    Ibis White Audi TT New Car Protection Detail

    I actually like the fact they offered TDI, sports car looks and nice Mpg depending on job. So FU?

    Very very impressive. Just watch and see how much that simple stat of Mpg changes peoples opinions toward them and has ore people looking to buy. Day and age we are in. Speed, fun and fuel economy is hard to find. Bravo Ford.

    No the plush one is great, thought it was a cheap Blue one you might have been using. And you're patting dry so no harm there. The wiping over with reload once a month can obviously cause issues. The fact you're doing a lot of miles or it seems to get dirty says it's going to be covered in...

    Not quite mate, spray on the whole car and then you actually power wash it off. Dilute 50/50 though and don't let it dry on the paintwork before PW'ing off. What drying towel are you using? Also reload should only be once every 3 months really mate. A QD can be used between washes but ideally...

    Ibis White Audi TT New Car Protection Detail

    Really came up well mate, found it a tad strange there was no polishing involved? Especially after claying which inflict micro-marring in itself. Not picking holes as it's a superb protection detail just curious.

    You not have the Cquartz Mitt? They do need looking after to be fair. 2BM also? ValetPro is the other SF mate, well priced and does what it says on the tin. Is you shampoo nice and slick? Are you drying the car or leaving to air dry? Swirls in the most parts can come from the drying stage.

    Most people i've heard didn't actually rate it. Great idea in principle but hard to pull of, just dilute the CP like Dave does and then SF after. SFs are much of muchness hence Russ now using the VP stuff, good price and does what the rest do. Is CP really as safe as AF make out? Have you...

    It would probably but may get diluted too much, hence why they brought out avalanche. I personally would spray the CP on then snow foam after it has dwelled.

    Ah my apologies. Now it makes sense. Because the alu plate is now Blue and is trimmed to follow the bumper it's impossible to notice but yes you would maybe see about 1/2 inch of it if you looked right under the car. I think it looked superb. Very OE finish to the bumper and adding much...

    Ah I see i'm not sure "dry edges" is the correct terminology chap it implies something is wrong with the panel finish. Every area that could be coated, was. As you'll see the 2 front wings, which i'm sure you're speaking about needed so little basecoat (colour) the rest is lacquer. The...

    I possible know what your going to say but i'll let you go first. For the avoidance of doubt there are no dry edges.

    You mean the lower air guide/belly tray. Can you point out the dry edges?

    Clio V6 Front End Restoration

    Sorry mate was just a passing comment. With 3 stage pearls the actual pearl itself that is applied over the ground coat (green in this case) is very thin and opaque. It provides very little "coverage" so takes many coats to actually get the correct shade etc. Electric Orange, Velocity Red...

    Our colour library is probably one of the biggest physical libraries in Britain. Reps are shocked when they come in and see the amount of colours and shades we keep. We do pride ourselves on our paint matching. We actually have 32 shades of the White Pearl on the Laguna Coupe probably the most...

    Have you tried Pm'ing him? I can't find the tweet mate. 99% sure it was MF. Some of those look very high for being on springs. http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?684580-Mark-Fish-and-Eibach-Springs Look at the pics in there mate.

    It hasn't mate thanks for leading me onto my next point. One way to ruin a colour is pressures but if you know what you're doing that shouldn't really happen. Lols. See my above point. I'm an assessor mate.

    Lols! So we have both seen mate! It was more a joke about the drugs but again logical thinking dictates that the horizontal panel is no different to the vertical panel spraying wise. The gun is still pointing at the same angle.

    In a perfect world yes but that's not how it works, if ou think about a booth you have to open and close a door to get in and out, lots of variables. We are very strict in our place and our extraction is extremely good but it's unavoidable at times. You would never know once the car is finished...

    Of course you're likely to believe him, he's clearly on drugs but then again that's probably just what he's been taught. If that's the case then the bumper should have been sitting upright opposed to lying down. Anyone painting a bonnet flat off the car is mental. I'm not sure if you can get...

    I wouldn't disclose the total cost chap. Including the rear of the car and inc vat you'll be 1k+. But then again this wasn't quite straight forward. To have your front end simply painted it would be a whole lot less. I'll put it a different way. If the bonnet was laid out flat, isn't there...
