Detailing in the dark



  Skoda Fabia vRS
im knackered lol

started at 1pm and ive had to abondon play because its gone dark, car still has EX-P on it waiting to be buffed off which ill have to do in the dark

i hate winter !

not had chance to do the roof, rear bumper, tailgate, and front bumper, will have to do those tomorrow, gives me another chance to do another EX-P layer i guess

Ex-p now there is a product I have not heard mentioned for long time!

This time of year sucks, 306 gets a wash and OCW spray wax once every 4-6 weeks, and the 182 has not been touched in ages.

I've had the same problem a few times recently and end up looking in the light and seeing I've still got product I've not buffed off because of it being dark.
 
  Skoda Fabia vRS
just buffed it now, EX-P had been on an hour, hopefully i got it all but no doubt in the morning ill have patches everywhere

using EX-P as its the only sealant ive got, didnt wanna wax it yet as im gonna Carlack it after xmas

I started at about noon, planned on at least cleaning the car well, SRPing by PC, windows and wheels and arches all dressed readyt for sealing and waxing over the week, but all I managed to get done wash the wash before it started to rain, I then had to drive to town so now its filthy again. A very productive afternoon. NOT. :(

I opened a new box of products that got delivered yesterday so more productive then mine ;)
 
Lupo is an absolute state, needs a good day spent on it, luckily a good mate of mine has kindly offered the use of his double garage so I will probably do the detail over a couple of days and test out the porter cable. Will mean buzzing about in mums Jazz for a few days though :cool:
 
Inferno's a nice shade of grey around the bottom and rear...

some would say its an improvement on the colour when its clean ;)

REALLY needs a clean, hasn't been done in 3 months. The weather just isnt on my side at the moment though, so might chuck it through the new local conveyor car wash
 
  BG 182

  172 ph2

I just noticed the nice friendly mechanic who MOTd my car has left some nice marks on the paint on both front quarter panels...won't **** off this Leeds based garage as they are apparently highly rated on here (I thought they were s**t though, overcharged me, kept me waiting over an hour after they said it would be raining, now this) so will be getting the IP out when it stops raining for more than 8 seconds :mad:

Bah humbug!!!
 
  Shed.

always dark by the time im done so i never get to see the final result lol. then it rains during the night and omg what was the point lol ??
 
  fiesta 1.25
