So when the QD has ran out i can mix up some soapy (as in, car wash type soap?) water to use instead then??
I managed to get out & wash the car today, washed, clayed, SRP & EGP
Took me hours..
very nice mate...
How do you keep those wheels soooo clean. I thought mine looked 'ok' until i saw yours :-(
black tar dots in all knooks & crannys on mine & nothing seems to shift it.
Thanks for the advice.
One more thing, after claying the car, do i just get straight on with polishing? or does it need a quick wash after?
Now i just need to get and do it lol!!
I've already talked myself out of it for today now.. got "other" things to do.
Sunday's the day :-)
I've decided to give my car a proper clean so have bought all the stuff (knowing me, i'll get bored & never actually use it though lol).
Got the water magnet thingy
clay bar
AG SRP & EGP
So i am wondering, after washing the car, do i dry it before using the clay?? or just spray that detailer...
that the blue one??.. see this everytime i'm down there.. always parked outside that pet shop next to halfords.
No one has owned up to it being theirs on here yet.. might need to buy a cliosport sticker to put on it ;-)
Was just going round a roundabout by coming from iron acton (by the great western business park) and as i went round, saw what looked like a Blue 172 cup going round it the other way, (towards iron acton)
Think the No. Plate started with 'HT'
But then again... i may be wrong, ws in a bit of a...
Spotted a silver 172 going down Gloucester rd towards town, i think it was an 02 plate with turini's.. around 1.30-2pm ish yesterday (saturday)
Lad gave me a little wave.
Anyone?
LadyS, i think i saw you the other day stopped by the beafeater (emersons green) in traffic, going on to the ring road...
(i couldn't quite see the plate, but it looked kind of like yours)
I just couldn't go on holiday without posting about the 2 cliosports i saw earlier..
1 Silver 172, over took me on the ring road (it's always the ring road!) between the sainsbury's (emersons) and beefeater roundabout stretch (you seemed to speed up after a new shape golf ;-).
It then went...
Mine's on 15k an no sign of wear at all. I'd be pretty annoyed if my seats look worn in the next 5k! & i do lots of short trips. (if thats any help to you)
Bristol... no where near scotland lol.. wouldn't mind visiting scotland one day though. (if that counts)
** those lyrics are definetly NOT airwolf by the way. It is The Littlest Hobo.
Nice!! lol
The pug is a Darkish blue 3 door 306 Dturbo. P reg (there a loads around though lol) it'll normally have the mrs driving it as she drives around this part of bristol most days for work. & it has the newer shape 306 alloys (like the gti-6)
I will honk on the horn, when i notice you...
after nearly a year of owning the cup, i still love it when you put petrol in on an evening & seeing it shining under the lights of the forecourt as you walk out.
love it..
Just been having a little go on polishing the lettering on mine.. that autosol stuff is hard to get out of the gaps between the lettering isn't it..!
Still needs a lot of work yet & some more grades of paper i think.
I can't find the asorted sandpaper packs in halfords with all the grades in :-(
nice work on the audi :-).. i didn't notice it to be honest, i was just about to go round the roundabout the opposite way to you.
was i in my cup.. Nope, was in the pug.
Most evenings it's the pug that goes out. Because i'm off work at the moment my car is always blocked in on the drive by...
