Please correct me if i'm wrong.
But a polish is slightly abrasive which removes dull or oxidised paint?
A seal will seal in the polish and help protect the paint?
A wax simply adds depth and shine and also helps to protect like a skin like layer it puts over the paint??
How often should...
Beginning to wish I never bought the M seal now :mad:
Hasn't even arrived yet - they do say if your not happy return it.
My car is flame red so maybe it'll be ok?
cheers for the comments mate.
So what brand / product do people recommend for each of the things below:-
Wash
Dry
Clay
Polish
Seal
Wax
Alloys
Tyres
Just interested to see if people mix and match.
Also can I just leave the car after I've sealed it, or should I wax it too?
Cheers
Hi,
I don't know about anybody else, but I'm a massive fan of Chemical Guys stuff, What are other peoples thoughts?
Got a few products already but just made another couple of orders. I quite new to the proper washing thing - but am quickly finding myself addicted to buying more products...
I was in the Golf with the R32 wheels, you passed by. The Golf is my bro's car he was just givin me a lift back from HillPower after droppin my 172 in!

Does anyone have a speed camera alerter?
If so which would you recommend me purchasing and why?
Are the satnav with in built snoopers better than just standard snoopers?
Any help welcomed

Hey,
Just interested to know a bit more about ECU's - Basically I know f**k all about them.
I have a 172 and wanted to know whether you can simply get a software upgrade to the standard ECU to just improve fuel economy etc?????
I might sound like a right t**t askin this, but i'm positive...
You went past me in the outside lane, I was crawling along in the silver 172 - your car looked lowered and sounded quite loud, oh and there was a GB sticker in the back window. Anyone on here????
This morning, you were parked up right next to a pub in willington (don't know the name, but its the one opposite the green man)
Looked like it needed clean - but i'll forgive ya seein as it did snow yesterday!! :)
fuckin lovin it mate!! love it down the motorway and just caining most cars that try it on!! Take tonight for instance, had a brand spankin new lexus right on my back bumper for most of the way home from work, he follows me all the way to the a38 and is stickin to me like glue, get on the a38...
Just some subtle stuff like, clear side indicators, a decent set of rear lights that don't look chav, xenon sidelights or sidelightless - ain't decided yet. A good sound system to fit in to existing speaker spaces - can't have a rear shelf or anything cos i have to take my dog in the boot - it...
Some pics of my 172. Sorry about the quality, they were taken on my mobile. Thought i'd post em even though the car is totally standard (apart from magic tree air freshener ;) )
Got some subtle plans lined up for it when money allows :)
Smashing - so are these Phillips what everyone would recommend as a good replacement? Are they gonna look good when just having sidelights on?
Also how easy are the bulbs to fit - can you open up the headlight unit easy enough etc?
cheers guys
Hopefully someone can answer this for me.
How the hell do you get rid of the sick yellow lights that Renault decided to put in the headlight units along with the blue Xenons? Went past an RS today and only the Xenons seemed to be turned on - can you just take the old style bulbs out and leave...
