is it just mine or everyone elses standard cd player gets really hot after a while and it stops playing the cd and ejects it - the cd is always hot after this!?!
in turn, i cant play a cd over and over during my trips from leeds to london.
^^ haha! i know - believe me i want to get one...maybe at the end of this month after payday! but im afraid ill just end up spending a whole lot more on pads and stuff.... :-(
haha! dont think i would trust my dad to clean my car! can you be my dad too? but i only have a 1.2 compared to your sons v6! :-(
i do wash my car regularly - but its the combination of washing/claying/waxing/polishing that im not used to. before, it used to be just washing and polishing! (i...
LOL - i dont think i want to wash it again...i still have a headache now! i dont know how you guys do it for almost the whole day cleaning the car!
can i use the spray that came with the clay? i think its a detailing spray...

i have another question - if i decide to put another layer of wax on the car tomorrow...do i need to dust off the car first? or spray a mist of water and wipe it clean first before re-applying another layer of wax?
oh - and i LOVE the smell of the meguiars line! (the detailing spray that comes...
i dont know how to add pics! i took a couple but the sun was hiding behind some clouds!
im gonna finish the car tomorrow - need to do the glass and the bumpers! arms were just aching after 7 hours of cleaning!
thats a very nice car, 16v clio!
yeah - i think i put it on too hard! its not easy to get off...i found i had to rub kinda hardish to get all traces off! hence my arms are aching now!
the back to black stuff and windows - ill have to do either tonight or tomorrow! im too tired now! LOL
but damn! this NXT wax really is...
cool! thanks! i think ill re-polish it tomorrow...my arms are aching bad now...and im just waiting for the wax to dry so i can buff it then apply the back to black stuff on the bumpers!
Man! this is hard work!!! it better not rain this weekend or early next week! ill cry hard otherwise!
think ive put a couple of long faint scratches already! :oops:
but never mind - its part of the learning process i think!
just putting NXT wax now...my arms are aching! been outside since 7am! :-(
do i need to leave the wax a certain period before buffing? like cover the whole car first...
Just washed the car - gonna dry it in a bit then im gonna use my new Meguiars Clay Bar for the first time. I hear nothing but excellent stuff about this so im gonna try it now and see! Cant wait!
Then after that - I have my Meguiars NXT Wax that i ordered alongside the clay! Cant wait for the...
Hello - my order of Megs Quik Clay and NXT Tech Wax have arrived today so i am just looking forward to this weekend and hope its sunny and dry.
I need to ask tho, is the NXT a wax? what i mean is, after washing the car and using the clay bar, do i need to wash the car again?
and more...
hi - which one is better? reason im asking is id like to try the clay bar on my 6month old clio..and ive found two on eBay...(since i dont know where to get them from)
thanks for any info...
didnt even know it was on the hand book - i read it when i first got the car...but either its not on it or i missed it. have to have another look tonight!
OH MY GOD!!!! im so so so glad someones asked this question as its been bugging me for ages! and ive annoyed so many people asking where the temp sensor was!!!
and ive also wondered why theres a nipple on my wing mirror when the other side doesnt have it! and some clios dont have it at all! i...
Hmm, just looked at DAYs pic..and i think my car is like that..so i think i DID get pearl black..but i still want to be sure.
i would have thought pearl would be shinier than gold?
never mind, my next car (182 or whatever theyll have in 2yrs time), ill definitely get something other than...
im comparing your pic to my car now looking from the window..and mine looks kinda grey-ish...ive only had it 6 months and ive taken care of it..tho ive never waxed it! just used auto-glym polish....do you think thats the case? i cant remember what my car looked like when i first picked it up...
damn! i want mine to look like that!!!!!!!!
ive never had my car looking as shiny as that! even tho i take pics of it ALL the time right after ive washed it! and i always use my eos 20d on RAW for taking the pics!!!
ill post a pic of mine when i get home on friday...
yep - mine looks like that...with all the glitter....and its only a 1.2 also....
but for some reason...i expect it to still be really shiny...and i take care of my car!!! wash it all the time!
where do i find the paint code?
Im kinda curious now because i think my black clio was shipped as Metallic Gold Black when I asked for Pearl Black...im not sure what the difference is but i see small glitters on the cars surface which leads me to think its gold black.
anyway - question is: how do you know if its metallic or...
can i have the wheels then please?
seriously tho...sorry to hear that...hope insurance gives you another new car....so you can give the wheels to me?! ;)
