Metallic fill/gloss

[JD]

A new to me car is in pretty good nick but it is the first time I’ve had a really vibrant metallic colour.

I’m not fussed by 1000% correction as I once was - I’m interested, for now, in a damn good combination of glaze and lsp.

Any thoughts, machine friendly pref.

Nice car! Make sure you have break down cover!

One doesn’t simply post a s**t pic.
Where’s all the other pics and write up??

you’ve changed. And not in a good way.

It'll come. Do you want pictures of my new Golf Alltrack too?

My Westfield and Golf have been less reliable! They get a bad rep as people don't look after them. They're needy!

CarPro Essence and whatever LSP you have in your kit?

Or just whip some tripple over it as a quick fix until spring/summer.

No. Not as long as I’ve got a hole in my ass.

Cheers Andy. Triple was the go to for a quick once over but I want something more modern as that’s been a good go to for 5-7 years now.

I’ve ordered essence and some carpro finishing pads, cheers.

Last time I used triple with a ceramic wax on the outgoing car and the Cerbera.

I just remembered I used it on my Mums old Lexi which was a similar colour.

Hope you and the family are well.

Bang on!

Very well thanks - we welcomed my son into the world on the 2nd September so the issue may be finding the time to do all this! Hope you guys are well mate.

Properly incredible choice. Jealous.

Hope you’re well chap.

As per text Durban! Congrats again. The billy bobs miss you!

Depending on how quick you want to be, bh cleanser fluid and double speed wax? Or infinity wax dark glaze and super gloss wax.

Finished this lotus in the latter combo today...

That man! Thanks fella. Yeah, I’ll post up a thread next weekend when the other newbie arrives - all change.

Thing is, I’ll want it to be in depth now as I’m stuck inside... but realistically, I’ll get a few hours max with little one here! I can get around the wet work, come back to it etc. Love the suggestion from [mention]Coby. [/mention] as essence looks to put down some protection. So again, could come back and lsp it with something naughty during summer and easy spray on AF Aqua coat for the rest of the time.

Get the Zymol carbon looked out!

Well holy s**t - essence! Brilliant stuff! Only tested on the daily after some atone chip/scratch fill paint/wet sanding.

V impressed mate. Thanks.

You need to do some time for that "government approved..." sticker. Shocking.

I'm good thanks, not seen your face for a very long time and I'm now living about 15mins from your parents house, well if they're still at the school.

Hope you're well.
