i would get a PC if my car was a different colour

Yeh and that is also a scuff to the top left hand side of the handle. There were loads of hairline scratches around the drivers door locks as well, which havent photographed well, but were removed. Its really does look loads better and the people who have seen it before and after (in the flesh) were amazed by difference.

[Adam]

[Evandim*]

lol yes and cheaper..

 

[Tim]

this queue is getting a bit long now . lol

 

[Tigger]

I sense another group-buy comming along lol

They are an awesome bit of kit and I'm only starting to get the "swing of things" with mine

With a black car ... I would buy you own, two uses and it will have payed for itself anyway.

 

[Turkish]

It's worth saying though that merely owning a PC doth not a detailer make. A rough idea of what to use in terms of pads and products is one thing but actually acheiving good results needs practice and a wealth of knowledge. I've had my PC for probably about 8 or so months and used it multiple times and got the car looking good but Brazo came over at the weekend and made me look clueless. Technique is as much a part of getting good results as the correct tools/products. Even down to the speed at which you pass panels and the pressure you apply.

 

[Tigger]

I'd be in the same boat as you Loony - got a lot to learn about my PC

 

[Rich]

Practice, practice and practice, and then use it on a car you care about lol

 

[ben_p]

yup,. the results wer getting are jsut better and better...we have a wide range of products and have done around 10 cars now ..

the queue is long. but we will try to fit all in before fcs

 

[Ad]

as ben said, we have a done about 10 different cars not with differing finishes and paint.

I would like to say that is purely a hobby....... It is strangely statisfying... even if that sounds odd.

 

[Maz]

^^ You two gay boys are odd anyway .. lol :clown:

:rasp: luvs yas .. hehe

 

[Ed_182]

how long is the queue?

 

[Ad]
