Hai faive team.
AS Paul has said Laura, you are best of with the SRP EGP combo. You could pay anything from 85-200 quid for paint correction and even more for a full detail. So up to you :)
Been detailing non stop over the weekend ya ghey, showed the pic to Naith, he said it looks like someone from Salford has been round (lack of wheels) ;)
Edit; didn't know you were up, Paul ;)
Stop whoring yourself out Luke ;)
As that man has said, Laura, only way to getting looking special is to have a full detail. This will not just be good for FCS, but for the rest of this year and well into the next.

Very controversial, Jonny ;)
In all honesty, the snow foam is only of use if your is highly waxed and water all beads off. Thus the dust doesn't stick and the snow foam/power hose gets it all off with not a lot of need for scrubbing :)
I was about to suggest the same Dan.
Russ, good list. Quick point. I don't like SFX pads, as I feel for the money there are better (lakeland county).
Also what polishes are you going for?
Jamie
Would rather you ask than cause your car damage Jon.
You should do a two stage polish if you are machine polishing mate. It is almost a waste of product and your time to just do one. You need to cut then buff to a finish as most cutting compounds are quite harsh and do not leave a glossy...
Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project
Haha, that horn was immense mate, everyone chuckled as you left.
Are you coming down in the evening for FCS, i.e. in convoy with teh NW crew?!
I will be keeping both, Luke mate. I feel that for mine, the PC is just fine and buzzes through the marks (or lack there of!) in seconds.
Rotary will be for the next purchase ;)
Sorry Matt, you are right, I had made the assumption it was a typo from the member off here.
I was hoping that either yourself or CYC would come back. Personal opinions from yourself on Kestrel vs Silverstorm please?
Luke, bumping this due to a recent email from a customer off here.
I have the option on one of these;

I don't use a rotary but have always thought of upgrading for certain...
In that case, Super Resin Polish is your best bet. Very easy to apply and take off. It does contain fillers so will make the paint work look very good and fill some of the scratches making the paint work look a little dull.
Ah, missed that. Thanks. I need to get in this section more Dan, have some great shots but never posted.
Rough idea on when the next competition will start?

It was one thread below yours . . . so the first thread in this section.
Should've gone to spec savers lol ;)
:rasp:
Depends what you want to achieve Dave.
There are several options open to you. You can hand polish with something simple like Auto Glym Super Resin Polish (available in any Halfords etc). This will make the car look a lot better, but will not last that long (make sure that you seal the paint...
Mark,
All ordered up, but unsure whether I selected Cliosport parking pass. Not an issue as I will sort it. Just a quick thanks for the help via PM, previously.
