I'd have put these straight into the progress thread http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?338628-The-Dark-Knight....-Progress-Thread&highlight= but feel the effort and results gained should stand alone.
had Christopher and Bifcaids over today for a few hours to remove the crap from the megane, foam her, clay and give her a quick machine polish. Myself and mat-nos had been busy earlier on checking over the rear beam, bleeding the brakes and sorting her so car was ready for when they arrived.
Now i'm no detailer, i'll try to be descriptive but I'm crap at all that so I'll just post up what I can remember.
car was snowfoamed/cleaned off, then shampoo'd... love how snowfoaming actually makes the dirt drip off. the stuff hitting the drive was practically brown.
child at play.
still cant get over the amount of dirt a snowfoam pulls off, was really impressed.
All towel dried off with their posh microfibres.
I forgot to picture the claying, lets just say erm it was realllllllly needed.
then the boys set to work. Pretty much going in a clockwork direction from the front.
bonnet after 2 passes.
N/S
then they worked around the back, HiViz boy helping.
quick reflection checkup, white marks are polish btw..
Mikes turn as cwrissy was tired...
Machine work on one side and rear by chris and mike set about nook and crannies and roof (chris couldnt reach) which i gotta admit was a bloody mess...
Finished off with some caruba meguiars stuff.
j'presentee TDK.
(All in the detail)
as per my progress thread the cars still an absolute mess but at least she's alot cleaner and can now go to B'ham to she his highness at BTM.
Thanks and sorry for the dull as fcuk Manchester weather, the fact i've missed loads off, neighbours weeds and my lack of camera skills in an boring location.
