Normal Service Has Resumed... 56k: No.

[Christopher]

Since my fingers can barely type, due to the cold, i'll keep it short. (no jokes please)

I'd not cleaned it for nearly ten weeks. The interior was immaculate, but that couldn't be said for the exterior.

So i had an early start, fired up the snow foam and Karcher, left that to soak, then tackled the wheels, which i was worried about... as they were pretty grim. Came up well though! Megs products. :approve:

I then clayed it with Sonus and Megs QD and mopped with a Der Wunder towel.

Then i used my new toy... Megs G220 Orbital. Absolutely love it. Sonus products and pads again. I won't bore people with the procedures, since this isn't a detailing thread. I corrected a few little imperfections that had been nagging me, but mainly used it not for correction today.

A few sneaky ones of the Old Fella's new toy in there too... his Christmas present was a bit better than mine. :dapprove: Awesome thing though, XKR Supercharged. 400bhp. And yes, they're 20's lol

Hope you all had a good New Year an' that

Chris

And five hours later...

[f0xy]

So the facebook messages from your Mrs asking if the G220 was any good went to good use, good job I said yes it was

 

[Christopher]

Cheers

It took me ages to correct the bonnet to the level i wanted, but the results are awesome. So much happier with the state of it now. I sealed it with Jeff's Acrylic, too... so it should be reet for a fair few weeks now. :approve:
