My Mates Black Clio.



  MK2 Audi TT - 2.0T dsg.
Ok guys, this is my friend Karl's car, the car was done over a 4 hour period, while I was in the middle of doing my 182 the other day.
Basically, it was a total wreck! He told me he had washed it once since he and his girlfriend picked it up from the dealers! I knew it was going to be trouble as this guy enjoys giving this car a good thrashing....
(I Hope his lady friend doesn’t read this!) :doublesho

Here are some pictures to give you an idea.

I felt like I was helping a cow give birth to a calf when I had my hand up his wheel arches!

The state of this car, I don't know how he calls himself a man!!! :p

The plan was:

1. A GOOD soak down with the hose.
2. Wash with Megs NXT
3. Clay the car with a mixture of gold class and water in a spray bottle.
4. Wash the car again with Megs Gold class
5. Attack the worst area's with the PC.
Due to time restrictions we only got to do 75% of the car with a SRX1 pad using Megs #83 I would have liked to have followed this up with #80 on a SFX2 pad and some kind of LSP. But it looks like this will be in another session.
6. AG Bumpercare
7. Megs tyre gel.


After 2 washes and a clay:

The car was dried with a Meg’s water magnet and then QD'd with some Meg’s supreme shine MF's before we got out the PC and started to with the #83

That's as far as we got, but I think he was happy with this much!


Thanks for looking.

You had your work cut out with that but a very nice finish. The PC really gave it that extra from looking at the pictures.

Is he going to at least wash it from now on?

Looks really good, doesnt look like you could trust him with a set of alloys though, looking at the state of those hub caps :eek: ;)
