Credit to you mate! That's a long time! Any reason you haven't changed?

I had a 1.2 extreme. 172 Rep really. Have a few pics somewhere! Don't think I even posted when I owned it!

The 3M is and always has been the best one on the market mate. It's not cheap. I think I have a spare one somewhere. Have a look at most detailers andvtheir machines havevthe 3m one. Still crazy they never took over the 75mm market.

I understand you wanting it back but at least you can buy another! :)

Nick at SL Restoration. It'll certainly be fixed right!

Lols! The missus will be bloody thrilled with that!

Video is on the first page guys. Working fine for me. Convertible sucks. I love coupes. Much cooler oh and I have a 4 year old fashion accessory. She wouldn't like the boot.

Flol at £500 for a respray. I could leave everything on the car and not be able to do it RIGHT for that money! Mental! I'm sure it looks awesome! To the OP get rid of the car and start again fresh.

I wouldn't bother with EGP mate. Blackhole then AG HD 2x panels at a time depending on heat and conditions.

Nah not for a spray one like that mate. Get some of these... http://www.i4detailing.co.uk/acatalog/Wax___Sealant_Applictor_Pad.html Simply brilliant for spreading spray sealants then move with an MF. :) Get the Blue hex pad mate. Great for glazing.

AG HD is very good mate. Will last a very long time. :)

Ah another spin on it! I sees your point. Sadly his mate will be pulling even dirtier birds by actually going out to the pub for a few beers, OP will not be able to afford that. Lets add the price of the car and upkeep of a ten year old 172... Now who is baller?

Glazing is fine with most pads mate. Blue, Red, Black all quite soft. So you have hex Red and Black?

It's nearly £300 a month to insure a 10 year old Clio. Just think about that for a second.

Flol! That'll help! Mock me! :o Comes with some... http://gtechniq.com/shop/3s-for-cars/exterior-coatings/g1-clearvision-smart-glass/

Oh hi there!

But he's not an amazing car. If he was driving a 182 or 172 I could maybe understand but what's the real difference between a nice cheap puddle jumper and a 1.4 Clio? Nothing except pissing insurance money up against the wall. I just don't see how it makes sense at all.

Well a good thing is to head up the grades. So maybe 1500 then 2000 then 2500 and get some aggressive hand polish or something. Got someone local with a polisher?

That's not going to happen mate. I know headlights are easily done but imo it won't leave a good enough finish.

It really just depends mate, DA and Rotary work with glazes on the right pad. I love showing people what can be done. Glazes and filling imo are still underrated. When doing other people cars pure correction is more important obviously but you can't polish a car forever if you know what I mean.

Get a new one or possibly try the car-pro system. Google Car-Pro glass polish.

Buy something more insurable. You'll realise in the long run this is the clever thing to do.

That will have less cut than the White pad though.

Jesus Christ!!!!!!!!!!

g101 is a good Apc. Autosmart sell it! Nice 1/4 Russ! Time a for a change of car I think! :o

203's is usually fine but the White pad will be quite harsh. You really need to be inspecting every panel at a time, you'll never know the combo is working if you know what I mean. Ford paint is pretty easy to work with imo. Getting the right combo and technique is key.

Stunning machine mate. Really nice even in that colour. Oh and baller plate surely worth more than the car!

Nice! :) It can be topped with any wax also Lou so fire in if need be. Z2 is a great base.
