    LY 182 Hertford

    Think it was Andyb88 along ware road last night, you flashed me so I guess you spotted me rather then me spotting you. Not sure if you saw but I only realised what was going on after i'd passed so gave the hazards a quick flash.

    It really is worth putting the time in. You'll wonder why you hadn't done it sooner. I'm pretty sure its the sticker that says when they were F1 world champions. Its on all the R27's and I think the R26's to. Cheers for all the comments people

    Thank you I've been reading through a lot of detailling threads on here lately, and can see how much knowledge you and JD have just from the amount of advice and tips you give to everyone. Its very useful and helps to make decisions on products or to get the desired finish.

    I'd never really thought about shampoo damaging the wax but it makes sense now you've mentioned it. Looks like the paypal account may be gettign a bit more use this week then, I wanted to get a decent drying towel too any recommendations?

    Ok brilliant I'll be doing that this weekend, unfortunately I'm not sure how long i'll be able to enjoy it as i'm going to be selling up to go travelling soon. other then waxing once its dried would you say that is a standard wash, that i should be doing weekly? Or would the snow foam effect...

    Cheers guys. Although it took me the entire weekend it all seems worth it, just to see the shine coming from it. Would it be to late to add another layer of wax next weekend?

    Finally got round to purchasing some polish and wax last week, after I was given a machine polisher for christmas. I was advised by the wise car detailers and paul from i4detailing as to what products I would need to be using. So thank you to JD, todd100 and martijn_b from here and Paul at...

    What polish and wax/sealent should I use?

    Cheers JD I had a feeling you would say that but i didn't want to buy the wrong polish and do more damage then good. I've just noticed that I4detailing are doing a deal on dodo juice waxes so is there a glaze you would recommend from them?

    What polish and wax/sealent should I use?

    I'm struggling to find everything under one roof so to say. Clean your car has Menzerna 85RD is this much different to 85RE? Clearkote Red Moose glaze, and Dodo Juice Banana Armour I4detailing has Menzerna 85RE 5, but they only have Dodo Juice Lime Prime as a glaze, and Dodo Juice Banana...

    Its in need of some TLC at the moment after i got back from Le Mans last year I had caught the splitter and broke it and also had a stone chip on my passenger fog light, both of which I still need to replace. Give me a flash next time, i'm usually in a world of my own so never notice people...

    Not sure if I would have seen you either mate? Although there are a lot of 1*2's around and i'm not sure many of them realise why i'm looking expectantly of a wave. There is also a Megane 250 thats been floating around Hertford recently.

    What polish and wax/sealent should I use?

    I was given a Meguiars G220 Dual action polisher for Christmas. I've never really considered using a polishing machine as i know you can end up doing more damage then good to paint work, so i'm what i should be looking for to start out with? I have 2 applicator pads for it which are...

    2 days in a row now i've caught out by this. Now have 2 recurring alarms set an hour earlier then usual.

    I've put a flat spot in the back of it having some fun at the weekend :s I won't be missing it, but I might not be in mine. The only problem is i don't really know anyone off of here well enough to be borrowing wheels. I have put up a wanted thread and am looking at a black speedline on ebay to.

    They have taps scattered around the campsite but i wouldn't trust that. There is a supermarket in the near by village/town (not le mans) you can get everything you need from there. You can get the little gas burning hobs for about £10-£15 from macros, mines lasted 3 years and i'm only just...
