PC'd the Black Rallye

[darren_rallye]

Today I spent the day PC'ing my Rallye for the first time.

Method:

Rinse with Karcher and Super Snow Foam
Wheels, arches, dressing - Autobrite
Shampoo with Megs 62
No claying - that was done last week
Dried with Megs Water Magnet
PC with Menzerna Intensive Polish on polishing pad
PC with Menzerna Final Finish on SFX3 pad
EGP applied by hand and left for a few hours

Before pics:

Despite a good clean last week the car was looking crap. There were also several pad scratchces that needed to be corrected.

The paint was reflecting, but lacked depth and clarity.

Snow foam:

After shampoo:

The car was prepared:

PC'd on the left, not on the right:

awesome work mate, great finish!! how did you find the menzerna, is it easy to work with?

 

[darren_rallye]

Menzerna was very easy to use, yep.

Doesn't clog up at all.

Stunning mate, I want one.

How much do these go for with reasonable milage? 1.6 8v yeah?

 

[Fletcher]

Are all black 106 Rallye's left hand drive?

 

[darren_rallye]

You could only get white and blue Rallyes in the UK, so an imported black one is likely to be LHD. It depends where you get it from.

Rallyes are 1.6 8V, yep. And you could get a nice one in the £2ks

Also, there's a 100 bhp 1.3 8v series one, which are cheaper.

Looks spot on, good work. Of course now that it is so tidy you can't do the rallying...
