I'm not covered or Emz?

Lol, old but always amusing :)

Nothing to do with tuition fella, not having a go, just amazed that you can get round a car that size in that sort of time, especially with the amount of tar noted etc (presuming you clayed the entire car?).

Yes I have mate. Fair enough with the five hours polishing, guess I am just thinking about tar removal and claying, but if that wasn't done it cuts the time down substantially.

Lol, nice. Yeah I saw those pics, very nice mate, got a real glint of shine in one picture on the rear left :approve:

Not the v10, but came in the other night and said "seen that softop version? Oooh errr :S" LOL!

Rotary or not, that is mega quick.

Not yet, driving the old man's daily for the moment and he'll take the 8 most days. Do that up until xmas, then red, black or white a3 3.2 quattro :)

FLOL, you joke ;) edit; woohoo 10,500th post!

Mine starts tonight. New brakes going on first then the big clean begins!

Lol, yeah the wet and dry went on the R8 exhausts since it hadn't been touched since factory. Came up an absolute treat and dad is relentless at checking them every wash now, making sure there is no build up!

Tell me about it lad :)

I know, I know. The Forearms got a different type of work out over the weekend at a mate's stag do. Karting FTW! 2nd out of 21 as well, well happy :approve: Everything starts tonight . . .

I take it he just doesn't like you anymore Emz ;) (only joking :))

The latter two points there are a definite must.

Lol @ SRP'ing it! I was under the impression that Honda paint was soft, but also quite tacky/sticky. Previous experience only though. I wouldn't think it would need anything to harsh from the Menz range Justin. Probably 203?

Steel wool has always been a must with exhausts. Usual for me is ITR, then steel wool with a decent metal polish, then finish with SRP to get rid of finer scratching.

Lol. Harsh though.

I know :( lol! Aye, it is better in terms of cost, as you will use a lot of AG ITR, and at 6.50 or what ever a bottle, that soon amounts up. Plus the massive can of Tardis means you are never popping up to halfrauds just after starting a detail, lol!

:o Tired, stag do at the weekend :)

Why did I think I was talking to Trev aka Tigger, lol! Must be the Monday morning syndrome! Plus you have a gay coloured car ;) You're in mainland UK you numpty, get it posted!!

Ship to a friend in the UK and then get them to send on?

Shouldn't do Richy, how long did you leave it for? Btw, good or bad thing, I put mine in a spray bottle and spray it on to the areas I need to de-tar. Leave it to work in, then wipe off. You realise that you need to polish after use though, right?

Aye, washing machine is usually safe enough. Otherwise, if you are worried in anyway Trev, try hand washing them.

Very good stuff, for bulk. AG Intensive Tar Remover is just as good, but is expensive for the amount you are likely to use.

Lakeland County pads. For n00bs DAs are the best bet as Kev has stated. They do achieve the necessary break down of polishes . . . otherwise I would have upgraded years ago. I have not seen the need for a rotary yet. Yes time factors would make me move in readiness for the German paint coming...

Good work Russ, but amazed you got round that in 8 hours! 8 hours would see me for a Clio sized car, i.e. 10am-6pm, but not something larger like a Golf!

Pm'd chap.

Welcome to come to mine in the nw mate?

No she's not mate. You around this area? Should see mine (for the next week only though) around AE and wilm.
