for being a little on the positive side. I'd be happy with 270's. Pre boost leak it was kicking out 218+g/m2 on the VCDS logs, which equates to 273bhp (not sure why I'm going into so much detail in your Aston thread...)

I had one fitted as part of the Badger5 TIP setup and map. Took it off as soon as I got home and re-fitted the standard box with a green cotton filter lol.

I have less hair, I'm certain of it. Laura, I'll need to fit a mahoosive cone filter on the S3 first, then won't feel quite as mediocre!

Nice results JB, failing anything coming up after IPA wipedown. Recently reaslised the only plus point to not being able to wash the Panzer is that there will be no marring! Two months since a decent detail, protection still going strong, rain cleans it, not swirls!

Did Toby edit his post?

Definitely. I'm in a less frustrated mood today, so perhaps we can meet the real "us".

Meet up for an airport tunnels run in Dec? Done.

We comment because you "have the gear but no idea" so could be causing damage to other people's cars, giving the detailing world a bad name... Simple question, are you charging other people? This thread states "today I am doing my own car for once"...?!

Chap, don't get defensive, but you don't know what you're doing. You sealed over a wax. And in your other thread you're intent on detailing a high value car while questioning how to treat a soft top? Walk before you run and all that!

As above. Why are you doing someone else's car with little knowledge of soft tops?

:)

Spammer account presumably.

I have no idea about 200 second hand prices. So if that's cheaper than it should be I'll withdraw my comment.

You know I'm with you on the "you deserve the car" etc front. But, walking around Stockport/Stockport station on your own during winter? f**k that for a bunch of Aston keys. If work won't allow you to park on site, are there no long stay car parks/alternatives around? Yes Audi might be arses...

Hilarious, three years old and halved in value.

I recognise it, Chris. Sadly not. I dabbled in semi-Pro for a few years in the same way that Russ@MCC started off, i.e. all the gear and the right idea/insured/weekends. Full time role and moving to London kicked that into touch :dapprove:

We have more users with the word "detail" in their username than DW these days!

Nothing to add to the above, apart from perhaps suggesting looking at protecting it afterwards to minimise the number of times you need to clean it in your ownership...

LIKE.

I just post in the "What have you ordered" thread, tbh.

I'd still stay away from DA sanding. You're not after a quick fix like a dealer and I for one see a massive difference in feeling out scratches/paint repairs by hand.

I disagree. Most of my friends/family/etc bought fast Audis because of the option of 4x4 in a saloon/estate/hatchback, rather than a RangeRooney. Cheshire gets snow, we're the only ones that move about, unless you count the Cheshire mum's brigade (X5s, Cayennes etc). Next door neighbours...

The brakes are rubbish? Christ, glad he's not driven my S3...

Gents, I have decided to sell my Glasur and Carbon samples I bought off Dave not too long ago. I have; Zymol Carbon jar is approx 60ml, and the Glasur is a 50ml pot. PM me if interested.

I doubt there would be enough items. But it would get around the stupidity of charging £5 for a month's access on DW.

I take mine inside. Not worth the risk from the frost.
