Clio Detail.



I had wednesday off work so thought id give the clio an interior clean, wash, glaze and wax.
Ended up correcting the paint lol.
So interior was first of course. Needs a real good clean but i dont have any interior stuff, next on the list.

After polishing, rinsed car down. Applied RMG by machine followed by carnauba liquid wax. This pic really shows the colour imo.

Cheers for looking c+c welcome.

Looks very clean. I don't like where you have that cliosport.net sticker though. looks out of place on the moulding.
 
Headlight shot :D

Where's your alloy gone?

The other wheel is punctured on the sidewall, so im in a dilemma because i have 172 alloys sitting here needing tyres :-/

Cheers mate. I know, i wasn't too sure myself but i wanted to be different.
 
  Clio 197
looking good, cant believe how clean your clay bar was though - i put up pictures last weekend of mine after claying and the bar was in a right state :)
 
Cheers :) The sun has fucked it :( next on the list is roof and bonnet painting. Tbh the whole car needs a respray but it's not worth it. Never a black car again.

Really showing the specks in the paint well there, Nice.

Being black, I bet it's filthy aleady!

I'm pleased to say i've just invested in snow foam, mainly from seeing it so widely used by everyone on here

Thanks gally :). I get everything off the internet from the U.K, mainly monza, and ive started using Martijns company in the Netherlands. I cant get tardis or 3m glass cleaner, i think they are the only 2 things so not too bad.
Moved here when i was 13-14, parents have always wanted to move away from Britain. It's ok, i do miss the U.K though :eek:.
