I love iceberg!

[oliver.james]

For a 'boring silver', iceberg comes up lovely with a bit of work imo!

Spent a bit of time over the last couple of days going over the car.

If anyone's interested in products used, etc; snowfoamed, washed with dodo juice supernatural, clayed with ag clay and rapid detailer, washed with dodo juice supernatural again, polished with SRP, sealer with EGP and waxed with dodo juice supernatural.

Really pleased with the results actually, so thought I'd get some quick photos/be a photo *****.

I'm determined to get myself a machine polisher this summer too. It's one of things I think I'll get year after year, but never have! Would like to give it a try.

Come up pretty well

That's fantastic that, love those wheels

 

[NickM5c]

My 172 was that colour and I think it's one if the best out of all of the 172/182 colours. Cleaned up and in the sunlight it looks awesome with a nice blue hint to the silver. Nice example you have there.

 

[Hixle]

Lovely as per usual mate, big fan of this car.

I'm exactly the same with the machine polisher, lol! Been putting it off for far too long!

This is my favourite cup on the forum - by a mile.

A credit to you sir.

 

[Coby.]

God I wish my car was that tidy.

2118's are still my favourite RS wheels.

 

[Jon.G]

My favourite Iceberg on here! The wheel and lows combo really compliment the colour. Excellent

 

[Arctic_182]

WOW I've had 2 iceberg 172's nice colour

 

[Marky_]

So good. Where'd you get the wheel nuts from?

 

[Austin-182]

I love "youre" iceberg! Looks class the 4 pots look the nuts!!

 

[cosmicremedy]

Truly epic... 2118's are perfect.

Thanks, I'm happy with the results. It's the first time I've spent a decent amount of time on it for a long while actually.

I parked next to a silver 182 (titanium?) and the difference was really noticeable; could really see the blue tint in the iceberg.

Thanks! I'm definitely going to get one this year haha :rasp:

Mine too! Probably one of the few people that prefer them to turinis in looks!

They're made by taper-pro/TPI, but I got them through sixonetwo ltd

I love "youre" iceberg! Looks class the 4 pots look the nuts!!

Thanks, I'd like seperate bells and rotors for the 4 pots when the discs need replacing.

Truly epic... 2118's are perfect.

Thanks!

[Owen]

Looks awesome mate, the bolts really set off the 2118s

Quite jealous of the 4 pots

 

[Johndolan1979]

Very nice, looks like a lot of hard work and elbow grease has gone into the motor. Love the wheels too.

Thanks mate, I need to do something with the locking wheel nut, it looks a mess compared to the polarised ones.

Very nice, looks like a lot of hard work and elbow grease has gone into the motor. Love the wheels too.

Just been looking on cleanyourcar.co.uk at machine polishers; the menzerna intro kit seemed really good value, so I've ordered myself one.

Ordered some dodo juice light fantastic wax and some more dodo juice supernatural wax too

 

[CabinFever]

I really like this car, mate. Iceberg is so underrated and those wheels look superb!

Well done.

 

[Jimbo_M]

This is also my favourite iceberg on here! is a beaut mate, will you be venturing to the FCS in this?

 

[oliver.james]

Thanks for the comments.

Yes mate, I'll be going to FCS again this year.

This was it there last year, looking slightly different to now;

 

[Quid]

Love your iceberg mate. I've just got myself some light fantastic and it works very well with iceberg (IMO)

It was between that and diamond white.

But, diamond white's a hard wax and I've, as yet, not tried using hard wax, so thought I'd stick to the safe option with light fantastic.

 

[Quid]

What do you use to clean existing wax off when detailing? I want to try the AG HD cleanser.

 

[oliver.james]

Mine hadn't been waxed properly for a while, so there wasn't really any wax left on it lol!

However, I do have some AG HD cleanser, but haven't used it yet.

 

[M40 CUO]
