[Eskiisbest]

Big thanks to Rich for putting me in the direction of some quality cleaning products. not got all the stuff he said yet but for a "Hand Job" it's not bad imo.

Dont pay attention to the wheel's =D

lol . Only jokin!!

Rich is probably the best person to get advice from. Mike 182 also has a lot of knowledge. He did a great job on my clio a couple of months back

Same advice as ever on Silver by hand.

Scratch X, SRP and EGP (which he has not got round to yet)

 

[JR]

ah fair enough, anything you would recamend if working by machine ?

 

[Rich]

Same SRP and EGP process but the SRP applied by machine and pre polished/treated with whatever polishes/compounds are required to remove the defects and create the gloss your looking for.

 

[JR]

ok thanks, am i correct i thinking the best way to remove defects from silver is in a dark room with the paint lit by halogens ?

When I get round to PCing my car I am going to go with the following:

Menzerna Final Finish (going to try the lightest one first before trying the harsher one, hopefully won't need the Intensive)
Sonus Paint Cleanser
Chemical Guys EZ Glaze II
Chemical Guys Body Blitz Spray Sealant or Jeffs Spray Sealant (or maybe neither if the weather holds out!)
Chemical Guys 50/50 Wax

I intend to PC the windows too with a polish then wipe over with a cleaning spray solution. Wheels are already protected with:

Autoglym Super Resin Polish
Chemical Guys Wheel Guard
Chemical Guys M Sealant (3 layers)
Collinite 476 Wax (2 layers)
- this combo seems to be working extremely well so far, so will keep this all on.

Tyres treated with Black Fire Tyre Dressing, all plastics dressed with AutoGlym Plastic and Vinyl) including wheel wells.

Interior already done using Autosol on pedals, Chemical Guys Silk Shine Dressing on all plastics, and then a leather cleaner/ protector on the seats (which I can't remember off my head).

Will get pictures up when this all gets done but should be sexual!

Justin/A18XHO Halfords ran out of paint and only got stock of it in today so looking like i'll be finishing them at the weekend =) (finally)

A18XHO wish the drive was mine =(

Brands - Id use some chemical guys butter wet wax ogver the top of the collinite to give it the extra bling factor.

LOL - "Lusty offended me with his Buuter Wet Wax"

 

[Brand86]

Anyone who paints a car in flip paint needs to be shown the door... unless it is a TVR of course

 

[Rich]

Ban Lusty CAMPaign ™ ?

 

[JD]

lmfao rich, classic!!

isnt butter wet wax the key to lustys tan as well?

jamie

 

[Rich]

Could be right there, he uses it over Orange Colour Magic Polish IIRC !

 

[lusty v-tec]

At the starcity meet Rich couldn't get enough of lusty and her flip paint. Taking pics of her here there and everywhere.

and yes - I love butter wet wax

 

[Rich]

LOL a few pictures Lusty!

Butter Wet does not bead very tightly ?

 

[lusty v-tec]

it didnt have butter wet on at that time. I only started using it after starcity.

Thats megs crystal carnauba wax on the pics

 

[Brand86]

Loving the moody sophistication of these shots....!

She does look good though lets face it. Her body and colour simply defies reality imo.

On the first pic where the light is brighest on the bonnet you can see the carbon fibre weave under the paint

Must be getting old... I can't see any weave!!

As for defying reality... a solid object walking through rock, or a statue coming to life would defy reality... not sure some flip paint and a bodykit has the same effect buddy!

the weave is clearer in normal day light but I can still see it on them pics.

In my imagination she defies reality. :approve:
